@spihunter:well, thanks, thats my point. otherwise im really fond a(both) natami and owb 68k (and other developments). even if i have to revide my previous opinion of ppc/os4 as useless, given my late experience with some software on aos i would wissssh to run .. a little faster. but i suppose i willm manage another several months without an upgrade. sigh..

Is this still being developed? I say because now there is a better SDL


no, in fact it has never been developed for amiga (68k), the compiles here were only meant as a blatant demonstration that it would not work or work so poorly that it doesnt pay to bother.

in the meantime the development has been given up also on os4 where the port originates from and the sources are locked away, so that none can do anything about it.

as actually working alternatives for amiga there are two possibilities so far: netsurf port by artur, which is available from aminet and aros owb which is also based on sdl, while actually working and providing a simple but complete user interface. to run it you have to run aros68k though.

But what I want to know is does it work or not? Because some were saying it works, that's a simple question. If it works I would like to try it with a fast emulation with PPC that we've got now.

this is a thread from 2008. what do you think, when none is posting about this in the meantime? right. it doesnt work satisfactory. i was one of the first to try, it especially on actual amiga, as i usually do. i did even have some communication about it with joerg afair, so far its applicable. but none stops you to try for yourself seven years later.

btw. ppc emu under uae doesnt speed up your 68k. except you run os4 which is anyway slower, because it emulates 68k itself. hope you realize.
