There are no pre-compiled packages for mipsel. I have quite a list of
them but they were compiled while I was building new kernels off of
the release tree, so they may not all work for a stock 2.0 kernel.

And if you think the Qube is slow to build packages, try a hpcmips
based machine... Painful. I've been using my Qube as the package build
machine for the hpcmips box.

Here's the current list of what I've got:

Again, not sure if all of these will work with a stock kernel. There's
a way to query a package to find out I'm sure... Just haven't done it
before...
