Is the PearPC project dead?

Postby DasFox » Tue Sep 23, 2008 2:24 am

It certainly doesn't look like anything is going on, and I'm sure this has been discussed before, so please forgive me for asking, but I didn't notice any definite answers as to what is going on.

I've been a Unix/Linux geek since the 90s, never been into Macs until they started becoming OS X, so I have now jumped into PearPC since I only have a AMD XP 3000+ box.

I have Tiger 10.4 running really nice and OpenVPN Tap installed with the network working, but their is no sound. :(
It really runs quite fast and smooth at 1024x768

I hope someone awakens the project, I'm certain there must be people around the world that still don't have SSE2/SSE3 CPUs...

All I want to see is just plain ole AC97 sound support coming next...

The latest I heard was that a brave new user named redscorp re-wrote a few versions of Pear PC 0.4 and even threw in a networking feature known as "pcap". But this was a while back. And I also read that one of the main developers of Pear PC died a long time ago. As long as there are hard-working developers for this emulator, the project is far from dead.
