I've used a 5250 emulator on my Mac but it was kind of strange with the F-key business, and the way (at least in my emulator) the Mac controlled the functions for a cople of them.
That's gotta be easier in RDi, though, and it would be worth getting used to!

My apologies Jim - you were correct. I had not noticed that they had added Ubuntu and missed it in Eric's note.

But frankly that just makes me even more annoyed that there is no Mac support!

OK, I accept that (never tried it) I was going off of Eric's note below.

Enterprise editions seem to be a bit of overkill for a portable device
now does it not?

Doesn't run on Ubuntu Jim - only Red Hat and SUSE and the enterprise
editions at that.

Ubuntu is the closest version to the MAC in terms of OS, but that
would still require a second OS running on the MAC.

Weird - thanks Eric for clarifying.

Not that I have any intention of ever using these versions but .

RDi support SUSE, RedHat, and Ubuntu for the client in addition to
various Windows versions.

If you click on the system requirements tab from
http://www-03.ibm.com/software/products/en/dev-ibm-i and select
Client it will list the operating systems (including various Linux).
I'm not sure why it is not showing Linux on the initial tab. I will
look into
that.

Thanks,

Yes they can - but Red Hat and SUSE enterprise editions only.

However I?m not sure the current release does run on Linux - the
only version that this IBM web page
http://www-03.ibm.com/software/products/en/dev-ibm-i shows for Linux
is version 8.5. The indication appears to be that 9.0 and 9.1 only
run on windows.

Maybe one of the IBMers on this list could comment on that.

Can they already use Linux? Just curious as I almost exclusively
use Linux (Debian Jessie/Xfce) at home and run a couple of KVM/QEMU
virtual PC's to run programs that have no Linux alternative, or do
but not with the specific capabilities I require.


Hopefully that policy will apply in Canada too and perhaps
increase the
chances that we will finally get a native Mac implementation of RDi.
