Hi all,
After years of being a Magic user I finally took the plunge and installed the latest Easymint package (the lure of a new web browser and Ethernat proved to much) on my CT60 Falcon and frankly it's just doing my nut in at the moment! The install was fine and easier than I was expecting; however using Mint/Xaaes/Teradesk themselves is a bit of a culture shock and I'd appreciate some help. Problems I'm having are..
I have problems renaming things (especially in the auto folder).
There's an annoying flashing 'cursor' block in the top corner of the screen left on screen which I have to change resolution to get rid of.
Where do I put FVDI to run it, it crashes in the autofolder or ends up in a corrupted screen (I take it NVDI doesn't work?).
Because of the above the desktop is as slow as toffee, which is horrifying as it makes the un-NVDI-ed GEM desktop look like a speed demon. Should it really be this slow?
Lots of my programs don't run, ST Zip being a highly irritating casualty (not even the ttp program functions), how am I meant to unzip anything? Is that Bzip ttp program for normal zips?
On my LNX partition there are a load of folders with files in, most of which mean nothing to me, can I just shift these into a folder somewhere out the way?
Why are most of the programs TTP BTW? are there any GEM style shells for any of them?
I can't access the larger (+1 gig) partitions on my SCSI hard drive (HD Driver 7 PC compatible formatted), Mint complains of the sector size being to small. The partitions worked fine under magic.
Sorry this isn't meant to sound like Mint bashing (I really am trying to like it honest!), it's just a bit hardcore compared to GEM, MultiTOS or Magic! ;-)
I'm sure these are just silly things and someone will be able to point out my mistakes, but at the moment I'm missing my Magic/Jinnee/NVDI setup a bit. The last time I used Mint was on my Milan, in a basic Mint/NAES setup, which I eventually abandoned because it was too slow, half in German and was less compatible than Magic Milan.
My current setup consists of a CT60 falcon with plenty of ram, HD Driver 7, Mint040, Xaaes and Teradesk. At the moment nothing else is on there.. due to the zip and hard drive issues.
