Help - OS 3.9 WinUAE and a loot of questions :)

[misio]

Hi everybody.
I need some help with my OS 3.9 on WinUAE 0.8.27.
A little screen to visualize my problem :-)

So 1)
What should I do to patch the RAM icon permanently. Because after every restart I see the default one.
I found a tut how to change it with makefile and linkimage or something but it doesn't work :-(

2)
What should I use to patch the window look. The bar scrollers etc.

3)
I have problems with CD-ROM. I tried to change the CDROM unit number in DEVS but it doesn't work. What should I d to use CDROM under WinUAE

4)
I'm trying to hear some MP3 on AMPlifier but I always have error - no AHI device v4 or something. I have AHI. I've installed it and it doesn't work :-( Help ?

and last but not least
4)
Internet in WinUAE. I don't know what I need to have Internet on WinUAE.

It's been over 10 years since I was playing my real A1200 for the last time. I forgot almost everything :-( But now it's time to get back to this OS :-D

[MrZammler]

1) Check this: http://www.nyx.net/~rdavis/AmigaHints2.html

2) Get Birdie2000 and VisualPrefs

3) No idea. ;-)

4) Open a shell and check if ahi.device is V4 (>version ahi.device full)

5) Enable bsdsocket emulation from the winuae prefs, connect to the net on the windows side, and amigaos should have access to the internet.

Man. That was quick !
OK I'll check this :-)
Thank You :-)
------------
After a check.
Internet is working ;-D

AHI. here is what I've got

5.Hd:> version ahi.device full
ahi.device 4.180 (10/31/1997)
1994-1997 Martin Blom. 68020+ version.

But after try to play an mp3 i've got:

Couldn't open AHI device V4!

After changing the ram icon I've got info that file is wrong. I'm using PowerIcons. I tried to rename the new icon to ramdisk ramdisk.info ramdisk.icon. but they didn't work :-(

[misio]

One more thing.
I can't get the VisualPrefs GUI. I can't find it or I can't run it. I just don't know :-(
Too many years with stupid windows :-(

[pjhutch]

1. Create an icon of type disk, save it in S:, then add the following line in S:user-startup:
  copy ramdisk.info ram:disk.info

2. Birdie

3. On Misc tab, tell it to create a log file and it will write down which CDROM id device to use for Cd0 device.

4. Did you set your AHI preferences up for your Paula sound chip?

5. Enable BSDSocket.library emulation on Misc tab. Install a web browser e.g. IBrowse (see http://www.ibrowse-dev.net) :-)

1) I did this.
Make new drawer called ramdisk in S and change icon to the PowerIcon png, then add the above line to user startup.
Result - File couldn't be load.
I change name of the png icon to ramdisk.info result as above.
I change the png icon name to ramdisk.icon modified the startup and file couldn't be load.
I did sth wrong but I don't know what.
Can someone with PowerIcons tell me step by step what to do to change this damn icon...
2) I still have problem to get GUI in VisualPrefs. It looks like it is opening but no GUI. I'm opening the VisualPrefs from the Hd catalog.
3) Not yet checked :-D
4) I changed this prefs to Paula but I still get the Info - Couldn't open AHI device V4!
5) Working. Browsing in Amiga right now :-D
Btw how to change font size in IBrowse? Cause it is so tiny...

[misio]

OK I found GUI lol. Ehh too many years on PC...
Anyway I changed the look to Virgola one but still have problems loading the birdie image to the window.

As You can see there is only image under the letters...
Here is what I've got in the startup

C:AddDataTypes REFRESH QUIET
Run > NIL: "Hd:VisualPrefs"
C:IPrefs
Run >NIL: C:Birdie C:window_enabled C:window_disabled activepattern nobitmaps PUBSCREENS
C:ConClip

I checked 10 times if the window_enabled & window_disabled are in the C folder...

Any ideas ?
