Giving WinUAE a spin (again) and...

[B00tDisk]

I can't seem to get HDTools to "see" the HD File I created in WinUAE.  The volume shows up as a NDOS: icon on Workbench (OS 3.1), but it doesn't show up in HDTools for me to format.

What gives?

TIA!

It has been a LOOOOOOOONG while - what's the methodology of doing that (and thanks you in advance)!

As for myself, "just for the hell of it"

Moving right along, what's a good browser I can try for a bit on UAE?  I downloaded Aweb but the Installer doesn't seem to work.  Hm.

As for web browsing, IBrowse is nice, in 1/2 hour chunks (the price is a bit steep for me).  I like AWeb 3.5, it's free, still at beta stage, but mostly works (just have to hit reload sometimes).  I havn't used Voyager yet.

I've installed AWeb, but when I try to launch it I get an error message that says "Can't open gadgets/button.gadget".  I've installed (or at least I think I've installed) ClassAct, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Can't wait to try the browser, can you help me track down the problem here?

AWeb is designed to run on OS3.5/3.9, it looks for Reaction fist, then Classact, so maybe it's not picking that up - does it say anything about that in the documentation?

(the PL version of AWeb 3.4 gave me similar errors when I didn't have Classact installed, ideally you shouldn't need it on 3.5/3.9 at all)

I think I have ClassAct installed.  The file I d/led from Aminet seemed to bet the right one.  I have to have Reaction, as well?

Hum,
Have a look in Classes -> Gadgets->  BUTTON.GADGET

And see if it`s there!
(Also you can check the version number ,in it`s tooltypes,  while your there)

It is not.  No button.gadget anywhere to be found.

Now what?

Reaction is built into OS 3.5 and 3.9 ... you don't need both, AWeb 3.5 just looks for one then t'other ...

I don't think your Classact installation worked, which file did you download? (note 'classaction' is a file manager, not the same thing).

It was, as I recall, "ClassAct2Demo.LHA" from aminet.

Current_Classes.lha here!


[Check the version numbers and if you see a newer version just rename the old one and copy...]

BTW have you tried Ibrowse yet?

Heh, that URL is as dead as a doornail, as is www.finale-dev.com !  :-?

No Ibrowse yet; if I can get Aweb working I'll go with that.  Thus far it's lookin' pretty grim!  (Now I'm starting to recall what drove me nuts (in a bad way) about the Amiga way back when..."Got this lib?  Got that class?  MUI installed?" AAAAAAARGH.)

oh well, just copy this directly into your winuae classes drawer then:

(right click, save as `all files`, txt file...)

Nope.  Still returning the "can't open gadgets/button.gadget" error.

Works here, what are you downloading it with?

Right-click "save as" in WinXP...

EDIT: Maybe the "save as txt file" gaffe was what got me.  Tonight when I'm done boarding up the ol' hacienda, I'll give it a go, providing there's power.  I loathe hurricanes...
