MUI trouble (The Bar, Nlist, TextEditor)
« on: February 22, 2008, 09:27:12 AM »
Hi

 I keep updated many MUI MCC classes on my 3 main Amiga. During the last 6 months I had occasionaly noticed some instability on one of them, which is an A1200+030/50. Yesterday I discovered a possible cause, i.e. a reproducible bug: I start the MUI prefs program and whenever I access (by clicking on the list) to the preferences of "The Bar" or "TextEditor" or "NListtree" I get a guru $800000B.
Using a backup, I restored the versions of these classes I had on July, and they have no problem.
On the other hand, the newest versions of the classes give no problem on my other 2 main system (4000/040 and 4000T/060). I even tried to copy the whole MUI: directory from the A4000 to the A1200: the crash is still there (this says that the problem is not caused by some corrupted files in MUI:).

Software wise the 3 system are similar: OS 3.9 BB2 with no strange pathches.
What could be wrong on the A1200 ??

it's always worse!!
Today I installed YAM 2.5. As soon as it starts, a GURU $8000000B appears.
This happens even if I replaced The Bar, Nlist and TextEditor with old versions which don't produce the guru. So the Yam GURU does not come from a GURU in these MCC.

It seems there is a generic problem with MUI applications. Any idea??

@BAmiga2002

 already tried this, same problem with different simms! 10x for the suggestion!

@itix

I was also thinking of some problem with 030 but... is it possible that nobody has noticed it yet? Yam 2.5 is out from almost 2 month, and betas were there since years...

is 030/50 not used anymore??

I tried to SnoopDos the system, but didn't get a clue.
SnoopDos produces the same log as in the 4000s. All the libraries that the MUI prefs program tries to load are there, except powerpc.library, cybergraphics (I don't have neither PPC nor gfx card) openurl and screennotify.library. The same libraries are also missing from the 4000s, but no problem there.

Then I re-installed MUI and ONLY MCC The Bar.
Version 21.4 is ok. Version 21.5 does again the System Error $8000000B. Now I really suspect there is something wrong with    the latest versions of YAM and the 3 MCC. Is there anyone using YAM 2.5 on a 68030 with a similar config as me (OS 3.9, no gfx card, 32M fast)??
