How are your plans about supporting OS X in the future?
We, for our part, are eager to push dev on OS X:
- with the patches of Gwenole and pbrook, qemu 0.8.2 builds great on OS
X ppc and intel (gcc4). All tests are OK.
Maybe I can merge part of it if the changes are not too intrusive ?
- I'm willing to rewrite my OS X block.c patches for hardware CD-ROM
support.
OK.
- I've just written a complete new cocoa frontend based on Anthony
shmem patches (quartz and openGL). (only problem is the 4mb limit on OS
X atm)
Good. Why is cocoa.m not sufficient ?
- There are some other small patches like basic bootorder support that
are ready, too.
This one will be merged ASAP.
As qemu was one of the first usable emulators on OS X, it is still
widely used and known.
Things even look like we get included on the C'T disk next month
IMHO, you should concentrate on porting kqemu on Mac OS X. I don't think
it should be more more complicated than the other ports. I can provide
support for that if someone if motivated. With kqemu you would be able
to compete with the other (and more expensive !) virtualizers...
Regards,
Fabrice.
