Date: 18 Aug 1995 21:09:43 GMT Organization: NASA Goddard Space Flight Center -- Greenbelt, Maryland USA Lines: 16 Message-ID: <412vin$s0k@post.gsfc.nasa.gov> NNTP-Posting-Host: nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov I am currently running Linux at home instead of NetBSD solely because I want to run Larry Gritz's BMRT (Blue Moon Rendering Tools), a shareware, Renderman compliant rendering package. Larry only distributes binaries and the only Unix-on-PC-clone binaries available are for Linux. I would very much like to run NetBSD-current instead of Linux, but before I switch, I'd like to be sure that BMRT will run under the NetBSD Linux compatibility mode. So, has anyone tried this? The BMRT package is available from ftp://ftp.seas.gwu.edu/pub/graphics/BMRT, if anyone wants to grab it. Thanks, Jim -- -- James W.
