![]() I will give it a try in the other direction one of these days, i.e. In any case, if this is really true, it's a few points for FreeBSD! 8 or 16 gigabytes of DDR memory for our AGP PowerMac G5’s, and 4 gigabytes for the equivalent iMac G5 I thought about trying this. What if we could double our G5’s by using ECC DDR (as long as it’s unbuffered like the regular stuff). see if some command-line tools from a Mach-O NetBSD distro can be run on OSX It got me thinking the Mac Pro uses ECC memory. Moreover, some event could shorten the delay: if some Quartz display server become available for NetBSD (for instance as an open source Mac OS X remote desktop project), it would remove the major problem." o To reset the system NVRAM, enter reset-nvram. Method II: At the chime, hold down Command + Option + O + F until youve arrived at the Open Firmware prompt. Press Control + Z to switch to Open Firmware. It is difficult to give an idea of when NetBSD will be able to run Aqua applications, because we do not really know the issues we are going to encounter and solve. Method I: At the chime, hold down the Option key. Mac OS X Programs using the X11 graphical user interface such as Matlab or Open Office should work too, though nobody explored that area yet. "As of today, NetBSD-current is able to run most command line tools from Mac OS X. Part of the conclusions of the second paper: I have gone through the second one which I also found by chance, looks like while most of the CLI stuff is okay, a lot of the X11 stuff could be an issue (as NetBSD uses X-Windows and Darwin/OSX XQuartz that are similar but somewhat different), but the author states that XFree86 provides XDarwin which provides IOKit, IOFramebuffer and IOHIDSystem. Emmanuel Dreyfus (September 2004), Mac OS X binary compatibility on NetBSD: challenges and implementation (PDF).Purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan to extend your service and support to three full years. "Mach and Darwin binary compatiblity for NetBSD/powerpc and NetBSD/i386". Your Power Mac G5 comes with 90 days of free telephone support and a one-year limited warranty. ![]() "Some versions of NetBSD have had Mach-O support added as part of an implementation of binary compatibility, which allowed some Mac OS 10.3 binaries to be executed.
