Did anyone have luck running SimTower under Executor ?
I tried to run it under E/D 1.99p2 and the first screen came up, but then
there was a screen problem (I tried refresh), but the menus worked so I could
quit the application.
Thanks,
Ziv Arazi

Hi,
If you've already installed 1.99p, I hope you can pick up 1.99p3 and
test it against any applications you'd like to see run under 2.0 (be
reasonable, sound and QuickTime will definitely not be supported).
Then, send us bug reports about the largest problems you see.
We still have plenty of things to work on during the remaining 10 days
of Hackathon II left, but we want to be sure we don't overlook
anything. However, please remember that we may prioritize things
differently, so even if you report a bug there's no guarantee that
we'll be able to look into it.
In ten days, after Cotton leaves, Mat will resume work on the
NEXTSTEP/Motorola port.

Linux: ftp://vorlon.mit.edu/pub/ardi/BleedingEdge/Linux/aout-199p3.tar.gz
or ftp://vorlon.mit.edu/pub/ardi/BleedingEdge/Linux/elf-199p3.tar.gz
NEXTSTEP (Intel only):

In addition to the work that is reflected in 1.99p, I have also done
some work on the Browser, but I have a few other mods I want to make
to the System file before rolling a new release. We're hoping that
1.99q will be our last pre-beta release and that we'll go into beta by
the end of the month.
NOTE: I was not able to reproduce the slowdown that occurs when some
people open DOS drives under E/D. Mat did make some modifications to
our interrupt code, so there's a slight chance that the mods speed
things up. I will send more e-mail about this particular problem
later.

Is sound really that hard of a problem to conquer?
