FutileAnsweredQuestions
o You are annoyed by the constant led switching which also
affects the audio filter ?
It`s used to indicate that the exec scheduler is still alive.
Read <startup.doc> how to disable that.
o The mouse pointer doesn`t move smooth but jumps around ?
You have a lot debug output through <dprintf> on the serial
or to the ram.
o You wanna see debug output ?
Use a serial terminal and set the maximum serial speed
in the <startup> script.
RTS/CTS *only*. No Xon/Xoff.
I connected my Openstep4.2 PC with a nullmodem cable to
my amiga and run <tip ttyb38400> in the shell.
o You wanna see debug output but have no serial terminal ?
Look into <startup.doc> about <Ramdebug> which isn`t
fully equal to a serial debug but should help in most
cases.
o You get graphic problems with ecs/aga demos/games ?
Then the demos are hitting the blitter and that may
cause problems due to timing problems between 68k
and ppc.
o The emulation does NOT care for hardcore hitting
demos or games. If they work...fine...if not..too
bad and wait for some UAE PPC port.
The goal is that cybergraphics friendly programs
work.
o Does it work with the Toaster ?
We don`t know but if it`s in our ability we
hope we can support it.
o Is coldreboot safe ?
No..it isn`t at the moment because a 68k reset
instruction does NOT cause a hardware reset.
It`s only a soft reset but if a soft reset is
caused and accidently some left over interrupt
condition is pending from some hardware we may
run into a deadlock.
