How to inactivate Insert/Overwrite button?
Just popping in
Just popping in


How could I 'inactivate' the Insert/Overwrite button (located above 'Del' button)? I press it very often accidentally when I write something, and start to overwrite my text... I would like to keep the 'Insert' mode permanently.

I know that I succeeded to do it some times earlier, but cannot anymore remember how...

Can this be done with Allkeys? I already tried, but did not succeed... Can someone please give a template...?

Re: E-UAE 1.1.2 - how to load the configuration file automatically?

@LiveForIt

Thanks! The 'option 2' is working best.

My next concern is how to set the "cpu_speed=" parameter. When I set it to 'max', the emulator (CPU) runs at about 4.5x faster than A4000. But when I tried different integers between 1 and 20, I could not find a value that would give a speed of about 2x A4000 and use the half of X5000's cpu time. The emulator was running always much slower that the 'max' speed.

E-UAE 1.1.2 - how to load the configuration file automatically?
Just popping in
Just popping in


I'am testing E-UAE 1.1.2 on my X5000. The older 1.0.0, when started from an icon, loads and uses automaticallly a '.uaerc' file located in the same dir as the program. Why doesn't the 1.1.2 do the same? Instead, it opens a requester asking to choose a configuration file!

How can I force the 1.1.2 to load the configuration file automatically, when run from an icon? Is there a tooltype for that purpose?

Re: Odyssey 3.0 alpha - how to disable disk cache?

@deadwoodQuote:
I don't recall if there is an option to disable it completly. You can switch to "Document Viewer" mode instead of "Document Browser" or "Primary Web Browser". In "Document Viewer" mode the caches (memory and disk) are the smallest.


Thanks! In "Document viewer" mode the cache dir stays empty. But in Odyssey 1.23 I do not even have the 'cache' dir, and Odyssey do not create it even if I use 'Document browser' mode (in contrast to v. 3,0).

Odyssey 3.0 alpha - how to disable disk cache?
Just popping in
Just popping in


Is there currently a way to disable disk cache in Odyssey 3.0? The cache option in prefs is alredy 'off' but the conf/cache dir is filled continuously.

In the readme file there is mentioned an env variable affecting cache, "OWB_DISABLE_MOBILE_COMPRESSION", but it does not seem to have any effect. I tried to put it on the 'tooltypes', and also run on cli 'setenv OWB_DISABLE_MOBILE_COMPRESSION save', but either of the them worked.

I haven't seen yet any news concerning AmiWest25... Was there anything new related to AmigaOS4? How about the Enhancer update? Or a new version of Emotion?

Re: AmigaOS 4.1 FE Update3: softboot blinks backlit leds of keyboard

@kikems

I have the same machine... As a workaround, I created with 'FKey' a macro, which runs the command 'sys:c/reboot fast' when I press 'ctrl-lamiga-b' combination. That command does not awake the blinking...

Unfortunately FKey was not able to reprogram directly the 'ctrl-lamiga-ramiga' combination. I wonder whether some other keyboard tool can do that?

My keyboard (silicon graphics usb keyboard) blink 3 times light during boot up with upd 2 and upd 3.

Which AmigaOne model do you have? Does that happen independently of the way you boot/reboot? In my case it is only the ctrl-A-A, which is peculiar.

AmigaOS 4.1 FE Update3: softboot blinks backlit leds of keyboard

I noticed a strange thing after installing AmigaOS 4.1 FE Update3 on my X5000... If I do soft reboot (Ctrl-Amiga-Amiga) all the backlit leds of my Ducky One keyboard blink three times during the WB is reloaded! Very spooky...

Is there a way to get rid of this peculiarity? I have never seen this before I installed Update3. I have switched all the backlit leds off from the keybord's own settings. Is this blinking somehow related to the changes made in the USB software?

BTW, this does not happen if I reboot with ctrl-alt-alt, or when I start my machine from the power button.

@broadbluesQuote:
There is no simple way to do it as it's not a simple thing to do, or a common image manipulation operation.

That's what I was afraid of... Do you know any other program (Amiga or Linux) which could do the trick? I already had a quick look on Gimp but did not find that type of command.

Quote:
YOu might script it with arexx,

You would need to duplicate the buffer, crop the top half, crop again below the pixels you want to lose and then adjust the sizes and offsets before flattening the result.

That does not work if the pictures you mainipulate are not similar enough... You should then make a custom script for each file.

Deleting complete pixel lines in ImageFx4?
Just popping in
Just popping in


I have never figured out how to delete in ImageFX4 complete pixel rows in the _middle_ of the picture (not at the top or the bottom) so that the size of the picture will similtaneously decrease.

Is there any SIMPLE way to do that? Using copy and paste is too tedious and inaccurate on a small screen...

Who is the author of the accordion piece which is played just before the first mission in the original Wings game? Does the piece have a name? Is there a score available for it? I do not anymore have the game, so I cannot check whether there is any info in the credits.

It was just announced that the newest UBoot update for Sam460-line includes support for NVMe SSDs (https://www.acube-systems.biz/index.php?page=news&id=163).

How about X5000? Will A-Eon offer the same improvement for X5000 UBoot?

You can check the nearest dealers from this site:

In my country the price of TX-650 varies between 225 and 250 eur (without shipping).

Can you write where you bought this Seasonic TX-650?


I got it directly from Seasonic. I had an older 660w modell in which there was a problem in the power switch. It was still under guarantee, so they replaced it with the TX-650.

Ok, thanks for the confirmation! Can you please also tell, whether the NVMe driver is still planned to be included in the next (or later) upgrade? There has been very contradictory information about it on this forum...

The PSU of the pc died on me yesterday and I exchanged it with the one from my X-5000, which is a Lepa Maxbron B700M (so 700W).

I am looking for a new PSU since this one is not available anymore so was wondering what Amigans are using in their machine (and I think 700W is probably too much even with a RadeonHD R9-270 or RX 580)

I would strongly recommend to choose for X5000 a PSU with the HIGHEST possible quality (and often price ;) as the Cyrus board is very expensive and sensitive!

I'm just now testing in my X5040 a Seasonic Prime TX-650 650W PSU. I had earlier the 550W Seasonic Focus many other users recommended here, but after I started to have those sudden "shut-down's" I decided to test the Prime which is of higher quality. I will see later whether it solves the issue... At least some of the voltages are higher than they were with the 550W Focus.
