WHDLoad problems with mediator
« on: February 22, 2004, 12:35:37 AM »
okay anybody have a solution for this.
this was brought to my attention by a customer and I have tested it myself.

If I have voodoo int in the mediator set to Yes 95% of whdload programs won't work.

if I turn off Voodooint then whdload programs will work but then some Amiga apps start to get glacial in screen redraws.
Anybody have a solution on whdload settings neccessary for the mediator to properly work with whdload. without turning off voodooint.

Thanks for your help.

well if you go to prefs/envarc/mediator/voodooint change it to No then all will work.

I am just looking for a better way. or the proper way I should say

I know arexx not a problem but it looks like I have to reboot the Amiga after changing the envarc setting changing env doesnt cut it.

I was hoping it was something I could change in Whdload since i am not to familiar with it.

yea with Voodoint set to No it does have some funky reaction with certain software even on the 060 based Amigas. Screen redraws get massively slow.
I have to dive into the code to figure out why and make a workaround. Busy and I don't have time right now.
But thanks for the help Lempkee. Its what I figured I just was hoping for a more elegant solution.

It took me several days to figure out that voodint was the problem.

BTW folks mediator settings are case sensitive
Yes = Yes but yes = No in the voodint setting that one will mess with your head big time.

thanks for your help
