@AMIGASYSTEM Thanks for the information concerning DOpus. I will try re-installing. Maybe, as you said, something went wrong during the installation. (y)

Strange this should not happen, probably something went wrong during the installation ... Dopus4 needs the asyncio.library which is not present in the Build ! If you use the latest Build you have to get the library from the latest contrib

Hi everyone, I have just installed AROS (regular, no distro) onto an Acer Aspire One. It boots up fine and I can click around in Wanderer etc. The problem is... if I try to run a program, say DOpus 4 or another executable, the whole system freezes. How can one solve this problem? Maybe it is best to install one of the distros instead? Thanks in advance for your help. :)

The Acer arrived today! I must say it is a neat, little computer. :-) I'm going to install AROS on it this weekend. Looking forward to that.

yes as deadwood says you have to select from GRUB 'native mode' your cards should be supported, then select the resolution most suitable for you on the preferences tool

Okay, then the application in question is "DigiClock" is the digital clock that is on the top bar, to close it is very easy, just highlight the bar and use the ESC key. Once you close "DigiClock" when you save you won't have any more prompts. If you want to delete it instead move "DigiClock" from the WBStartup system folder to wherever you want, in some cases if you need it you will have to click on it. If you need more info in Italian about AROS One we can hear each other on Amigapage

I use your Aros One and like i write above...after a reboot the new resolution is used.

You are told to close all windows because there is a "third party" application open on Wanderer, what distribution are you using ? In any case even if you have the prompt to close the application, once saved on reboot the new resolution should have been saved ! Of course to work the AROS save must have been installed on HD or if it is on a Pendrive

Thank you. It worked but only after a reboot. When i try to change resolution with "ScreenMode" utility it says to close all the windows open apart from Wanderer...but seems wasn't able to finish. A reboot and all is working at the resolution selected.

You need to select first option in grub menu: AROS (native graphics). Then the nvidia driver will kick in if card is detected. If you go to SYS:Prefs/ScreenMode you should see supported video modes. Select the one you want and click Save.

Hi I have 3 PC in my house, but none have hardware supported by current Aros release to enable 3D (OpenGL). I have one PC with Nvidia GeForce 6800 XT One with Nvidia GTX 260 and one with integrated AMD Radeon 6310. Now from an old PC i found a Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS that i think is supported...but what i need to change in Grub to enable 3D support and have a resolution of 1280*1024 ? Thanks

yes it is fully compatible:)

Finally found a computer! Acer Aspire One! (y) Apx. 17 EUR + postage. The seller claims it is fully working with battery and charger. Will be fun to experiment with this one!

you have to have a mixer and turn up the gain of the source:)

hi all i checked the audio recording on aros again my sound card is supported by the hdaudio driver i had to raise the gain by 20 db to hear anything and it is still low but with audioevoluton you can raise it more by selecting the gain in the effects set up regards

[quote name=amigamia post=4672]@amigamia OK Fair enough. Perhaps we should take a look to Stack Attack and see if it can be reverse engineered. [/quote] Stack Attack includes the sources, but they are ASM There is also Stack Attack 2 http://aminet.net/package/util/boot/StackAttack2

Yes the GCC Guru is also known, we have talked about it here on the forum, if you compile small and simple sources you don't need the Stack, but when you compile large and comomplex sources you have to give a Stack of 200000.

[quote name=AMIGASYSTEM post=4670]@AMIGASYSTEM - The Stack from the Shell works only once, if you close the Shell, and start a new Shell you will have to set the Stack again. You can't set the Stack globally in the Startup - sequence or other place, it won't work, on OS3 there is "StackAttack" which automatically sets the necessary Stack, unfortunately on AROS there is no such thing, indispensable tool like this. https://aminet.net/package/util/boot/StackAttack2 [/quote] OK Fair enough.

[quote] Before deploying AROS One "every time" I test all the included software, with OpenTyrian I only tested that it would boot. if I were to play with all games it would take weeks of testing.. Probably besides OpenTyrian there may be some other software where you will need to increase the Stack, also consider the opposite, on AROS One there are settings that without my Icon settings could not start. [/quote] Well, thank you for that! [quote] If you exit the game by clicking on the exit gadget from the window, you will always get a Guru, this also happens with the reference ISO, see screenshot. [/quote] That's a known bug in the implementation of the AROS SDL_quit function. I remember reading about it on another SDL based application/game, which I can't remember the name at the moment. There was a work around I believe. If I manage to find that, I'll try to recompile it. The game quits just fine if you use the Esc key or use the exit game from the menu. BTW, also using GCC may require a larger stack. It GURUs when compiling Open Tyrian on AROS Native.

Just FYI, I opened a shell and set the stack there. I did not change the stack on the application icon. I assume one sets it globally for the entire OS and the other is for the application only? What's the benefit of one vs the other? Also, many other apps that had their own icon have been changed with your icon set. Are you going one by one to check stack requirements? I presume OpenTyrian isn't the only software to benefit from a large stack. Maybe that is why I am experiencing the annoying GURU while working in AROS One?
