MAME for Power

<< < (2/11) > >>

q66:
I patch it with -mlong-double-64 for glibc systems and it seems to be pretty harmless. Glibc supports dual ABI, so for pure libc consumers it's 100% harmless, and there aren't many libraries using long double in their APIs, as far as MAME dependencies go it's none, as far as I can tell.

MauryG5:
MPC sorry but apart from that as I said several times I am not a Linux expert let alone a programmer, but I don't think I will install a distro just to use Mame ... There is no patience maybe they will do it later and later  in any case I read that Void is not compatible with Power in any case I do not care Void

ClassicHasClass:
q66 is the Void Power maintainer, so.

MauryG5:
So I turn to Q66 which I have already seen to be one of the most experienced of both Linux and Power architecture, if you have any links where you can go find something, give me a nod ...

q66:
If your distro doesn't build it, you'll have to build it yourself; if you can't build it yourself, make a request in your distro. I don't know if Fedora builds it, as I don't use Fedora. The patches are out there, in Void it works for ppc64le as well as ppc64 and ppc, I tested it on my Talos and Blackbird.
