My amiga needs your help
« on: November 08, 2003, 03:52:22 PM »
Hi
I got my version of Duke nukem to run faster with the help of an amiga.org member in the post *duke3d speed* but now my next problem..
I had to update my mui.lib so i downloaded it from aminet and installed it with the various other software it includes,guradianangel,mui force and the rest..So after all seemed well i clicked on genesis to go on the net and to my horror it comes up saying,could not launch Amitcp kernel.
Possible causes:
1) Amitcp:kernel:/Amitcp does not exist.
2) Another Tcp stack is already running...

Someon please help me out here as im stuck without my amiga as im on a reamcast right now as i dont have another computer..
Thanks again...

most times this happens if any application initializes (or tries to initialize) the tcp stack BEFORE it is started.
possible solutions : do an avail flush (clears all unused libs from mem) and then start your tcp stack again.

if this doesn't work, get snoopdos from aminet and try to find out where and when this happens.

To run the avail flush.... just open a shell (CLI) and type 'avail flush' with no quotes.  Hit return, and it'll list you your ram, and you'll see some more free up.  

I tend to think that it's probably the problem shlva is describing.  Something is trying to use your TCP/IP before it's ready, and causing an error.  I've seen it before, as well.

this effect takes also place if you lauch an app (eg. telnet) w/o starting a tcp stack before.
