Must Kill Poseidon!!!

[Jasper_K]

Hi guys,

anyone looking through the Hardware Issues section will see a post i made about certain PPC software not running on my A1200 040 PPC.

Well, I have found the problem, and it wasnt the multitude of patches running on my system - it was bloody Poseidon!!!

If I prevent Poseidon stack and PSD modules from running in my Startup Sequence everything runs fine.

I was warned by a few Amigans that Poseidon was evil, but thought they having "a go at me".

Anywho, this now leaves me with a (smaller) problem. Its a royal pain to have to keep editing my startup sequence everytime i want to run something, so I need a way to purge Poseidon from my system whilst in WB.

Is there a way to do this?

I have tried AddUSBHardware REMOVE ALL, but that doesnt work.

Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi there, thanks for the reply.

Well, I dont think I have ever had poseidon crash on me, but then I have been told that Poseidon conflicts with some other programs - WHDload is a main example.

Anyway, I have tried going offline in Trident, but that doesnt work. I think I actually have to remove the PSDModule from resident.

Noperz, its not WHDload, its PaybackWos, WarpHexen etc etc.

If I comment out Posiedon in startup they all work fine, if I allow PSDModules to be loaded they all fail, even if I click OFFLINE in Trident or run "addusbhardware REMOVE ALL" from cli

Payback shouldnt it, but Im not sure, All I know is that I need to find some way of disabling it.

Hi there.
Would you believe I have installed StartMeUp, which allows you to select which startup-sequence are use, and now PaybackWos has stopped working again..... this is weird.
