as was stated before UAE wont _currently_
(and i use that work specially, as if someone
not me,got off their arse as it were, it could be done)
run PPC based apps/ect ,theres code about that
can use native Gfx cards and AHI MMU ect, the
truble is noone seems interested in rearanging
the main UAE tree to include all these things
so it upto each person to go hunting and
trying their best to repatch their needs into the
base UAE of the time currently 0.8.22 for *nix based
tree.
i really wish someone that understands these things would take the time to include themn back into the CVS tree and fix the damb ./configure make
that were introduced in the 0.8.* series, for instance
just about all 0.7.* will compile on mac and RTP
os,s but they dont have JIT or BSDsockets as standard.
the good news is that YES YellowDogPPC linux
runs on all newworld (i.e the newer macs in the last few years) G3 & G4 im running it right now,
and iv got the latest release (admitedly a lot older than the winUAE) 0.8.22 working with JIT (and its in no way slow i can attest to that) and BSDsocket
piccasso4 emulation.
my mac is just a bog standard G4/400 256meg
and it seems to run web apps just fine, i assume thats what u want to do, im not a very dimanding
user as regards the flashy Gfx ect and fact
im quite content with sid2/THOR/Ibrowse on a standard workbench without backdrop, but if i wanted to i;m sure this PPC could handle anything
that u wanted as regards 3.1.
there are a few problems as regards the compile,
a left/right key problem, a mouse pointerproblem
and a few other bits but i can put that down to my lack of understanding with gcc and the fact my YD
install didnt go to well and i had to wingit with the
gnome install and the kde wouldnt work at first.
right here the meat , as regards YelllowDog (aka redhat 9.0 for the PPC) simply install the standard developer apps, gcc ect on YD go to here
http://amiga.nvg.org/uae/messages/8389.htmland download the bsdsocket patch, also get
the 0.8.22 from
http://amiga.nvg.org/uaetheres a link near the top,read the advice the boys
gave me on the thread and you should be set,
as i said, dont forget to put the bsdsocket.library
in your amiga's libs: dir or it will report not bsd stack
conpiled in type of thing.
if someone wants me to annon upload the
yellowDogPPC compiled UAE (working JIT/bsd/piccaso4) and the bsdsocket.library
let me know were to put it and i will ftp it
when i get the chance.
no emailing u as that gets to be to much messing
and takes my bandwidth away to many times,
imm happly upload it once so everyone that wants
it can get it off some free webside ftp server.
understand ,im not a programmer, so no fixes
from me, i just tryed and managed to follow
what it said on the tin and managed to get
this YD PPC uae working to some degree
good enough until the read coders among
you make the effort to fix and update the real
UAE CVS tree with fully working configure make
for PPC and perhaps x86RTP, id love to use
uae with full piccasso4, JIT and bsdsocket, anyone
ready to try and fix them or what ?. :-?
