Re: Docky transparency on 16bit screens

And using ' IGraphics->CompositeTags()'? No, as I wrote in my first post I'm using BltBitMapTags() but.... IGraphics->CompositeTags(COMPOSITE_Src_Over_Dest, tempBM, dd->rp->BitMap, COMPTAG_SrcWidth,<WIDTH>, COMPTAG_SrcHeight,<HEIGHT>, COMPTAG_ScaleX,COMP_FLOAT_TO_FIX(dd->scaleflag), COMPTAG_ScaleY,...

Docky transparency on 16bit screens

I have written a docky that requests DOCKYRENDERMODE_RPPA and then draws a 32bit bitmap (containing color and alpha channel transparency information) whenever it receives DOCKYSET_RedrawNow. I draw this bitmap using BltBitMapTags(). This is working fine but only on 32bit screens. Once I switch Workb...

Re: Ubuntu 12.04 capricious behaviour and why only USB/CF lo

The filesystem is probably allright, but it is on a RDB partition. You need a MBR partition.
Is there a way to check if the HD uses RDB or MBR?

And if it's really RDB partitioned, is there a way to create an MBR as well? IIRC it is possible for RDB and MBR to co-exist somehow, isn't it?

Re: Ubuntu 12.04 capricious behaviour and why only USB/CF lo

Do you have a HD6870 graphics card by any chance? What you are describing is an obscure CFE bug that affects some systems with 2G ram, a Radeon card with a 256bit memory interface and an IOMMU enabled kernel. No, I've a 5450. For some reason, adding '-nousb' to the CFE bootargs seems to help. I've ...

Ubuntu 12.04 capricious behaviour and why only USB/CF loader

I've just installed Ubuntu 12.04 from AmigaKit's Remix DVD and it doesn't always boot straight through, but quite often shows a kernel panic claiming Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) I do have 2 GB RAM and the specified device name (/dev/sda4) is also correct. Whenever the error happens...

Re: Running Shogo on A1200 PPC

Seems to have been related to CyberGuard. Once I remove CyberGuard from the User-Startup it's working fine. Issue solved.

Re: Running Shogo on A1200 PPC

But the hardware renderer is working while in menu mode. The menu animation is much smoother with the hardware renderer than with the software one! And I'm not on any exotic video hardware but just a stock BVision PPC which should really be supported by the hardware renderer, shouldn't it?

Running Shogo on A1200 PPC

(This should really be in the Shogo forum but I cannot post there) Could somebody tell me how to get Shogo running on my A1200 PPC? The A1200 is equipped with a Blizzard PPC 240mhz, SCSI, 68060 and a BVision PPC. Latest Warp3D and WarpOS are installed. Shogo runs fine when using the software rendere...
