Has anyone run Linux on a Mac at the same time as running the Mac os? How did it work? For example, assume you want to run OpenOffice.org for Linux on a Mac in a window, while at the same time running OSX. Could you simply switch windows with the mouse? -- Best regards, djt Dennis J.

I am running both Suse Linux an Windows on Macbook using parallels. You must use ctrl +alt to release the mouse from the Linux back to windows as they do not have parallels tools for Linux. With windows with the parallels tools, it acts just like any other window on the OS X.

I haven't done it, but there are virtualization products for this. Recently I read about VMware creating a Mac version: http://www.vmware.com/company/news/releases/mac.html Also, parallels can do it: http://www.parallels.com/en/products/workstation/ -- Svetoslav Milenov (Sunny) Even the most advanced equipment in the hands of the ignorant is just a pile of scrap. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
