Ed: Unfortunately, the PowerPC is no longer supported with R@H. That CPU was a good platform and served many users. It looks like the efforts required to support that CPU were greater than the projected contributions. Please continue to crunch R@H on x86 platforms like Intel and AMD. Thx!

It is not correct to say PPC is no longer supported. That's why the message still exists and explains there's just no work right now. There could be some later. These are the v5.98 tasks we see once and a while. Rosetta Moderator: Mod.Sense ID: 64583 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
