Hi Pupnik,

I can't seem to find the link to this version on your page? Any chance of you to host it on your website? Thanks in advance.

There are lots of RAM settings to try out. I didn't have a chance to actually run anything yet.

wow
the ideal of holding an Amiga in my hand.. i can't wait to try it on my n800 (os2008)...
i used to live and breath Amiga. I still have a a500 and a2500 tucked away in my closet.
speaking of.. dose anyone have a clue about how i could attempt to transfer files off of a Amiga HD or floppies over to my pc ?

Thanks for the interest.

I do have a modified frontend to fit on the 800x480 screen. Trying to cobble-together a runnable deb now.

Unfortunately OS2006 needs changes to register app with services - dbus/hildon and stuff. And the gui is crashing on me. Argh.



Anybody with some hildon/gtk skillz want to pick this up? I'll post debs and source in a bit.

Aight. the chinook now actually can launch from menu. with gregale ya need to do the services bit that i never really learned.
The gtk still needs some cleanup. The uae prog itself still draws crap to the right, doesn't scale properly, has useless borders, needs mouse calibration. But i tested a few games, and they run at semi-decent speed on N8x0.

http://pupnik.de/uae_pupnik_002.tgz 1458931 2008-02-29 Modified source, with chinook makefile

I used ./configure --with-x and --with-alsa .. the sdl backend doesn't build and appears unmaintained. Much to do here.. I have to work on other things.

What i did in the past (and I am talking here about IDE drives from Amiga 1200) was to take the HD and under linux create a bit by bit copy of it. Then I would cut the file so the partitions become separate files and then used those in UAE as hardfiles and it worked (even if the partitions are in AFS/MUFS or PFS you can still get the data back, all you need is the apropriate handlers and fs files on your starting disc). It worked for me. I would however have no idea how to transfer files (other than through serial/parrallel/ethernet cables) from the old xt hard drives such as A590). But I suppose if your drive is scsi then you might follow the same procedure with apropriate controller on the pc.
Or perhaps you even can use the drive in uae directly (it should be possible if I remember correctly).

If it's usable, could you upload the compiled version somewhere? I'd love to try it out

Sure. I uploaded it this morning (along with a now uncorrupt minivmac tarball): http://cid-de1b8fbb27739ebd.skydrive...x/Public/files

I can mount the AmiSys hard drive file and directory, but can't figure out how to get things going from Workbench 3.1.

Doh! Now I find the English page for AmiSys: http://amigasys.extra.hu/

I've tried http://pupnik.de/uae_0.8.25-6_chinook.deb on diablo/N810. It installs fine, but starting it from the menu does not work. It says "UAE loading" and thats it. I can start it from the terminal though.
I also have the feeling that it does not remeber the settings. Now I have to find some adf/adz where something happens. So far I just got a black screen after un-pausing.

Yeah, Turrican (I) loads. Seem that adz files don't work. I also did not got any sound. @ArnimS: are you still working on it? I could help you a bit with the gtk-ui and also add full-screen mode. Do you have the sources in a repository? What about garage.maemo.org?

any updates so far?
it loads a few seconds... - thats it. it wont start.

tried on diablo and chinook.
