Most
people come here via a search engine and looking for
"open+firmware+tutorial". The ever more outdated
Open Firmware Tutorial
can be found here. I will eventually update this and probably include
information about newer machines too. But until then, this is it.
A few considerations regarding Mac OS X for Intel processors can be
found on my
Apple-Intel homepage.
And this is a handy tool for
controlling XFree86 on Mac OS X that I wrote because I needed it myself.
The script (testx) for Mac OS X
10.2
The GUI for the script (TestXPane)
for Mac OS X 10.2
The source code for the GUI (TestXPane
sources)
The very outdated documentation or user manual (html/pdf)
Note that you
DO NOT NEED
TestXPane on Mac OS X 10.3 ("Panther"). Nor should you even
attempt to
use it.
testx script for Mac OS X 10.3 and
10.4,
supports Apple X11 only (new version 3.0 uploaded May 2005)
I have also a
simplified UNIX family
tree. Enjoy!
And this is an outdated how-to about
Mac OS
X configuration (Sendmail etc.) and a
new
version for Panther.
