Re: Updater not working

Posted on: 7/9 23:59 #1

Not too shy to talk

My best guess is that you did not install some needed components for (aeon)updater.

It's good that you were carefull when installing the enhancer software as some of it should never be installed but you we're too restricted when doing so and missed some needed compoent.

There is some thread here where safe components is listed but you could also try to install this https://wiki.amiga.org/index.php/Enhancer_Software_Core

iirc it's safe components and will get updater running.

Re: X5000 maybe dying :(

55-56 degrees is what i'm usually at with my 020.
I have the old mcu firmware that made the fan go crazy already at low temperatures so i had to add extra hardware to slow the fans down.

This is how crappy the original cooler & thermal pad looks like.

The fan speed is programmed into the much and can not be changed.
The mcu will also make sure to shutdown the computer at a temp that has been programmed in.

However you can power the fan from another source to make it spin faster.

But the recommendation about replacing the thermal pad should be better.
I checked ny pad after 5 years and it was totalt worn out.

A fresh OS4.2 iso will solve all these problems :)

There is another scenario when updated kickstart modules and kicklayouts becomes problematic.

I don't always have my kickstart folder in sys:kickstart

But having an "novice" mode and advanced mode would be better for kickstart configurations where novice mode would be used most of the time with a standard kickstart-layout that just works.

Re: Amiga keyboard on AmigaOne XE

Posted on: 6/12 5:35 #7

Not too shy to talk

The amiga keyboard does not speak ps/2 keyboard protocol.
I don't know of any easy to find parts to convert the amiga keyboard into ps/2.
The only thing i know about is for A1200 keyboards.
The one for the infinitiv keyboards that connects directly to the keyboard membrane before any logic translates it into some serial protocol.
It might be tricky to attach it into the A2000 keyboard membrane even if the pinout probably is the same and they are probably rare.

However it's easy to convert an A2000 keyboard into usb with ready made solutions or just make one with arduino.

From there it should work with an ACTIVE usb ps/2 converter.
Most of the adaptors are passive and will not work.

If you know how to code arduino or similar it would probably be easy to extend some existing project into something that translates it directly to ps/2

@Tuvok

recommending sfs as the main filesystem on an X5000 is atm a little bit "dangerous" if the user does not have knowledge about how to prepare it's own bootmedia or has got access to a ready made bootmedia.

Thats because the enhancer package is required for the X5000 to get access to a working sfs filesystem.
When booting from the ordinary OS4.1 iso you will not be able to access SFS partitions.

Not a big problem for anyone who knows how the kickstart loading works etc but probably too much for the inexperienced user.

@SteffJay

You probably have some "fancy" keyboard that uboot does not like.

Exchange it with some cheap generic keyboard and you should be able to access uboot.

I don't have a list but about 10 years ago i tested alot of them and the one i wanted to work did not.
That was Ncomm.
I found surprisingly few alternatives that works that was not crap.

I settled with "term" in the end https://aminet.net/package/comm/term/Term

It was good but for unknown reasons for me the fonts supplied in that archive did not work with os4 and leads to a crash. (atleast 10 years ago)
Someone fixed the fonts with https://aminet.net/package/text/font/Typeface124 and gave a copy to me but it was also possible to run term if the fonts directory in the archive is renamed/deleted.(or possibly change used fonts in the prefs file)

The X5k uboot will use the serial port without doing anything unless it was changed in recent years
Set the communication to:

115200 Baud

If I can do this xrdp server with apt-get I may try it.

As I don't command-line much in Ubuntu, what would the exact Apt-Get be to do this from terminal.

Maybe I will give it a go.

TJ

It should not matter if you do it from command line or not :)
Anyway, with apt-get the command line is "sudo apt-get install xrdp" as xrdp is what the package is called in my repository with the description "xrdp - Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) server"

Re: Amiga OS 4.1 icon.library

You have the latest released icon library.
Is there anything you miss?

I just wish there was native support for png icons without using plugins even if i avoid using png icons some icons will still be in png format.

Have you used the latest Remote Desktop for Amiga? I just got it and love being able to use it with my X5000. I am able to use almost all programs on my WIndows 10 and 11 machines on my Amiga with audio!

If you haven't tried it, you should give it a shot.

Well not sure if there is a Mac or Linux solution. But it is a pretty cool way to use my Amiga for almost everything.

Rdesktop is my prefered way to control my raspberrypi running linux, it's ubuntu based so i just install the xrdp server with apt-get and then with zero configuration i can connect to it with rdesktop

Hi.
This must be a a job for the bootloader command, check out bootloader.doc (in the documentation directory) and adjust the bootloader command line in startup-sequence.

The beta driver is still available but the situation to test it has not changed. You could contact the developer and perhaps ask him to make it available for you.

Who is the person to contact?

Costel Mincea, also known as Cyborg is working on the driver.

OS4welt seems like a good forum btw with lots of good information even if i have to use google translate on the site so i tried to register, i hope i get approved.

@Sailor

The libstdc++.so you have in your A1222 os4.1 install cd is the one from the latest sdk in SDK:gcc/lib/gcc/ppc-amigaos/8.4.0/newlib/lib that was released years after any install cd's for any other systems.

So it's not a special build for the A1222, it's just sobjs-hell :)
