Display of the Japanese NetBSD User Group booth
at the "Open Source Matsuri '99"
with a number of machines and architectures represented, starting
from left: NetBSD/sun3, NetBSD/i386, NetBSD/mac68k, NetBSD/pmax,
NetBSD/macppc, NetBSD/sparc, and
NetBSD/macppc on both a MacPowerbook G3 and an iMac (with some games on it
:-).

Still not slick enough? How about running the
windowmaker window manager with the FreeBSD Theme and
a transparent wterm? Other applications shown here are
xchat and the WindowMaker config utility.

The machine running this
XFCE desktop
has three video cards (Nvidia GeForce FX 5600 SE AGP,
Matrox MGA G400 PCI and a 3Dfx Interactive Banshee PCI) each running
at 1600x1200@75Hz with 24bit on one CRT.
The cards are automatically detected and configured by xf86cfg,
they are combined into one single 4800x1200 virtual desktop with
option "xinerama" in /etc/X11/XF86Config.
Besides many applications, a listing of the machine's PCI cards showing the three graphics cards and the configuration relevant for Xinerama from /etc/X11/XF86Config can be seen on the right side of the desktop, Images contributed by Stefan Schumacher <stefan at net-tex dot de> |

Got a laptop or notebook machine? NetBSD supports it, no matter if
it's Intel,
Sparc or a Mac! This KDE panel
shows (from left to right) klavg displaying the
machine's load average, kapm showing the machine's
battery state (queried via APM), and the
modem activity indicator that kppp (part of the kdenetwork3
package) brought to the panel to remain connected
while still being mobile. And a clock. :)

This screenshot shows some production-grade office applications
running under NetBSD. The desktop environment is GNOME
along with the windowmaker window manager. In the top
left section of the screen you can see the GIMP image
manipulation program. The displayed picture has been scanned using
the XSane scanner front end displayed below. In the
top right section of the screen lies tgif, a
technical drawing program. Below that, there is the desktop window of
the StarOffice office suite, and on the bottom left section you can
find the gnumeric spread sheet displaying a table and a
print preview.

These three screenshots are of fxtv (TV program based on the

This screenshot shows WordPerfect 8 for Linux running under the NetBSD Linux
emulation. WordPerfect 8 is still freely available, have a look at
this

NetBSD is an excellent environment for running productivity applications. For
example, this screenshot shows
MoneyDance,
a personal finance manager written in Java, running on NetBSD. It works with
little effort using the included Linux Java runtime environment. The
sun-jre14 package contains a short note with
prerequisites
that also apply to this runtime environment.

The latest Java Runtime Environment 1.5 is available for NetBSD-current
through binary emulation. This example shows the XML Editor
XMLmind SE 2.8 (XXE2) running
on NetBSD/i386 2.99.10 with the JRE 1.5
provided by the package
lang/sun-jre15.
XMLmind is a validating XML editor featuring a word processor-like view.
On the screenshot you can see a completely localized environment for XML
DocBook documentation processing. The same document is opened in the vi
editor and in XXE2.
The Mozilla browser displays the generated HTML document, containing draft
guidelines for the translation of NetBSD documentation to the Russian
language. The source document uses KOI8-R encoding and the HTML page uses
UTF-8.

Thanks to Todd Vierling, NetBSD can now run CrossOver Office as well! This is
a screenshot of a rather plain KDE3 desktop with
OfficeSetup, Windows Media Player (idle), IE (viewing Windows Update, of
all things 8-), and ClrMamePro (a retrocomputing file manager).

Using CrossOver Office on NetBSD it
is also possible to run Microsoft applications, like Microsoft Word.

WaveLAN Image Sniffing is possible with NetBSD and
driftnet.
This image shows a notebook running NetBSD 1.6.2 with a Lucent WLAN card
running driftnet to capture wireless traffic, analyze it and display any
graphical content, from HTTP and other protocols. In addition, driftnet
can also find mp3 audio streams and play them if wanted. General WaveLAN
traffic statistics are displayed in the white-on-black window on the right
side of the screen using
slurm.

Some of the most popular Windows games run flawlessly
on NetBSD. Here is one such game, Baldurs Gate, running
under the wine emulator. The amazing thing
about it is that the game runs more smoothly and faster
than under Windows itself!

In today's business world, applications from
multiple environments need to coexist. Using NetBSD's wealth of
networking facilities and advanced remote access
capabilities, this works fine, as these images show.
The first one shows graphs from CA/Platinum DBVision running on the DEC UNIX machine with output displayed locally on a NetBSD/i386 machine. Below that to the left is an SAP R/3 GUI running on a different DEC box showing a database analysis screen, to the right of that is a vnc session running on NetBSD controlling a NT workstation. The second screenshot adds a CA/Platinum ServerVision realtime load average of another UNIX machine. Images contributed by James Spath <James.Spath@bdk.com>

Digital cameras get increasing popular, and there are several
applications available in the NetBSD Packages Collection that
can be used to transfer the images from the camera to the
computer, and post-process them. Like here with an Epson PC650
digi-cam with gphoto used to access the images
stored on the camera.

Sometimes you may have to run an application for a certain OS from Redmond.
Fortunately, you can do that without shutting down NetBSD by running
VMware

Did you ever wonder how many network ports a notebook can have? This one
has four: one onboard, one CardBus card and two USB 2.0 network adapters.
It is running NetBSD-i386
3.0_BETA and serves as an experimental
VPN gateway.

This is "blue.geo.Uni-Koeln.DE", a Dell Inspiron 3800 laptop, running
NetBSD-1.4.2. It runs KDE as desktop environment. xosview
monitors the system activity and xworld shows me where the sun
currently shines (modulo clouds). Development work on arla
is going on in the two kvt windows.
The image was taken with a Kodak DC215 Zoom, and gphoto was used to download the image to blue. Image contributed by Lex Wennmacher <wennmach@NetBSD.org>

NetBSD does QuakeWorld! You can now enjoy late night fragfests on your
NetBSD/i386
machine with GLX based hardware acceleration (MGA or TNT) and sound!
This game binary was compiled on
NetBSD
by porting the recently released
Quake1 source code.
You can also see a native QuakeWorld Server running in the bottom right xterm.

Alpha Multia,
2*HP425t,
2*Power Bar,
Sun 3/80,

Need to do fancy presentations? A Laptop with NetBSD/i386, or a DNARD running

Using magicpoint will allow for colored or animated

This screenshot of a Sparc IPX running
NetBSD/sparc with fvwm95 for a window manager shows
ongoing work on a web page. XSane is being used as a

Netscape communicator is running via NetBSD's SunOS binary
compatibility, the page is being served by the same machine
running the apache web server.

One of the vital components in operating systems today
is proper driver support, derived from vendor-provided device
documentation and brought into shape for the system's driver framework.
As an example this screenshot shows Adobe Acrobat Reader (available in
the acroread package, running
in Linux emulation) displaying the DECchip 21143 programmer's manual,
some xterms and a vi in which the `tlp' driver is being worked on.
The machine this is on is a Dell Inspiron 3500 laptop running
NetBSD/i386.
