If you can compile it on Linux, you can probably compile it on FreeBSD. Sorting out the rest is not OS specific, it's a completely different beast.

- cmrx64 11y agoYou don't use OpenGL etc, you use their proprietary graphics API.
- iamcreasy 11y agoLooks like Sony is far far away from developing something like XBox dev mode.
- feld 11y agoYou're pushing raw data to the GPU which is directly executed. I've heard there's a ~15% performance increase doing it this way, but you could never do this with a general purpose OS due to the huge security problems it creates.
