Cell BE SDK on Ubuntu

[Chaman Singh Verma]

Hello,

I am interested in developing applications on Cell BE on my Intel Core 2
machine which
has Ubuntu 64bit OS installed.

I was able to download the simulator from IBM site, but it seems that IBM
provides Cell
BE SDK only for RHEL5.1 and Fedora 7.

My question is:  Can I use this SDK on Ubuntu also ? Can someone give
insights into
what are the differences and difficulties in porting RHEL5.1 and Fedora 7 to
Ubuntu and
what could be the reasons that companies like IBM are sticking to only these
two platform
instead of being general on OS.

Thanks.
