Hi,

I have known for a while that my Amiga, which uses an SCSI controller (phase5) has a disk access problem. It seems to work fine for 20..35 minutes, but then inevitably stops. Sometimes it's hanging, other times it's the expansion presenting an error message in a window of its own (this, I think, is an early warning even). Today in the shell environment I tried to "dir" the RAM Disk, and Smartfilesystem reported
"There was an error while accessing this volume:

Selection timeout.
The device doesn't respond.

errorcode = 44
io_Command = 2
io_Offset = 2695168
io_Length = 8192
io_Actual = 0
"

Would all that imply any particular part of the whole or is it just ambiguous?

I haven't bothered using the CD drive lately, which is also on SCSI.

Did you try moving the sdl2 link library before its dependencies? At least when I did these the linker never figured it out on its own.

Did I understand this right? On actual partition the long filenames cannot be created in any way. But if they already exist, then as they are copied from RAM: the names are truncated and when they are read (maybe written to?) the short form is fine as long as the names are unique.

My A1XE has been out for a year. :|
Nothing comes on screen and keyboard stays the same.

@Liveforit

PSU: I have two that are each installed simply enough. I hope they are both gone, as opposed to something else.

@levellord

The lowlevel section is only for backwards compatibility with games / software that uses lowlevel.library. These typically do not support Amigainput at all. The original library was (probably) made for the CD32 console.

@Amiguy

For me it doesn't seem to matter, nothing is updated from any of them. I didn't try all possible combinations.

How's it compare bitrate per pixel per ... quality? Maybe need to determine if it's lossy... not sure if that would be more challenging than lossless compression.

I don't suppose it's some thing turned into bigendian (only).

Is AGS by ScummVM happening for AmigaOS?

Is 2.47 working? I still get just some message about Amiupdate updating itself, and it never does.

Well, graphics is already about converting everything... especially as PNG isn't supported in old software. Spreadsheets too.

There should be a warning in gcc for that. It's *the* cross platform toolchain.

For me Updates prefs has the check for AU update when user started bit checked, but it doesn't seem to be able to update from 2.47.

au.log just has "Opening window" and then when I close it, "Closing program".

Might make a difference or not, but did you press keys on mplayer (cursors r,u and pgup)?

@mdr

Maybe a write-protect is in order? See Lock.doc.

How might the player accept keyboard events when not doing video? Is that possible in just Shell?

Skirting the topic...
six years ago I built a partial (no networking) Quakespasm on top of SDL 1.2. The project has SDL2 supported, too and seems to have had many new versions since. Excerpt from changelog:
"Raised MAXALIASTRIS from 2048 to 4096, so that the Slayer's Testaments mod works." Ie. new game mods want new or weird things.

What I remember doing was making some changes regarding minigl missing stuff, and on top of that I think I failed to have multitexturing, too.

So that could be an engine version for both GPU/driver types.

@AmigaBlitter

I'm thinking that would depend on whether you are targeting "all accelerated" or merely the Radeon HD bunch.

Oh, I did something like only upload to Aminet earlier once? But yes, OS4Depot has the latest build.

@sTix

ScummVM 2.2.0 is a 63 MB executable. That is more than Odyssey web browser!

@Raziel

There's a Path ADD APPDIR:
in startup-sequence

and if I do "which cp all" I get the same cp full path twice, since APPDIR: will be automatically expanded (that's how I figure it).

Avatar isn't broken, it's something in Odyssey. Multiview and anything else deal with it.
