is that i have it so far running now (a lot of thanks to Dieter Mayer |
|
who made all this possible by sending me a Decstaion 5000/200 - |
|
thanks) and i have also started to create snapshots of OpenBSD/pmax |
|
and X11 for OpenBSD/pmax from time to |
|
time - you may get them from <a |

<h3><strong>Differences to NetBSD/pmax:</strong></h3> |
|
<ul> |
|
<li>we have native shared libraries |
|
<li>the port is self-hosting (i.e. it only uses in-tree tools - there is |
|
no need for externel binutils). |
|
<li>i try too keep the release of snapshots and releases close to |
|
releasing X11 binaries too (X11R5 servers and X11R6 clients - both |
|
compiled with ProjectRoot /usr/X11R6) |
|
<li>you get all the usual OpenBSD improvements, additions and fixes |
|
</ul> |
|
|
|
</p> |
|
Aside from that the hardware support is nearly identical to NetBSD/pmax. |
