Efika + MOS 2.1 = Awesome!
« on: September 14, 2008, 02:38:46 PM »
Hey Folks,

I got MorphOS 2.1 running on my Ekika yesterday. I looks like they fixed all the stability issues! I've been running all day with no crashes at all, Its pretty awesome. I havent tried the sound out yet though.

Couple of questions:

Whats a good dock/startbar program for MorphOS? I suprised that it doesnt come with one.

Has anyone figured out how to use graphic card memory as regular Ram yet? :-D  Its funny that my 9250 has the same amount of ram as the Efika.

Hey, Thanks for the replies.

I've got panels now. I dont think I ever would have found that without asking!

I just tried the sound out. Its a pretty weak signal. I might have to hook it to a pre-amp or booster of some kind. I'm also getting noise from the harddrive as well. It sounds just like the noise I used to get when I had my A1200 hooked up to a Hi-fi.

I guess that makes it a pretty real Amiga experience :lol:

Whoa, that was scary! Piru was almost wrong! :lol:

Seriously though, It would be cool to have the option to use graphic memory even if it was slow.

Say you were working on a larger type project on a Efika and you ran out of memory and couldnt continue? It would be nice to use the extra graphic memory to finish up?

I know you probably wouldnt be doing anything heavy duty on one but you never know?
