hum, i don=B4t know about that new flashupdate from feb or march 2000, bu=
t
with the one from march 30 1999 it works... for example i can start
frodoPPC (PowerUP) AND frodoWOS (WOS ;) at the same time and they both wo=
rk
without major problems (although a bit slow, 2 C64 is a bit much for my
603/240 =3D) )... or take myzar with the powerup client, it always sits i=
n
the background and munches rc5 blocks, while i load pictures via my warpO=
S
datatypes, well, all without one single termination requester!

the trick is simple, kick out the whole ROM-powerup library with bppcfix =
on
bootup, and install powerup emulation library, read the docs to set the e=
nv
correctly and *magic* it works!
