Er, yes that's a good point. I see now -- it's about architecture not OS. :-P My bad.
I'm pretty sure that HL is compiled for x86 only. Sorry about that. On a side note, I don't believe that full source code is available (for obvious proprietary reasons), but the SDK is the code that VALVe released to allow other parties to develop other games/mods, etc. based on the HL engine.

Do they actually give out the source for the HL server? From a quick google it looks like they provide binaries only and most likely these are for i386. If they only provide binaries for i386 that isn't going to work on a Mac. Linux binaries will only work for the architecture they were compiled for. This is assuming that the binary packages are not java code or something like that. Jeff
