It's me again.. oh joy I know. I was wondering if anyone knew of an OS X emulator what would work on linux. I know about Basilisk II for Gentoo, but I couldn't get it to work on my SuSE 10.1. Anyone know of another solution? I went to Novell's website as well as the OpenSuSE website, but I didn't find anything.

Also, what can I use to get the little Dawin (I think that's the name of the OS X GUI) toolbar at the bottom of my screen like they do on OS X?

All replies are much appreciated!

If you want full-up OSX emulation, I can attest to the fact that VMWare Server, while it doesn't officially support it, will run OSX images. This breaks the Apple EULA so I can't go into too much detail,but guides are out there and rather easy to find.

If you simply wish to add a Dock-like bar, there are some projects that are out there, depending on what WM/DE you use. Again, some quick searching will find multiple projects. for example, if you use gnome or XFCE4, you might want to look into gnome-dock

Hmm... true, that EULA is a bit of a problem. I'm not looking for full emulation, maybe just a couple programs but that's it.

Ok, I'll see what else I can find. If it helps any, I'm using KDE.
