New to the List, X on A1200 with NetBSD?
Hi, I'm both new to the list and new to NetBSD for the amiga. I just
recently purchased my 68882, so I'm now set to run NetBSD on my a1200
with 10Megs of Ram, and a 50mhz 68030 (with MMU).
I'd like to take a shot at running X Windows also, and was wondering
if someone could tell me what kind of performance I can expect from X
Windows on my Amiga. The FAQ recommends at least 6MB of RAM, so I
should be ok.
I'm guessing it may be out of the question to run any sort of 3D
multiplayer games under X on the amiga due to the conversion for the
graphics chips slowing it down?
Am I correct here? If so, would a graphics excellerator for the a1200
(from Chunky to Amiga bitplanes) help?
Is there alot of good free software for NetBSD/Amiga?
Thanks everyone,
-tom
