Re: A compatible SoundCard for AmigaOS 4.1 and OS 3.9

I have a Turtle Beach "Amigo II" that was inexpensive, sounds good (they used to compete with Creative), is plug-and-play with Deneb/Poseidon, and has a name that near "Amiga." It has audio out and mic in with a glowing blue LED. I don't see why it can't be used internally, altho...

Re: AmigaOS Classic 4.1 Update2 fails to install

Here are the "drive speeds;" I used the Mediator DriveSpeed program since it ran under both OS's and it was easy to use. I believe the results are in bytes and not bits. OS 4.1 USB Hard Drive 5.5 Meg/s (used a Seagate 320 Gb FreeGo on Deneb) UWSCSI Hard drive 15.0 Meg/s (Quantum Atlas V 18...

Re: AmigaOS Classic 4.1 Update2 fails to install

Hey Again! You are right (although perception and statistics provide a wide void) about speed across the Zorro III bus with both the the ZorRam and SATA card; SATA would give cheap access to a DVD (or even BluRay) drive -- although in black. I looked at the USB card solution, and externally it works...

Re: AmigaOS Classic 4.1 Update2 fails to install

Thanks again Calgor for the rapid reply! The few seconds (if any) I would gain in loading up the flash ROM of the Deneb is not worth the trial-and-error time wasted when, after all, all I wanted was USB access. I "scoped out" the TerraTec card, and the pickings were few in the cheap range;...

Re: AmigaOS Classic 4.1 Update2 fails to install

Calgor, thanks for the quick reply! As for the Deneb, I used only the A1000 Jingle to test with, and it caused OS 4.1 not to boot. I didn't try anything else and just emptied the flash ROM, said a prayer and moved along. I saw the same thing you did with the ZorRam -- OS 4.1 fluidly switches over ar...

Re: AmigaOS Classic 4.1 Update2 fails to install

Hi there Calgor! Thanks for the reply. I bought my Mediator 3000/4000T directly from Elbox around August last year, and (guessing from their software dates) it should be a recent hardware product. I gutted Ami and re-flashed V11 in to the Deneb and it now uses PIO transfer in Z3 mode -- don't even g...

Re: AmigaOS Classic 4.1 Update2 fails to install

AlekC, glad to have your input! Yes, I have tried using DHCP (which works beautifully with the usbasixeth.device), but both DHCP and static addressing fail to get to the internet using the RTL8029 device in Mediator (under OS 3.9); and both AmiTCP and Miami_DX act the same. I admit that I have a poo...

Re: AmigaOS Classic 4.1 Update2 fails to install

Dear Calgor, Yes, you I correct. I was reading the version of the input.device in the DEVS: directory, which must have been placed there by Poseidon; the memory resident input.device is indeed version 53.3. I used ARTM to check this. It appears however that the conundrum still exists, with the corre...

Re: AmigaOS Classic 4.1 Update2 fails to install

Hi there! Funny you should ask: I received my RTL8029AS NIC card yesterday and it works fine (after some "tweaking") under OS 4.1 and RoadShow. However, in OS 3.9 It allows me to see my LAN using Miami_DX and AmiTCP 3.? but not the internet; bummer. I'm working on this issue. I traced down...

Re: AmigaOS Classic 4.1 Update2 fails to install

Dear Calgor, Sorry I could not make sense out of the Scout information -- I saw nothing like what you reported); maybe because the Deneb was in Z2 mode(?) or I was not into hex mode. I went back, re-downloaded Version 11 of the Deneb Firmware flash, opened to a basic 3.1 OS workbench and re-flashed ...
