The models Planet Simulator, PUMA and the postprocessor Pumaburner
|
|
can be compiled and run with Windows if you have a FORTRAN-90
|
|
and a C++ compiler installed (e.g. GNU FORTRAN and GNU C++).
|
|
|
|
The GUI (Graphical User Interface) and MoSt (Model Starter)
|
|
are written using the Xlib (X11) library and cannot run
|
|
with native Windows.
|
|
|
|
There are following solutions:
|
|
|
|
1) Install a X11 emulator (e.g. the free Cygwin X11).
|
|
I've heard from users, that they got it to work with the models.
|
|
|
|
2) Install a Linux in a virtual machine like "Parallels" or "VMware".
|
|
Then use the virtual machine for running the models.
|
|
|
|
3) Install Linux (e.g. OpenSUSE 11.2) on your Windows-Computer.
|
|
It can coexist with Windows and installs a boot manager, that
|
|
enables switching between Linux and Windows at boot time.
|
|
|
|
Solution 3 is the cheapest (for free) and fastest solution.
|
|
|
|
Please don't ask Windows related questions via email,
|
|
we don't support Windows!

|
|
|
But you may open a thread on our forum
|
|
http://www.mi.uni-hamburg.de/Forum.5807.0.html
|
|
if you want to discuss with other Windows users.
|
|
|
|
If there is a skilled Windows-programmer, who successfully programs
|
|
a Windows-GUI for our models, I'll include that version in
|
|
fortcoming releases too.
