Hi guys i am back with a working A1 have a drive with my old OS4 on it with fastfile system
another drive with OS4.1 running on SFS the fast file sysyem runs nice and quick but the other is slow loading copying etc also the wb is sluggish any ideas?
the OS4 is fast all round

@poweramiga
which drive do you boot from?

i boot either by taking one out so its one drive only at a time

Whats the best file system to be using ?

@poweramiga

SFS2 right now

If you have to take out a hd to be able to boot. I suspect you have same boot priority or same name on boot devices on both hds. Check it out in mediatoolbox.

How are the drives connected? On the builtin IDE, an SiI0680 IDE PCI card, or a SATA card?

Either way, you can have both drives connected and select one via the boot priority, as mentioned above. Or, if they are on two different interfaces (e.g. one on builtin IDE, the other on 0680, or one IDE and one SATA), you can select which to boot in UBoot.

Best regards,

Niels

were 3d drivers ever written for the 9800pro/256m for the A1 ?
or do i have put the 9000/64m back in it ?
Also i have 2gig of ram running in my A1 working without issues :)

@poweramiga

No, I don't believe the 9800 model will work.

You lucky ...

I was never able to use more than 512MB on my XE

If you get it to work flawlessly even when the 512MB barrier has been breached i salute you

btw...welcome back to the madhouse

Picasso96 crashes everytime i try to set a gfx card in 4.1 the windows are slow like slow motion what could that be ?

@poweramiga

The graphics card should be automatically selected.

You should just be going into screenmode prefs and selecting your resolution.

...you shouldn't ever need to fiddle with Picasso96.

Could you post your moitor tooltypes?

@poweramiga

You haven't said if your gfx card comes up in Prefs/Screenmodes, yet?
If it doesn't, you can try to put the line

DDCMODE=All

in the tooltypes, reboot and see what happens.

I don't know why the windows would be "sluggish", i hope your card isn't dying.

Have you tried to switch to the 9000 and cross-check?

unfortunately both my 9000 cards have failed only have the 9800 left running :( ill give the DDCMODE a go later

@Raziel
it shows up in screenmode prefs fine just very slow while trying to move windows around in 4.1 only if booted into os4 it is super responsive
i think ill just wait till 4.1 final comes then try again

Do you have composition enabled?

@Antique
where do i find that ?
