Ah, someone noticed x264 problem and made a patch! https://code.videolan.org/videolan/x264/-/merge_requests/196

I tried to add few lines into help output and README. (attached) Still not quite work for my case (booting self-created cd with yaboot/Linux) https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/bootable-ppc-cdrom.2476063/post-34401285

Found this via qemu patches submission. Note, this is NOT MY WORK, I only post it here for wider coverage. https://codeberg.org/cjab/ati-tests

Thanks for testing! On segfault, if you issue "make install" it should add bin/ffmpeg/plugin.opts file, where you can add new ffmpeg filter name, commented out (with #) or with default params. On packaging issue ... does attached patch help?

patch should be already in our git, so you can pull inside your ppc64le VM and see how it builds there with --without-thirdparty (I also disabled libdpx and lv2). Does x264 encoder by itself works on ppc64le as in Arch POWER distro? For me it was failing at some frames, x265 worked fine but was...

Another application to try might be Bochs from git, you can grab Geforce bioses from discussion and see how far win95 can go ;) https://github.com/bochs-emu/Bochs

Got cinelerra-gg working on Arch/ppc64le (send simple patch for guicast/makefile to our mail list), actual x264 render sadly corrupted at some frames? https://mastodon.online/@Andrew_R/115841754848450541

Thanks for trying! You can disable internal x256 build with --disable-x265 configure switch, or just disable whole thirdparty build with --without-thirdparty (but then you may need some patience installing -devel dependencies or disable components one by one because configure's logic...

Can you also test if cinelerra-gg works on Linux/ppc64 ? I tested ppc32 variant on qemu, but 64bit emulation there is not so fast for my host, so if anyone can test our git tree at https://git.cinelerra-gg.org/goodguy/cinelerra.git I'll be happy to hear your results/errors. In theory build...

https://web.archive.org/web/20250226190924/https://www.powerpc-notebook.org/en/ This powerpc laptop project still alive, but ... hardware design is hard and costly, especially for small product run. May be something like neoBeBOX will be a bit simpler to do? At least if Haiku gained ppc/smp...

This thread made me curious and first project surfacing into google search results (from reddit) was this: https://www.mikekohn.net/micro/powerpc_fpga.php Introduction does not say what kind of PowerPC it is, I guess most earlier 60* ? Edit: there is also Microwatt core, but it targets...

very interesting, from reading of linux src comments ("/* 32 bits SMP can't NAP */" from linux-2.6/arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/smp.c) I thought it was impossible! Any way to track what exactly CPU director does?
