Re: Trying to decide between buying an X5000 and an A1222+
|
|
Not too shy to talk

@mdcatdad I have both and I use both daily. If you can afford it the X5000 is the better choice in terms of performance, but the downside is the size. My X5000 almost never moves off of my desk, but the A1222 travels with me quite nicely. For most things the A1222 is perfectly sufficient, but I'm not a "gamer" and don't tend to play 3D games often, which is really where the A1222 has a noticeable weakness. But for video playback, audio streaming, email, spreadsheet work, use of Digital Universe, and the other tasks I do mostly, the A1222 works well for me. Where I prefer the X5000 is for games and web browsing, but in truth, as time goes on and our web browsers continue to stagnate, the latter gets less useful over time. And it doesn't have the issues with FPU emulation, so I don't have to consult lists of what works well and what doesn't ( http://eliyahu.org/tabor/). The A1222 is a fine choice, as is a SAM460, and if you want something small, go for it. The X5000 is no doubt a better system; it comes down to cost vs benefit for you personally. -- eliyahu

@Maijestro Quote: Ok, that will have been the problem. If you continue to have various crashes, please try using only the front USB ports.
I also had problems with the right rear USB port that the TCP/IP stack/etnernet driver and other things crashed often. I have never seen anything like this with my system. I wonder if there's an actual issue introduced with the production board. Has anyone with the original Tabor beta boards experienced this? -- eliyahu

@Boabster There are compatible PCI and PCI-e wireless cards for the AmigaOne series -- I even wrote about this topic a decade or so ago -- but the A1222 only has one expansion slot. There are also devices you can use with the included usbadm8511.device driver. Check out this older thread: https://www.amigans.net/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=108181However I'd skip all the bother and just get an Ethernet-to-WiFi bridge. There are tons of them available, they're cheap, and they're easy to set up if you have a PC or Mac around. I use them for my A1222 setup at home, for example. I'm using it to browse this thread, in fact.  As for a ticking sound that doesn't bode well. I'd contact AAA Technology and inquire. I've never had that issue with mine. -- eliyahu

@jPV Quote: Nice test, thanks. I wonder if it's the FPU emulation that makes some players to make that much CPU load... It is. It's also why any format that stores data in floats will have the same issue. Quote: - "So, which player is best on the A12222 Plus?" there's too many 2:s In my experience RNOTunes is the best overall player, but if you need streaming support, then it's TuneNet. ktadd may have different views. -- eliyahu

Actually I'm not authorized to distribute any firmware from A-EON, so I need to just remove the link.

Nope, that isn't the latest firmware. I should really update that!
I don't understand what on Earth is going on with your system. The only things I've seen that causes that level of instability is either having diskcache.library.kmod enabled or a flaky memory SO-DIMM.

@Detordiggei Quote: Thanks for your answer,
I’ve used the file system suggested on the manual, NGF/01, which I never used before, and then I performed the recovery from the shell script. I even tried a different installation from the provided ISO of OS4.1, same result.
I tried the same softwares that I’m usually running on the Sam460: Lightwave, Blender, Wipeout, and as previously mentioned also DVPlayer doesn’t start. Even the smallest 3d demo such Gears crashes on start, it is clear that 3D and hardware acceleration in general are not working. OK. Lightwave doesn't work on the A1222, and for WipeOut you'll need the new version from Huno that he's working on. However 3D in general should work fine with a support graphics card. It sounds like you might not have had the chance to read through my QuickStart Guide which touches on most of these questions. Take a few minutes and read through it on http://eliyahu.org/tabor -- there is a ton of useful material in there. -- eliyahu

@Detordiggei
Hmmm. That's rather odd. Can you list some of the programs you've tried that result in crashes or freezes?
By any chance are you using SFS partitions on your A1222 or did you get everything pre-made from AAA Technology?

@Maijestro
My results on my A1222 with an RX550 video card, running full screen in a 1980x1080@32 screenmode resulted in 373.36 FPS.
What is interesting is that on my X5000 I have a much older RadeonHD 7750. There with the same screenmode I only get 271.02 FPS, so the video card definitely makes a difference here considering the A1222 is quite a bit faster than the X5000 in this one test due to the GPU differences.

@mcleppa
Is there an option to add a device to either AirPrint or AirScan by specifying an IP address rather than using the search feature? For example my printer is perfectly accessible from my Amiga but on a different subnet, so the search function doesn't 'see' it when doing the search for a device add.

@dfstudios Quote: Thanks for that. Copying the ahi.prefs file from the USB recovery stick got the audio working properly again. Yay! Glad it's working again. Quote: I notice that you seem to be using the original AHI prefs program and not the A-EON version. The A-EON prefs program seems to be buggy on my system. Even copying the version from the USB recovery stick didn't make any difference as if I try to change anything the program seems to want to make its own decision as to the what the values should be. Looks like you found the culprit. This is why my Enhancer Software philosophy has always been to add to the OS, but never replace any components. The A-EON replacements almost never bring any actual benefit, but they do bring bugs. That said the good part is that when you report bugs to the Enhancer team, they actually get fixed without having to wait for years. So there's good and bad.  -- eliyahu

@dfstudios That's a new one for me. Not seen that before. We might need @LyleHaze to help here. You can always just replace the prefs file with a default one from the install USB drive. Maybe it became corrupted somehow? This is how my settings look:  -- eliyahu

@Maijestro As mentioned in the 'general notes' of the tools/games compatibility lists in my QuickStart Guide, yes, ReWarp does now work with the A1222. You'll need to pick up build #80 or newer. That said I haven't actually run any WarpOS software with it successfully since the few games or tools I have requiring WOS don't work for other reasons. Your experience may be different. You can check out the lists here, if you haven't already: http://eliyahu.org/tabor/-- eliyahu

@dfstudios I had similar issues when the first SATA driver builds were being tested. Steven had indicated at the time removable media wasn't yet supported, and I've not had occasion to test since. I noted that in the disk section of my guide: http://eliyahu.org/tabor/disk.htmlLooks like issues remain. That's a shame. The good news is that it seems to work with external drives connected via USB, but that's not really the same thing since, ideally, we want to use the DVD drives we might have in our cases. -- eliyahu

@samo79 That may not even be needed. Amiga Documents has just translated a hit piece on Trevor -- which is way over the top IMO -- but did contain an interesting tidbit. He may already have joint ownership of AOS4. https://sites.google.com/site/amigadoc ... ainment-rtd-gray-eminenceI really hate articles like this trying to insinuate Trevor is part of some evil conspiracy with Ben, etc. If he does have joint ownership -- or will if Hyperion goes bankrupt -- I can hardly think of better hands. -- eliyahu

@Kamelito
Any of the RadeonRX cards will do nicely. Unfortunately I don't have more than one to test, but perhaps Trevor or others can contribute information. We could compare FPS numbers with some games.
