S p e c i f i c a t i o n s

• x86 CPU, 3.2Ghz
• 512MB RAM
• DVD Drive (System must be set to boot from DVD)
• Minimum 40GB hard drive Linux Native Partition with EXT3 file system
• PCI Express ATI Radeon X800 with SVGA and S-Video out
• AC'97 compatible audio chipset
• Conexant Prism GT 802.11g wireless chipset
• 8-Way, 6-button USB Gamepad
• Minimum 4 USB 2.0 ports

Hardware must meet all of the above specifications for Gamix 2006.

Additional USB peripherals may be supported by individual Gamix
applications, but must always be able to run with the core
specifications.

Seltsam, dass man nicht auf Nvidia setzt...

Gamix is simply the hardware specifications. Software can be developed under any environment that will run on the specified hardware.

It begins with a bootable DVD. Using the El Torito Bootable CD-ROM Format Specification http://www.phoenix.com/NR/rdonlyres/98D3219C-9CC9-4DF5-B496-A286D893E36A/0/specscdrom.pdf any software can be launched on a Gamix machine. It could be FreeDOS, DR DOS, or any version of Linux. It could even be a Windows runtime if you are willing to negotiate a license with Microsoft. The point is that the world is your oyster. Develop software at as high or low a level as you want. As long your software boots from a DVD and can run on the Gamix specified hardware.

Gamix does slightly favor Linux for space-intensive games by guaranteeing the availability of a Linux Native Partition with EXT3 file system. But by no means is this meant to limit development to Linux.

1. zu spät: http://www.forum-3dcenter.de/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=253751

2. falsche Forum weil das System zwar mit Linux laufen kann aber auch mit jedem anderen OS.

OK.

Es wird aber Linux favorisiert (siehe Text und Filesystem).



Dann kann hier dicht gemacht werden!

Klingt wie nen würdiger Ersatz der XBox mit Modchip + Linux. Aber zum spielen wahrscheinlich weniger interessant.
