Good job!
i dont know if is possible to hack system timer speed on Dosbox ... but if possible try to set it with different value there.

on softwindows i have have this result with a small hack

the machine will gave in console eg 10 fps on quake but in reality it will be 1800 fps...
this had make me have on G5 f1gp 2 at super great performaces

@kas1e
Quad g5 mate 32bit dosbox patched frameskip 0

timedemo demo2

quake 320x200 scaler none 16.1 fps
quake 320x200 scaler normal 2x 15.2 fps

dosbox cpu 486_slow
quake 320x200 scaler none 16.2 fps
quake 320x200 scaler normal 2x 15.5 fps


i tested mdk with pentium_slow options the speed are exactly like qemu. and this is good

tested needfor speed, vrsoccer, dukenukem all are really good enjoyable.

i will check on debian PPC64 because on mate dosbox use 2 threads ... 2 cores :-O im courious there on debian

@samo79

i know, i had use the same core patch used from kas1e for his aos version

@kas1e

yesterday i parched doxbox svn with the diff on linux ppc. result no issue with the diff but when i try to select the core=dynamic doxbox reply me it swithced to auto because the option core was not available.
Did you make more implementation on the AOS sources extra diff for make it work??

thx

good job kas1e. i suggest in future to add the 3dfx module too. probably now with jit cpu you will have decent performance with it too.

@kas1e

in the quake command prompt, usually it exit with pressing in the game menù "tab" on the keyb.
timedemo demo1
and
timedemo demo2

the result will be show at the end of the demo on the command prompt

ps: when you run the command press fast the tab again or the command promt will be there and will meke the demo not run at real spead (because not all the scene will be rendered)

I think this was did in dosbox for Boxer. A dosbox modded version for MacOSx PPC leopard. If was it i confirm was much more faster than standard dosbox.

By the way Kas1e can be possible have the link with the original inculde for make i build it in a dosbox for lnx?
thanks

Guys,
is possible have the fimware upgrade file ?
It is not available any more on the blan/Genesys web site

@Hans

ok i understand now x5000 can be used in poles and not in italy ... is better warn user about "this machine need to work at home temperature not more hight then 28° celsious or you will face freeze if work in smp"

by the way, i ask aeon what kind of water cooling system can be compatible to p5040 because was my intention buy it ... and no reply.
when an object is in garancy and prize more than a motorbike im sorry but for me is normal ask the producer...


about issue with pc ...never in my life i see too much problems on a machine like i face on this one. i build my pc,my amiga, my macs from 1990 and the worst mobo never gave me this issues.

@RIBDEVIL

this issue come if you turn on first x5000 after the monitor.
start first the monitor wait a little bit and turn on x5000.

voltage drops ? umm on the devices if yes swap dvdrom on sata0 and hd on sata1 .... because this machine suffer of fpdma issue on atapi device if on sata1

the others i dont have solution ... just cry

@Hans

is not only mine issue, this issue other people see like hd led,power led turned on when the machine is powered off.

i was disgusted for all the situation.
machine suffer of overheating inside an aero cool case with two big fan case. Overheating come out when i build with in smp with j4 ... on single thread or dual no issue.
i solved this in this way case opened and this extra fan:

link

reported to trevor 2 times, 3 email to aeon (trevor and matthew) for ask an water cooling solution ... result no reply. Plus for my discovers, alfa testing, found issue, made linux working, try to find possible solutions i knowed thru an happy email that i pay the machine more than the people that will start beta testing now(!!!!) and this made me really nervous.

for me beta testing a machine means test all the hardware not only an os.

sorry but like i say to everyone ... you, gullaume, christian made a great job ... same i can say to the hyperion guys did the best with less resources.... but the managment of aeon i think need to have a reset. and start understand that without real hardware testers and beta users all is lost... and sorry i prefer leave this boat before will goes totally under the sea.

...doubled post (?)

@Spectre660

tested the same gpu on a pc and there there is not this issue.
Note the two X5000 case internal fans (mobo fans plugs) continue run with poweroff psu (off psu switch)
they stop running only when i pull out the hdmi from the gpu.
this issue is present on X5000 20 and X5000 40. reported many time ago to trevor
result no reply.

this one of the reasons why i exit from the linux manteiners (and all e-eon mailing lists) and not sign the nda for x5000/40 ... no replies to the hw issue (are many) that i found and i had been reported to a-eon.

plus they made me pay about 50 gpb +22% vat more the motherboard without ram and pci lans compared the other beta tester and i made the alfa testing 1 year before the betatester.

my motto now is #nomoreaeoninmyhome

@Spectre660

I have exactly that gpu on x5000/40

@afxgroup

i did it on my x5000... and serial message was : i m crap

@JosDuchIt

i had a strange esperience with my sam440.
it was working to me ... i sold it to a guy and to him was not starting. he sand it back to me and it was working . i resend the machine to him and nothing...
my first think was to the monitor i think some voltage run(or not) on the dvi plug.
this small voltage dont make sam turn on.
I have this on x5000 too.
if i dont turn on the monitor the machine dont turn on, this come with the new gpu oldest dont have this "issue".

@xenic

i dont wont my x5000 too

@Raziel

welcome in the club ... this is one of the reasons why i will not have any more a-eon products in my home

@RIBDEVIL

No problem. just is need to wait monday because im not at home.

@LiveForIt

My X5000 with euae jit sld running
