Stephane Letz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> did the MacOSX port. There are at least a few additional changes needed for 0.80.0 to work on MacOSX. AFAICT, they are all MacOSX-dependent, not PowerPC-dependent. Very few of his changes are processor-dependent. This work is awaiting Stephane's availability. > I suspect some code that are #ifdef __powerpc__ could be specific to > MacOSX. I think you're right, and I am interested in clarifying anything that is machine dependent as opposed to system dependent. Stephane is generally careful to use... #if defined(__APPLE__) && defined(__POWERPC__) around his changes. The `#else' clause contains the Linux version for all architectures. JACK *should* support Linux PowerPC without much work. It might even work already, given an ALSA-supported sound device. If someone wants to test it, I will gladly accept bug reports and provide patches. If I had a PowerPC machine, I'd do it myself. Regards, -- Jack O'Quin Austin, Texas, USA
