Differences between revisions 1 and 19 (spanning 18 versions)

Sage is fully supported on the following platforms:

Linux on x86
Linux on x86-64, i.e. AMD's Athlon 64 & Opteron CPUs and Intel's CPUs with EMT64 extension
Linux on IA64
Linux on PPC (32 bit only)
MacOSX 10.4 and 10.5 on PPC (32 bit only)
MacOSX 10.4 and 10.5 on Intel (32 bit only)
Solaris 10 on Sparc 32 bit.
VMWare via a 32 bit Linux image (we support a specific preconfigured image meant for use in Windows).

"Supported" means all doctests pass. If not, please report the problem to the Google group sage-devel or sage-support. You can also report problems in the IRC channel #sage-devel on freenode.

The following platforms are feasible in the short term and depend mostly on somebody who is willing to do the job. If you intend to work on a specific port, please let the Sage people know. ard)

Solaris 10 on x86 32 bit. (Works 100%, and should be upgraded to fully supported soon).
Solaris 10 on SPARC 64 bit.
OpenSolaris on x86 32 bit. (Works 100%, and should be upgraded to fully supported soon).
OpenSolaris on x86 64-bit
BSD support on x86, x86-64: most likely FreeBSD
Windows/Cygwin: this port is very active.
