Re: Battle For Wesnoth OS4 and resolution
Just popping in
Just popping in


@cHaOs667

I made a shell script that sets the stack and starts wesnoth instead of using the default icon.

That removed the problem for me (i think, haven't played it that much and it was a while ago I was trying to get it to work).

At least i discovered that it wasn't a problem of font, but it was a backdrop image set in the gui setting..

It was too big and gave me this kind of problem.. it also gave me problem with DVPlayer while watching a dvx...

Now it's ok

did you try usbctrl restart ?

For my USB stick this is the opposite : I have no choice to leave it at boot time (cold or warn) else it is not recognized or I have to restart the USB stack.

A dollop of good sense is worth a mountain of speculation.

What is, I have little doubt, a renegotiation of contractual obligations (ably, and usually, handled by lawyers), has been turned into an imaginative battle royale for the ownership of AOS4 (on what legal grounds is never mentioned).

It could be worse, but a balance of probability very much places this as a storm in a teacup and a fairly normal development in business relations. It thus may be more, but probably is not.

Acube looks lined-up for a license, and now the ACK announcement. And some have speculated on OS5, which remains a possibility, though I would not even guess on likelihood.

Now would Hyperion take on the expense for a boxed OS4 that leaves out its recent partnership with Acube who is destined to be its world-wide distributor when it is clear that their main HW product is intended to run OS4?

That does not make sense to me. It seems much more likely that the Boxed edition is intended for SAM at least.

What of the ACK board, which also seems destined for AOS4, or maybe, as some have speculated, for OS5.

ACK may be more advanced than we might suspect and the current boxed OS4 edition might be also for it. A good thing for choice, and as I keep saying the present community market is too small for even one board, it makes very little difference if there is another, or even a third - even a PS3 port hardly matters in this.

The community is just too small to justify any of these developments singularly, multiplicity hardly effects anything much at all. Either the boards have other markets, or they fail. It is that simple (the relatively high price is first run price for the Amiga community, but also a stock for industry assessments and demonstrations).

Now one last thing. OS5.

OS5 will not be based on Tao, this has been stated categorically. But this is not to say that Tao VP code will not be involved (I dearly hope so for a variety of reasons).

Amiga Inc has also said that AmigaAnywhere will be ported to OS4. Others have said they are not interested in AA on Linux (and I concur - Linux would make me very unhappy).

On the other hand, OS5, running as an stripped down OS4 port to a specific piece of HW, hosting the AA environment, supplies a simple way of porting AA to OS4 proper (SAM model perhaps) - in fact no porting would be involved.

ACK running perhaps a cut down slimed OS4 in combination with AA and called OS5, that would to my mind all sensible sit together. It gives OS5 development room as a useful OS (when apps are developed), as a development machine for portable VP apps etc.,.

This would also fit into AI's long term plans.

While OS4 would stay PPC based (which makes sense especially with the PS3 market). OS5 need not be so confined, it could be (it is small enough) be ported to small devices as a foundation layer for the VP applications.

That would make a lot of sense. The interface between the VP compiled code and the HW specific drivers (the Indian specialty). Opens things up for AI as well as Tao, and Hyperion, ACK and SAM.

It would because of this be OS5 the OS4 component, once cut down, adapted to specific HW and ported to different CPU families would no longer be OS4 in any meaningful sense, and it would not be Linux overkill either.

If the above makes sense, we are certainly in for an interesting time.

Well, so many of the trolls out there on various sites always seem to say, the Amiga is Dead, ad nuseum, etc.

Well, if that's the case, how come there is still mention of the latest hardware news on various general computing sites?

For example...

@rwo

I would like the usual, of course, but particularly:
HP1360D printer,
PalmOS devices (Palm IIIc and Clie SJ30 f'r'instance),
Kodak DC3400 digital camera.

but most of all, I'd like the USB stack to recognise my USB Hub upon boot of OS4, cos I have to leave it unplugged, boot, then wait a few seconds and plug it in, hoping it will be recognised.
most times I have to go into the shell and type
usbctrl stop
turn off the hub, enter
usbctrl start
and then power up the hub once more.
its a workaround, but its a PITA !
this needs to be done everytime do Ctrl-A-A too.

@spotUP

I have taken a small break from my current project.

And have looked at Allegro for some hours today and yesterday, and rigth now I have made my first compile of every thing.

here is the proof. http://www.rwo.dk/allegro.jpg

What is needed now is all the diffrent drivers for mouse/keyboard/graphics/music and so on.

My guesss is that I'm 1/3 of the way now.

As this is a side project I cant give any deadline.

Just wanted to inform you.

..oops...yes...I didn't notice until after I posted this that Akiko is specifically for Windows, whereas the CD-32 emulator is for Amiga.
E-UAE is a good alternative, no doubt about it....and I have gotten a few CDTV games working...but CD32 stuf hasn't worked for me so far...at least anything like Psygnosis Microcosm...

Anyone know how to get that working with E-UEA?

Slightly off topic:

The only USB devices I have are a thumb drive and a joystick adapter. They both work fine.

The only problem I have with USB is it doesn't work after a warm/soft reset (logo logo Ctrl).
