Hi Jim, Thanks for a reply. I have the drive setup as SCSI ID 4 with six logical units to that ID. I also used the PD utility SCSI_Prefs to select mutli LUN support on my A3000. I am currently playing with a program called AmiCDROM and it actually seems…
Pioneer 602x problems
Message #179776
Do any of you use the Pioneer DRM 602X 6 pack CD ROM system? If so what driver software are you using? I am getting just a little annoyed with this thing! Here is my setup: A3000 with a NEC 3xe, 2 Fujistu 1.2 gig drives and a Quantum 52…
#NEC 3Xe CD-ROM Drive
Message #130427
Is anyone using the new NEC 3Xe CD-ROM drive on their Amiga? If so how good is it and what did you have to do to get it to work etc..
Who did you buy them from? I have tried calling just about everyone in Amiga World and everyone is saying thats they dont think that its a continued product! And non of them have any in stock.
#Multi-Serial Port Cards
Message #107212
HELP!!! I am searching for A2232 multi-serial port boards or something that has at least the same capability as those boards. Does Commodore even make that board anymore or does anyone else make something close?
Make sure that your SCSI controllers dont have the same ID number set on them. That usually entails changing jumpers somewhere to select the ID that you want. I have ran an A2000 and an A3000 on a SCSI net along with a 1.2 Gig hard drive. Things seemed to…
You might try using the library call to refresh/render your gadgets. Are you using ADOS 1.3 or 2.0? Either way if your gadgets are not visible, then refresh them.
I found the area in the manual for SMAKE … my brain has been fried for the least couple of weeks … ugh! At least I can blame it on the local flu bug.
For your info … the Xoper version that I was using was 2.2 Dated: 1989. As far as I can tell everything is working great. I have revamped a lot of my programs to either run background or resident and I have had NO problems at all … just that…
Great news!!! I am not crazy and you guys are right!! … looks like the problem was Xoper itself. I am using an old version and I thougt everything was still ok with it etc.. All of this code not working stuff on my machine but just fine on yours…
I am getting really weirded out. I screen captured that code that you left me in a previous message and I compiled it using the cback.o module from my V6.0 disk. It did the same thing to me!! This program you said you used SLIST or something like that ……
I dont know where I displayed an angry tone with my posting … got me on that one. I just stated things in a cut and dry manner and I believe I tried to convey the info … and if you thinking I was slamming SAS … that was not…
That response should have went to me I guess. What I believe that the BBS program is doing is basically a "run xxx" etc.. I will ask the author to make sure. Its hard to tell since he has ARexx, C, DOS and someothere things that can be launced by…
I will give it a shot with the 6.0 version of cback.o. I do believe thats the version that I gave it a try with first. I will check again to make sure and if it doesn't work this time I will send you a copy of the program that…
This is the sequence of events. From startup … in the user-startup file I set my stack to 45,000 off the bat. What I did again tonight to make sure that I was not dorking anything up was (NOTE: I have V6.0 and I got the patches for V6.1 from…
Ok, I dont know if I am being stupid or not … but I tried the CBACK link option already and when I even ran the sample program that came with the compiler … according to Xoper the stack was STILL the same size as the CLI that it was…
The problem is that stack that the process that spawns my program is already running with a stack of at least 40k. I have NO CONTROL over the stack befre my program is launched. The blasted thing is huge! Why can't I do something to make the stack size that…
SAS Stack setting?
Message #31173
Got a guestion for any of you SAS C Guru's … I just picked up V6.0 today and I was trying to do some work with background task. I thought that setting the option "long __stacksize = xxxx;" would allow me to set the stack that my task would be…
True … but what the heck, I never take the easy way out! Strange Code -r- Us
I have everything working now. Yeah, I was using GT_GetMsg vice the standard GetMsg. I was getting confused on how to play with the new gadgets. What I wanted to do was set the slider gadgets and MX gadgets to pre-define (or whatever my programs current) levels when I opened…
Well I couldn't see the forest for the trees! I finally decided to put it thru the old debugger and it stuck out like a sore thumb. What I totally forgot to do was stay withing my second IDCMP loop until I was done with the second window. I would…
I am talking about the new GadTools MX gadgets. I know all that you do is check out the Code field to see which one is active but here is my problem. I got a window setup to be sorta like a requestor and I have a bunch of MX…
One question concerning the MX Gadgets. I have been playing around with them and I can't really figure out what in the heck to do. My problem is when you have say a MX gadget with 4 elements … and you run the program and select one of the elements.…
Hmm … well now all that I have to do is find something like that with Manx. Time to call their support board I guess. Thanks anyways.
Well I am using Manx 5.2a and I thought that there was something on the disk for it, but I got to find them first! What does SAS give for info? I dont care if its assembly code or what, I can put it into my code with no problem.
#Setting Stack Size
Message #25325
Question for any of you C programmers. How do I go about setting the stack size for my program. I know that the program will assume the stack size of the CLI that it is running in etc.. but how would I make it so I can have a different…
Thanks for the code .. will let you know if I get into more trouble.

#2.0 ListView Gadgets
Message #20943
I have been trying to get a ListView gadget to work for about a week now. My problem is I can figure out how to attach an exec List to the gadget. I know what it says in the ROM Kernal manual but I can't get anything to work. This…

Thanks for the info. Another question … what are the other switch settings for. Also, does that tape drive have an external terminator for its SCSI bus or is it internal? He said something about it having a plug but doesn't know where it is. There is a plug on…
Tape Drive Setup
Message #41236
A friend of mine has an A3070 Tape Backup Unit. While moving from one place to another he lost the manual. My questions is how do you set the Tape Drive up? He is using a Xetec SCSI controller and according to its book you just stick it into the…
#Bitmaps
Message #104220
Have any of you ever used the IFF Library to load a picture into a windows BitMap? or created a custom bitmap, loaded into the custom bitmap then point the window to it? I have been trying everything I can think of to get an IFF picture into a windows…
