Hi all,
i'm trying to find a small script named:
Switch2Which.lha util/misc 8K To switch between the PPC kernels
I've just installed WOS 5.1 with the ppcemul but ProStationAudio requires PowerUP (not emulated), to work correctly.
A friend of mine, says that with those script, you can chose at the startup, which PPC kernel to use.
Someone has tryed it?
Thanks a lot
Cheers
PS- Switch2Which.lha is present in Aminet-31 in util/misc
-
no one can help me?
-
I don't have a PPC and I don't play one on TV!
; )
I found this though:
http://www.nc-mag.de/mags/nc65/cd_aminet31a.html
so it looks like it should be on the Aminet 31 CD if you can find one for sale.
It doesn't seem to exist on any of the Aminet mirrors that I checked so it must have been removed.

I've tried myself in the past to run .elf executables under PUP emulation, but I failed (the CLI returns an error message "the file is not executable", even if it has the rwed attributes :-?).
As for the utility, I have no idea... (couldn't find it on AmiNet (http://wuarchive.wustl.edu/pub/aminet/), and its a complete mirror I think).

IIRC, the problem is in the way that the ppc.library is terminated by warpos. I found many ppc programs would not execute directly - whatever load code they have is adversely affected.
However, try using a program called 'runelf' to launch powerup code under warpos ppclibemu emulation. I found it mostly works here fine (tried with various ppc.library programs).

Hi Ppl!
I've tried myself in the past to run .elf executables under PUP emulation, but I failed (the CLI returns an error message "the file is not executable", even if it has the rwed attributes ).
OK.. Seen this one before. If you have the ppclib emu in LIBS: and named ppc.library you will have to load it into memory. You will find all the info you need about how to do this in the readme file found in the latest ppclib emu archive which you can get from here: http://devnull.owl.de/~frank/ppcemu.html
Have fun!

Hi Cass,
you should install the ppcemul library, in LIBS: and launch the ppclibemu_install (in userSS) to make the ppc.library (emulation) resident in memory with the ELFLoadseg-Patch.
My problem is an another one: ProStationAudio works correctly, only with PowerUp (not emulated).
I've contacted Audiolabs today, and he has confirmad that due a bug of the WOS data caching, Willie has introduced a workaround through the CHIP ram !!!!
so . . . no realtime with PSA, under PUP emulation .-(

I have e CSPPC (not sure if it needs the BPPCFix), and i have the following libs installed in my LIBS: dir
-ppc.library 46.37 ( 3-Dec-2001)
Emulation v0.9 by Frank Wille
-powerpc.library 16.1 ( 7-Feb-2001)
I think it has to do with the terimination...:-?

Hi cass
the same libs here but you MUST run the "ppclibemu_install
" program (present in the ppclibemu archive).
ciao
PS- and with CSPPC,
Terminator=OFF
NoPatch
in WOS Prefs
BTW . . .is there someone, that own AminetCD-31?
In util/misc, there is:
Switch2Which.lha util/misc 8K To switch between the PPC kernels

I just did a reinstallation of the program (http://wuarchive.wustl.edu/pub/aminet/util/libs/ppclibemu.lha) using its installer script, but nothing changed: the .elf files cannot be run.
10.Workbench3.9:> "Ram Disk:tests/portlistsPPC.elf"
Ram Disk:tests/portlistsPPC.elf: file is not executable
10.Workbench3.9:> why
Last command failed because : file is not executable
10.Workbench3.9:> list "Ram Disk:tests/portlistsPPC.elf"

hi Cass,
you can't run a .elf in that way.
In tha Tests dir, there are the laucher as well.
"Ram Disk:tests/objattr_demo" "Ram Disk:tests/timerobj.elf"

Hi all,
finally i've found on Aminet31, Switch2Which.lha
The problem is that it is for Blizzards with BlizKick.
I've tryed to contact the author
Henes/Tasker (aka SALLIN Nicolas) HenesTSK@iName.com
but the address doesn't exists no more.
Someone knows this guy?
It is a very useful archive but doesn't works on CSPPC and should be easy to modify it . . . . as the author claims in the docs:
"Sorry, I have droped the support for the CyberstormPPC users. If you have added it, please contact me. Thanx.."
Cheers

Just to repeat myself :-)
Try "runelf". I find that it seems to get many ppc.library programs working under my warpos / ppclibemu installation fine.
Eg
runelf somepupprogam args
Works fine here 99% of the time.

@ Karlos
I think you're right once again ;-) It has to be forced to run in PUP the .elf file. Although if you have the newest ppc.library plus LoadSegPatch installed (the emulation ppc.library, that is), you may run any ELF module directly from the Shell.
I searched the CSPPC CD, and didn't find any runelf command (doesn't exists in my c:). Is there any link where I can download it?
Sorry Framiga, I don't know the guy, but you may try this address:
Nicolas Sallin (henes_nospam@morphos.de) ;-)

That's a damn good question. You know, to be honest, it's been kicking around my system for so long I don't know how I come about having it. It maybe even came with a devkit?
I remember it was largely uneeded after early versions of powerup (as you say) where the loadseg was fixed, but I found it was a handy way of kickstarting the emulation.
What I found was that normally, if I try to run a pup program, even with the loadseg stuff in the emulation it failed with the "not executable" error.
So out of curiosity I tried to run the pup with runelf under the emulation and it worked.
Later I found that runelf itself was sufficient to get the emulation going, that is I do a "runelf >nil:" in my user startup. This silently fails because it doesn't run an elf file (none given) but it activates the emulated ppc.library and after that I found most ppc.library stuff just runs from shell as usual.
You could try searching aminet for it, I honestly can't remember when/where I got it from, but it has been a long time :-D
-edit-
You know, thinking about it, a simple thing would be to write a small 680x0 program that does OpenLibrary("ppc.library", 0) and then doesn't close it on exit. That would probably achieve the same result ;-)
