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)
- 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 9 on Sparc 32 bit (ongoing, getting close, mabshoff is working on this)
- Solaris 9 on Sparc 64 bit (work will start on this once the 32 bit port works)
- Solaris 10 on Sparc 32 bit (ongoing, getting close, mabshoff is working on this)
- Solaris 10 on Sparc 64 bit (work will start on this once the 32 bit port works)
- Solaris 10 on x86 32 bit, Opteron/EMT64 32 bit (ongoing, getting close, mabshoff is working on this)
- Solaris 10 on Opteron/EMT64 64 bit (work will start on this once the 32 bit port works)
- BSD support on x86, x86-64: most likely FreeBSD
Windows/MSVC 32 & 64 bit: monumental undertaking, estimate: 1-2 man years, but we are receiving funding to do the port
- Windows/Cygwin: this port was dropped due to numerous problems after the 2.5.0 release, but will be resurrected as a stepping stone in the MSVC port
The status of various ports can be followed in the following places:
the Solaris port can be followed at The Solaris port page.
the Windows ports can be followed at The Windows port page.
the FreeBSD port can be followed at The FreeBSD port page.
the AIX 64 bit port is in the early stages - it can be followed at The AIX 64 bit port page
the Linux ppc64 port can be followed at The Linux PPC64 port page
the Linux Mips64 port can be followed at The SiCortex port page.
the 64 bit MacIntel port is ongoing, but needs some more work
