Hello,
I just tested some structural biology programs on my MacMini with M1 chip (base
model, MacOS 11.0.1). After installing Xcode command line tools 12.2 and
Xquartz 2.7.11, open source pymol 2.4.0 (via homebrew), coot 0.8.9.3 (W.
Scott's binary) and UCSF chimeraX 1.1 (official dmg) are all

Indeed, big concern.
Probably no other choice than switching to MetalGL :

A greater concern may be lack of support for

To be fair to Apple, the original Rosetta that allowed Power PC executables to
run on their Intel chipped computers worked really well. I still have a machine
that can run Snow Leopard (OSX 10.6.8), which uses Rosetta to run a very old
version of PPC MS Word. The main issue appears to be
Hi Antony
In theory (TM) things should just work with Rosetta 2 - how well they work is a
matter for some debate and I think there will be a lot of eyes on non-Apple
benchmarks of this system.
I would guess though that it will be inevitable that we (DIALS, CCP4, the
community, …) need to
Perhaps this is a little too soon, but does anyone know if the new M1
system-on-a-chip will continue to run XQuartz/X11 + the CCP4 program suite +
other crystallography / EM software? Will CCP4 continue to support the platform?
