Re: Any hope for a Wayfarer browser port for OS 4?


As the Wayfarer code is in ObjectiveC, wouldn't this be a big show stopper for a port?


You're right. It is a show stopper. If we had resources, they would be better used working something else than the support of ObjectiveC. By the way, I don't understand this choice for some MorphOS ...

Re: Fienix - New PowerPC Distro



- "-z" has to be removed in the "ramdisk" line


I tested it today. Both are working. I was able to boot with "-z" and without "-z".


You're right, I tested again with "-z" and that works. I suppose the first time, I made a syntax error elsewhere on the line ...

Anyway ... I still don't know ...

Re: Ubuntu 14.04 and Radeon R7 250


Please note : Hardware 3D acceleration doesn't work with the Radeon HD7xxx series and above (Radeon SI). You need a Radeon HD6xxx series or below.


I use Ubuntu 16.04 with a Radeon HD 7770. I knew there will be no hardware 3D acceleration but ... it also crashes with software rendering with an ...

Re: Fienix - New PowerPC Distro


With the following commands you can boot Fienix 3.0-20200426 with an initial ramdisk from a USB disk:


setenv bootargs "root=LABEL=FIENIX-DISK rootdelay=5"
ramdisk -z -addr=0x24000000 -fatfs usbdisk0:initrd-5.5.img
boot -elf -noints -fatfs -z usbdisk0:zImage-5.5 It takes a long time. I ...

Re: X1000 RAM & Debian Squeeze Linux questions

@xeno74

Sorry for the long delay ... I tested both 5.6 and 5.7-rc6: with 4 GB installed, Ubuntu boots well but with 8 GB there is the same crash (causing a machine reboot).

Re: X1000 RAM & Debian Squeeze Linux questions


Today I tested 4 pc 4GB memory sticks. I.e. 16GB total.
Strange thing, my X1000 succesfully boots only to AmigaOS ( which is unfortunately use 2GB only).
Linux (debian8, fienix, kernel 4.2, 4.20) reboots or freeze.

I made captures of serial debug and will inspect them later - but from first ...

Re: ubuntu MATE 16.04.1 Live DVD



As we are talking about FPS, could you tell how to interpret the 3 values in supertuxkart (I will run it later again).

Which 3 values do you mean?

You can see them in the first screenshot of this page: http://blog.supertuxkart.net/2011/01/graphical-goodness.html

Looking at it now, I ...

Re: ubuntu MATE 16.04.1 Live DVD

@xeno74

About parted_devices, you don't have the first 3 lines but ... one unexpected. So the result is the same: a crash. Too bad about WebKitWebProces ... an error could not be worst than happening in WebKit :-(
Will see if it is possible to circumvent that ...

I definitely thought my X1000 ...

Re: ubuntu MATE 16.04.1 Live DVD

I've found the reason of the ubiquity crash.

The tool parted_devices is used and here it gives:
$ sudo parted_devices
Pralloc = 0, Reserved = 2, blocksize = 4, root block at 586272
Pralloc = 0, Reserved = 2, blocksize = 4, root block at 1768296

@xeno74 Ok, I'm back after xmas holidays.

The user was not in the video but adding it does not change anything.
If it is required, that should be done at installation.
