Delicious Agony, it's progressive rock. Use the mp3 streams on AOS. Works with StreamMP3 from aminet, tunenet and mplayer (d/l the pls files) Enjoy, Jack

Hijacking the answer: The problem is with inability to read NTFS, so FaT->NTFS not good here. NTFS is availbale in WIN2k+WINXP. AFAIR, WINXP-sp2 offers it to be a default... So far the only option according to the status of AOS-related ntfs support support (besides using a PC running Winblows NT/2K/XP) on A1 is to compile NTFS kernel module and try it. It works on x86 linux, didn't try it on PPC linux. Jack

@abalaban
There is a nice pice of h/w trhat might be handy in this case:
ide to usb adapter. You should find the one that supports usb1.1 (the only one I've seen is 2.0 only, won't work with an internal usb of A1 afaiu). An option that's worth checking. It has an ide connectors (44+40 pin) on one side and usb plug on the other side. And adaptor for HD power (3.5' drive). They should be dirt cheap.
Linux as it, you mentioned, has HTFS support, the kernel should be appropriately set up and compiled. Write capability is limited though.

@TMTisFree Quote: Hi,
You can add me on your list. After 5 monthes in a box (I moved home), switching on the A1 gives a black screen: no serial output, battery is good, dust cleaned, etc. Nothing.
I'm not sure what to do now.
Are you from Denill's thread on AW.net? First get the A1+ram to AmigaCenter/France (you are luckily close ) so Jean Jacquescould diagnoze it 1-st... Don't rush to join the club. And you'll know for certain if the mobo itself is ok. Good luck... Jack

Power-user elitist!
Actually, pdfs are viewable using gs (from geekgadget). Apdf requires CPU>=68020 and if you have one it's better than gs (which is probably a pain in the behind when viewing pdfs with 68000). Good luck, Jack

Afaik, it's the same module as XE, isn't it?
If so, the best chance is to find something that can use the 2 holes that already exist in the module. Extra thought on the solution that won't fall down is crucial. The link that appeared couple of posts ago looks like a good solution.
edit: meanwhile you can use a standard room fan blowing air on the cpu area to increase the circulation and test the DVD playback...

Two colums: A1200 and A1G4 (currently dead, but that' correct info for the day it died, hopefully it'll be ressurected soon) H/W: A1200+68060+64FastRAM+3com pcmcia net. card+80Gb HD/ A1G4XE 7451+0.5GbRAM+80Gb HD+onboard 3com net. card OS: 3.9/4.0p3 Filesystem:pfs3/ffs2 Except the one glich with pfs (ver. 2 then, formating of certain partition resuted in empty space instead of 2 from first 3). Luckily I had backups of everything crucial) TCP/IP stack: Netconnect3(Genesis, amitcp inside)/Roadshow Both work great except the stange bug with DHCP in roadshow in pre3 (Hyperion got the report, probably fixed in pre4) Browsers: Aweb 3.5.08( with latest amissl, frequently)+latest Voyager(seldom) on both Both have limitations, I like the look and feel of Voyager, Aweb is much more stable. Email s/w: none (using pine remotely on X11, IMap support isn't good enough in SimpleMail ) Chat s/w: none (Gaim on linux) Virus s/w: VirusChecker+Virusz (acrually didn't use it seriosly for a long time, I launch them ocassionally for general amusement)/None Do you use PGP with your emails: seldom, not on amiga side anyway. I do encrypt critical data such as exams (not amiga side too). Extra info/other software used online: A1200: AmiWinDemo(seldom)+GeekGadgets X (not recently)+ssh (GG) Both:XAmi4.3(frequently, not sure about the number of the version), vva, nfs client from Genesis ssh is ok, not the recent though, XAmi works ok, didn't have a chance to use X11 for OS4, nfs was sloow on A1.

Just cut the tube that holds them folded if you have the non-flat ones. Jack

Is it usb-fixed A1? If not you're probably using a usb hub tio allow re-plugging devices.
[edit]: as poweramiga already noted above (was editing it too log due to distraction) If so try it (hub) on the PC.

Just "compiling" for some platform is meaningless without proper testing. How you test on your target platforms is entirely up to you but please at least have it tested.
It doesn't have to be "compiling". Thingies like rexx can be combined with mui and use comman-line stuff for performing various tasks. And it is "portable". You can even write things like streaming radio player in rexx (using rxsocket.library). I wouldn't believe it untill I found it on Aminet. Adding a gui to it was the most obvious thing to do. No compiling there. It uses mpega to play the stream. When I get my A1 back from the oblivion I'll combine it with mplayer and here you have a radio player that can play everything. Without compiling. Didn't I said that already? The point is dont' start things from scratch if there're ready pieces of software lying around and waiting to be combined. Big stuff such as office suite/web browser/etc won't go that way. Jack Edit::typos

@Skov Any additional info? I suppose the message is on the PC side (Windows)?
How frequently did you use it? These things don't have an infiinite number of accesses.
If there's nothing crucial and it is recognized on either side, Amiga or the other, and the manual says how to format it and restore its software I would format it and see if it is ok. Usually it is yes/no situation (ability to format). If no --- get another one, they're cheap these days.
I hope it helps, Jack
