Porting question
Posted: Thu Apr 15, 2004 9:09 am
My dad gave me his old Macintosh Powerbook G3 (Lombard) and without any knowledge of MacOS, I installed YellowDog Linux on it 
I have played Exult / U7 using my now rare Complete Ultima 7 CD although I do still own the Serpent Isle box and original floppies (with very drawn on cloth map)
My quesiton is somewhat simple, in an effort to port exult to PPC linux, what obstacles might I encounter other than my SDL not being 100% compatible and the lack of MIDI? Or am I wanting to do something I shouldn't?
