From what I understand, Gwenole is the author of the PowerPC emulation and he's ported SheepShaver from BePPC to Linux x86. I may be wrong but thats what I understood.
I think Christian Bauer is in the picture due to previous efforts with SheepShaver on BePPC. And I believe he is trying to integrate Gwenole's code into Basilisk II.
But I may have that all backwards. Some places that are good to check out on this subject are
here.
I managed to get this up and running under Mandrake Linux under VPC on WindowsXP. It was fast enough to run at a speed that allowed me move the windows around well enough. I tried to install Warcraft II, since I doubt the emulator's graphics are going to be real speedy, but VirtualPC crashed.
I used a 4MB ROM image, which is required, from a PowerMac 8500. All things considered I am actually surprised it ran that well since I was running an unoptimized emulator in an unoptimized emulator running an OS that is not officially supported.
The only thing that bothers me is now I have to rearrange, repartition and install linux on my machine for real so I can see how fast it can really go.
Talk to you all later
