Classic works within Tiger I don't know if this has been mentioned before, but, just in case, at least the latest experimental Qemu build (5.0, with screamer) for macOS can run Classic within its emulation of Mac OS X Tiger. The first time I tried this, a couple of years ago, with an earlier versio...

I've looked for information, but couldn't get a clear picture on how good Qemu might be in virtualizing or emulating non-ARM guest operating systems on Apple Silicon ARM. If VMware and Parallels do not enter the fray of Intel emulation under ARM, our only choice for running things like OS X Tiger, O...

Thanks.

Graphics acceleration?

I'm not sure I've understood some of the latest posts correctly. Has graphics acceleration been achieved on Qemu for OS X guests (like, say, Tiger)? If so, can Front Row run on such virtual machines? If it doesn't work yet, will that goal be achievable in the near future?

Very nice. Thank you!

Runs fine in High Sierra on my Mac Pro 5,1. Many thanks!

Many thanks. That's very helpful.

Experimental builds: 16-06-2018 http://www.open.ou.nl/hsp/downloads3/Qemu-3.0pre-OSX-16062018.zip Qemu built from pre 3.0 source. This build allows defining the machine model in 3 ways: mac99,via=pmu (provides the PMU required to run 10.5, defaults to usb-mouse and keyboard) mac99,via=pmu-adb (prov...

Please note the inclusion of the pc-bios folder, which requires the -L pc-bios parameter in the command line for Qemu to find some required files s...

I still have to run some of the diagnostic steps you provided, but I've just run Mac OS 9.2.2 on Qemu for macOS without tap/tun and Software Update was able to tell me there were no updates for my "computer". The only surprise there was that it was actually able to verify that through its Internet c...

Time for troubleshooting: Open a terminal, enter "cd /dev" use "ls" to see whether the tap devices tap0 up to tap15 are present in the folder. If not, there is an issue with the installation of tuntaposx. I have no clear idea yet how to fix that. If they are there, continue. Many thanks for the det...

Best,
Cat_7

Yes, I did. Do the txt files require any particular permissions (such as belonging to root/wheel, et cetera? Should they have a "command" extension instead of "txt"?

This is what I get:

qemu-system-ppc-screamer: -netdev tap,id=network0,script=tap-up.txt,downscript=tap-down.txt: network script tap-up.txt failed with status 256

Wonderful. Thank you.

To get tap networking going I did this: -I created a network bridge called bridge0 in the network preferences with my default network connection as member. -I installed tuntaposx Forgive my ignorance. I've already installed tuntapox, but, how exactly do I create the network bridge called bridge0? D...

For Software update I get "your software doesn't need updating" That's what I get in Mac OS 9.0.4 on SheepShaver, but not on Mac OS 9.2.2 on Qemu for macOS. Odd. Edit: It is unclear for me how one goes about using "tap networking" for a Qemu client. Is it necessary to create some configuration/obje...

I am having an odd issue in OS 9.2.2 running on Qemu for macOS. Although I can use a web browser to navigate the Internet, other applications seem not to be able to access the Internet. For instance, when I want QuickTime 6 to access the Internet, I get an error identified as "-3162". The same thing...

Thanks, Cat_7.

Guides? Are there any up-to-date guides about ways to better integrate the Qemu macOS window with its host system? I wish I had better understanding of the following: Can the clipboard be shared between the guest and host operating systems? Can the guest operating system print to at least one print...

I'm sorry to report it DOES have the cursor issue in High Sierra.

One observation and one question about your build. The observation is that it runs in 64-bit mode, which is excellent news. The question is whether it supports JIT.

Many thanks. I've only tested it for five minutes. The early impressions are excellent.

Thank you very much, Cat_7.

In the first post of this thread several downloads of different builds of Qemu are available. I still get confused as to which download I should try. I've tried the first one only to discover that, as far as I can see, it lacks networking and sound (perhaps such things work, but require a reworked s...

Sorry if this is the wrong thread to post this question. Have there been any improvements in macOS Qemu for OS X guest 3D acceleration? In case there haven't, are there any plans to achieve said acceleration in the foreseeable future? If such acceleration were to be achieved, I wonder if Qemu would ...
