[opensuse] Mac software on OpenSUSE 10.3?
Hi all, my son has an Apple Mac. Others in the family have OpenSUSE 10.3 Lots of software is prepared for Mac, like the Encyclopaedia Britannica I purchased last year. If it runs on a Mac, which is OS-X (Darwin), can it be made to run on OpenSUSE too?? :-) Al -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

No. At least, I've never seen such thing. -- Renan Birck ~ Canoas, RS, Brasil "Quando tudo que você tem é um martelo, todos os seus problemas se parecem com os seus dedões." -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Hi, The OS X provides some propritery technologies, which are not available in Linux (eg. Quartz, Cocoa, ...). Afaik theres nothing like wine for Windows (OSS implementation of the Windows API). You should run the apps in some virtual machine, but you'll probably need a two licences to OS X (IANAL). There are also some emulators of Mac OS and many of them runs on Linux. You should check this list [http://www.macwindows.com/emulator.html#Maconother] The PearPC package is available for OpenSUSE in BuildService [http://software.opensuse.org/search?p=1&q=pearpc&baseproject=openSUSE%3A10.3].

You can run Mac OSX 10.4 (tiger) and 10.5 (Lepoard) in vmware on Opensuse 10.3. Get the iso intel/amd from JAS (bittorrent) and install in vmware - works great!!

No kidding?! That's fantastic. I was sure there were hardware interlocks that the Mac OSX software checked before consenting to run. Are you talking about full Mac OSX, or just Darwin? By the way, what's "JAS?"
Best regards Otto Rodusek.

Run a Mac emulator inside a Windows emulator running on Linux. What do you think this is...a 1960's IBM methodologies festival :-) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
