Yes custom developed, we are a research lab. The question is not why freebsd, for me the question is "why not freebsd". It just needs good drivers for 3D graphics cards, the usual GL libraries (for instance), and the applications will appear.Paulo wrote:
You are forgetting that there are many people that really need fast 3D graphics. In the place I work there are people working on computer animation, 3D models visualization on linux, solaris and freebsd.
I wonder what kind of applications they would use on FreeBSD for such tasks. Custom developed? And if so, why on FreeBSD, which really isn't a logical choice for a 3D graphics workstation platform?
There is something that intrigates me, I use FreeBSD since 1.x and I still see people saying that
FreeBSD is not for this kind of application or that. Sorry but I don't know of any limitation in the OS that precludes its use with computer graphics applications, office, multimedia etc. Just bring in the necessary drivers and libraries and it will be as good as any other OS for developing any kind of applications.
