Hi Eirik, > what can be expected of the PPC port these days? It boots multi-user on NewWorld machines. What does work: - tinderbox builds (well, when binutils 2.15 is completed). - syscons with USB keyboard/mouse - GEM ethernet - internal ATA in PIO mode (yes, a bit slow) - libthr What's in the pipe: - kld support - make release, miniiso. - syscons support for notebook keyboard/trackpad - libkse Further down the pipe: - X.org - ATA DMA - BMAC+ ethernet (iMac revA-D, B&W G3) - Altivec - G5 support > Is it at all useful for anything Useful for anything that FreeBSD is useful for :-) > Haven't seen any traffic on this list for a while, so I sorta kinda > thought the project had died.. Rumours of the projects death have been greatly exaggerated ! later, Peter.
