Uhhhh.... sorry I'm very irregular so you'll probably have to look for someone else Another minor detail is that I don't own a PC, I'm a Mac user
Indeed: get an SVN checkout and update it every X days, see if it still compiles and runs. If it fails on Windows only, help us find the cause.
jr - you used VMWare or something?
Did you try to compile openMSX on your Mac? The manual is also suitable for OS X You can use a very similar method to build a .dmg file.
In fact, it would be nice to have someone build openMSX on an Intel Mac to check if it still works. Our team only has one member with a Mac (mth), and it's still a PPC one, with an older OS X release (10.3).
I would like to ask wether someone plans to make an openmsx port to the amiga platform or amiga compatible computers ike the Efika,pegasos ii running morphos or the new awaited Amiga Os 4.0 .
I also have a classic amiga with a 68040 at 40mhz and was wondering if it should be possible to update fmsx to amiga.Hans Guijt i think did this years ago and the amiga port was a very nice one done running very well even on 68020 with little ram.
So any other that has an amiga here and plans to port Openmsx ?
Note that as far as I know, you can run Debian GNU/Linux on the Amiga and openMSX should work on the m68k port of Debian on the Amiga...
manuel: no, I did the trial on someone else's PC. Of course, could have done it inside Virtual PC as well if I had VPC (which I don't). And yes, I've been compiling openMSX for ages on my Mac myself because I have a G5 PPC machine and I want to compile a G5 optimized binary. So you could say I already somewhat knew how the compilation is done before doing this Windows excercise I'm currently running OS X 10.4 but might switch over to 10.5 soon, let's see. Sorry I don't have an Intel Mac
I'd love to, but don't have the money to spend on a new computer right now.
double post sorrry!
Manuel the next hours i will probably install Netbsd 3.1 on my amiga...you think i should give a try to compile openmsx there?It is the 68k port of course of netbsd
jr - no problems, it would still be nice if you report any problems you find to us regarding compilation and usage... That goes for everyone of course. Thanks in advance!
nikodr: if that NetBSD has a working C++ compiler and SDL and the other libs can be compiled for it, it will most likely work.
jr - can you explain in which folders you compiled exactly? So, what is the 'home' folder where you ran it?
openMSX compiles fine on FreeBSD and OpenBSD as long as your GCC is recent enough (late 3.x might work, but 4.x is better), so I expect NetBSD will not be a problem if you use a recent GCC.
I have some doubts though about the performance you're going to get on a 40MHz machine. Or do you also own faster Amigas?
