Bvision problems
« on: November 19, 2007, 09:59:01 AM »
I just finished installing OS3.9 and then decided to install Bvision drivers from the disc (didn't tuouch the settings at installation just went with default options). After driver installation my system halts always at the GybergraphX screen.

Any suggestions?

Does it matter where I add this and should WarpOS be installed?

CGX 4 installer doesn't say that it supports Bvision...

BTW I have updated my PPC firmware to this http://phase5.a1k.org/files/FlashUpdates-26042002.lha

FlashUpdates for BlizzardPPC 040/060, CSPPC and CSMK3
Last *private* release with OpenPCI 2.2 support      

44.71      26.04.2002

Any problems with this update, should I go back using Flash-300399.lha?

Here is from start to finish what I have done.

Installed WB3.1 (using 2GB CF card as HD)
Installed support for PCMCIA-CF adapter
Installed OS3.9 from PCMCIA-CF to the 2GB CF card that I'm using as HD (I just did the upgrade, I didn't install additional PPC support and others that are available on the CD)
Installed Bvision driver from http://phase5.a1k.org/files/bvisionsystemdisk.lha

After reboot my system always crashes at the CGFX logo oddly now it doesn't even show the logo anymore tough I can't remember wheter the logo stopped showing after I updated my PPC firmware from Flash-300399.lha to http://phase5.a1k.org/files/FlashUpdates-26042002.lha

THNX for the replies... I actually already downgraded the firmware and got the CGFX logo back showing :) Then I hooked up my TV and realised how stupid my problem was :) I'm actually a little embarassed. It was still after driver installation displaying AGA modes and all I had to do was to go to prefs and change the screen to bvision modes... Still kind of odd that installation it self didn't do that or didn't even give me output in RTG. BTW is there any way to to display aga modes trough Bvision?

I actually have the CGFX 4 disc, but since I don't have a CD drive in my Amiga I guess I have to get virtualcd working and create an image out of CGFX4 disc...

There seems to be still a lot of open guestion for me as I haven't been able to run any PPC applications etc.

Well atleast I have gotten some AGA 060 demos working :)

Ok since I'm a total newbie to PPC stuff on Amiga and TBH I don't remember much from the days I had my last Amiga. I'm gonna shoot with some guestions.

In what order should I install AOS39?

Should I do the following

Install AOS39
Install PPC support (WarpOS) from AOS39 or should I leave the system to use ppc.library
Install latest CGFX 4
Install Boing Bag 1
Install Boing Bag 2

What are the methods to run PPC programs and does WarpOS have to be installed in order to run them?
