Old? I still remember going to Alan Redhouse's home to see that new computer. When was it? 25 years ago?
Nice to see it's still running more or less.

@derfs

Thanks for you work. I wish I didn't break my OS4 installation to test it.

Is this a bug of OS4?
If yes, a developer/betatester can report it to Hyperion.

Not related to Dosbox, but you might know that Haiku almost boots into Bochs OS4. At this point, Bochs crashs.

I wish we could boot from an ISO but the emulator needs to support El Torito format if I understand correctly.
Maybe a new task for wonderful Huno

Re: Minor feature suggestions for OS 4.2

@tao

I'm happy to see I suggested this new thread
You are right, at some point people have to think what they want about OS4.x and organize a way to make this happen (crowdfunding?).

Never think it's not possible.

Even finding a solution about UDF support is possible.
I see 2 alternatives:
- pay Jorg (depending on how much he wants)
- recreate a new CD Filesystem

@3VILC

Hi, and welcome in OS4 land

If you install a RX card, you need at least Uboot version 2015.c but note that the last version is 2015.d. You can check which version you have like this:
- when Uboot starts, press the ESC key
- type at the Uboot prompt:
ver

If I could issue "version" on the exe, that would help a lot! Oh well.

I checked. When I said 0.8.29 it is AmigGFX version that comes with OS4-FE.
Your version has the wrong colors and also, I cannot use Ctrl Alt Q combination to quit UAE. I'll post the log to you as a PM here.

I use a Radeon R7-240 on a Sam460.

Tell me if you want me to test anything.
Thanks

Re: UAE wrong colors

@LiveForIt

As installing version 0.8.29 the color problem went away, I thought something could be wrong but not necessarily in the code.
I understand that if you don't have the issue, it's not easy to understand/fix it.

I can do more tests and provide better understanding of the problem.
Will do so over the week-end.

Hi,

I thought 1.1.2 would fix colors, but they are still wrong here (on OS4). Am I the only one?

Hi,

I tried to compile 1.1.2 but it didn't work. It displayed lany warnings and errors.
If someone can compile it, that would be helpful. Thanks.

Re: Problems using a SiI3132 SATA2 controller card with my SAM460LE

@Swisso

And? ...

With a 3132 card you would go 1.5 faster.
But you cannot boot from it, AFAIK. X5000 Uboot should be updated to support the 3132 upon boot.

Re: Kyvos was updated

Just can't stay away


@walkero

Hi,

Tried Kyvos last month on Linux. The emulation didn't work, apparently because the Qemu I installed was too old (K-L told me).
Maybe you could add a check on the Qemu version that is found in the OS.

Then I abandoned the idea. I should try again...

Bye

I would like to offer some gift to Detlef, an ex-OS4 developer for the great stuff he did.

Anyone has a recent email address?

I see the thread was moved in the free for all section.

@n3m3

Who talked about a Linux theme?
I'm not talking about colors but about features.
I do NOT want anything that is far from being AmigaOS.

Yes, except if you have a better solution. I'm just thinking out loud. Good ideas should stay if there is no even better solution.
I agree. Even Windows have stolen the fonts directory from us

@smarkusg
So this using that old kernel that crashes on me?
No way. I am talking about a giant leap into the future.
If you want to stay in the past. I'm OK with that.

@tao
If you like crashes

David Prosén? Never heard this name.

Judging by your Classic signature, you do not care about what I'm talking about. I'm fine with this.
