hear that BBRV taeget the chinese market! soooo much money there!

timofonic, we don't have any customers who need radiation-hardened processors right now :)

Well, for other than strictly embedded uses, I can't honestly say that a country like China (or any other) would be serving its best interests to get involved with any OS without a memory-protected multiuser model - POSIX and Open Source is the way to go - and also because there are high-quality [semi]proprietary OSes that would be useable in conjunction with the Open Source ones. There is a lot of weight to that POSIX connection and its porting implications. I also believe for more sophisticated embedded uses that having those same abilities/features has become increasingly important - save for occasional odd-spec'd projects (which could nevertheless be quite lucrative, but harder to sell).

But Pegasos: I think that is a different story altogether : }

Which is to say, the Abox is rather limited for those intents ; }

Well, just to give a feedback on this issue as promised...

In the meanwhile I got a chance to test the new OF update, but the problem still existed. Thanks to Sven and Nicolas the probable reason was discovered. There seems to be a problem with some 750cxe opcodes (namely dcbz) which are used in Linux, but its errata not properly handled by the OF.
Because the OF update didn't changed anything for me (except the support of the GbE), I went back to the last public release.

Anyway, a new public release of the new OF update would be nice.

Still far from being usuable, but at least better than a kernel panic twice a day...

Hi, Bbrv , you search for a more extended market for morphos, one of those will be the Next Gen consoles like Ps3 or xbox2 morphos on those machine will be amazing cause of the prices and the speed (3ghz of pure power) it sounds great if we can target those hardware !
i suppose no new pegasos will be released whtih cell processors ? Why ?

No comment...

However, there will be some VERY BIG News this week.

We all know why the Freescale effort got bumped off the track, but we are working it back into the scheme of things and the news coming this week will be the biggest news ever. Just wait!

Hi Pippi

Remember that morphos is very little and light when compared to MacOS, and maybe the emulation would simply
better.

I like morphOS very much, of course I prefer to use
the board I bought (Peg II), but morhpos in x86
boxes is a nice idea, could be this the
beggining of a kinda revolution ? ;-DDD

Regards/Saludos

Mine is on tuesday 20th .. dont spoil the news by announcing it on monday ;)

bah, mine is at 25th *and* I am getting 30, so I need much comfort ;)

Mine is 26th, 30 too ! joojoj

I don´t like presents, but a good new is always
welcome when talking about this great Pegasos/MorphOS
combo.

Ok i`ll maybe (new rumor ) MOS1.5 or OS4 or PowerOS ported to Pegasos2 announced at Amiga Big Bash 3

I'd say it's CPU related.

hi!

well, if it´s CPU related and he says is the BIGGEST news ever then maybe is a POWER5 based pegasos server

Aaaahh!!! not, wait!!!!!! it´s freescale based news

@bbrv

When will we see MorphOS 1.4.6 with Altivec support?

[ Edited by Crumb on 2005/9/22 2:30 ]

When we turn into a real Company with more BIG strategic partners and steady cashflow... don't worry, it won't be long.

We will be very happy to restart solid support MorphOS again, and will.

Any word on Peg2.5 / Peg2 selling with faster G4s....you know I need something to spend my tax return on next year

I would consider a dual G4 card with a slight increase in clockspeed to 1.5 GHz would make it very compatible with today's computers out there... a G5 is probably out of the question (on the Peg-II) and so is hiking the speed upwards 2+ Ghz... then there was the question of the price of such a card .

@BBRV

" A MAJOR IT COMPANY HAS AGREED TO RESELL MorphOS! "

Resell MorphOS with what?
A new PPC G4 Pegasos III?
Is that Efika+MorphOS?
Or for the Playstation III?
