    It depends. Some NodeBox 1 libraries require features that are only available on Mac OS X, and so are not available in NodeBox for OpenGL (which is cross-platform). A lot of these libraries haven't been updated in a long time and might require some careful prodding to make them work on newer versions of Python and NodeBox.

    Here is an overview of all libraries available on http://nodebox.net/code/index.php/Library and which ones should be compatible:

    Knowledge

    (Note that a lot of the functionality of these is now covered by Tom's excellent Pattern library: http://www.clips.ua.ac.be/pages/pattern)

    Database: OK
    Graph: Some parts – the drawing part might not work

    iSight: specific to OS X
    Quicktime: specific to OS X

    Paths

    Bezier: obsolete – features are built in to NodeBox / NodeBox OpenGL
    Cornu: should work

    Supershape: should work

    Systems

    Boids: OK
    Ants: OK
    L-system: OK
    Noise: OK

    Design

    Colors: OK, except for some parts that rely on Core Image
