Hi Alex and Henrik,
Would the Linux system or my Mac, or both, have to be in 64-bit mode
for the 64-bit PicoLisp to work?
I would say: yes. Because a 32-bit Linux cannot execute 64-bit binaries
(the other way round works, though)
Why do you need a ready-made Linux image? Isn't there a
Hi Jon,
- Is it possible to run OpenGL stuff with 64-bit PicoLisp on Ubuntu?
Yeah, this is one of the major open issues on 64-bits.
Unfortunately, the 32-bit OpenGL library doesn't work on 64-bits, we
have to rewrite it using 'native' calls. I couldn't do it until now, as
I have no local
Hi Alex,
I have some time available today and tomorrow. At least we could get
started on the 64-bit OpenGL library.
Re. VirtualBox: It's also available (for free) for Linux hosts, here:

If you're interested, you might be able to run 64-bit Ubuntu
Hi Jon,

Great! Let me check the 32-bit version and write some fragments.
If you're interested, you might be able to run 64-bit Ubuntu on your
32-bit Linux machine. Or am I wrong? At
If you do it the way I did you will sooner or later end up with a list
of operating systems that are supported, if you find 64bit Ubuntu or
Debian there you are set and I have a vague recollection of it being
there but I'm far from sure.

Hi,
I would like to try the 64-bit PicoLisp on my Intel Mac, and I guess
using the (now Oracle) VirtualBox should be one possible way to go.
I could maybe start off using one of the GNU/Linux images available
here: http://virtualboxes.org/images/
However, to get the 64-bit PicoLisp up and
Here is how I did Windows in Linux:

Just download a Ubuntu 64 bit ISO and boot the virtual machine with it.

I don't know anything about VirtualBox, but I doesn't sound impossible.
The cleanest way, however, would be if we at last succeeded to get
