hello

there is a annoying bug in the screen handling with UQLX 2018(a)
it only manifests if zoom is to 2 eg ./qm -z 2

when using pointer programs like QPC2 Files and QD
the cursor jumps to the middle of the upper left corner

the versions 2012 and 2017 are ok
but the sources of 2017 are no longer on github

any solutions ?

A further update of uQLx emulator for Linux systems is now available to 
download from the Emulators page on my website at 
http://www.dilwyn.me.uk/emu/index.html#uQLx_for_Linux_etc.. This is version 
2018a.


In cases of difficulty remember it is also available from the backup site at 
Greybeardz.com http://www.greybeardz.com/emu/index.html#uQLx_for_Linux_etc.


The zip file includes 32-bit and 64-bit binaries, plus a uQLx manual as a 
PDF file, and a short README file detailing the changes made by Timothy 
Swenson.


Please remember that this is an UPDATE package only, so the original 
'uQLx2017' remains on the page.


Thanks to Graeme Gregory for the original 2017 port and to Timothy Swenson 
for being ready to produce this update.

Hi Peter,

When you say the TCP/IP socket interface is mirrored in an emulator, is 
that full range of TCP/IP ports.


This would make life easier for porting over existing Internet software.

The demonstration of the TCP/IP at the QLis30 in Edinburgh, is the 
TCP/IP stack the full implementation?

Thanks Peter. I was working very much in the dark with these documents. I 
knew full well that the QL community would be quick to point out any errors 
(human nature, people are always quicker to point out errors than do 
anything themselves) - probably the best way of ensuring correct 
documentation on the QL scene I have found!


The correction will filter its way into my articles, just bear what Peter 
says in mind until then.


Thanks, Peter.

[Ql-Users] uQLx and TCP/IP stack documentation

2017-03-05 Thread Dilwyn Jones
I've created a new page in the Documents part of my website, dedicated to 
information about the TCP/IP stack included with emulators such as QPC2, uQLx, 
SMSQmulator and QemuLator.

Personally, I found it hard to come across the information and examples of how 
to use the facilities from QL BASIC, so after a frustrating few days when I 
just couldn't find the information to get even the most basic example working, 
I decided to do something about it myself.

The documents include Richard Zidlicky and Jonathan Hudson's original pages 
about uQLx (now that Graeme Gregory is pushing ahead with the 2017 update of 
uQLx for Linux/ARM systems I realised the documentation might be welcome) and 
the TCP/IP stack originally implemented on uQLx.

I've included a document of mine showing how to use the TCP/IP stack from BASIC 
to download html pages and read email headers, for example. The document 
includes example BASIC listings.

There are also links to documents and software from Martin Head, including to 
his IPbasic software package designed to simplify and enhance the use of the 
networking facilities, plus a glossary of networking terminology.

I hope this helps generate some interest in the use of the facilities the 
emulator authors worked so hard to bring us, yet so few people seem to have 
used.

Hi Graeme,

I commented the AUTO_BOOT and the BOOT_SELECT Q_F1 option out and 
recompiled.


UQLX booted up the correct Minerva Screen, but when I selected F3 for 
the Second Screen no cursor in Channel #0. Using F4, no Cursor and a 
little screen corruption.


Can the AUTO_BOOT be a command line option or defined in the config file.

The point might be 32 bit, not so much how recent. In 2013 there were

[Ql-Users] uQLx on Linux (various HW platforms, various Linux distributions)

2016-06-16 Thread Urs Koenig (QL)
Hi QLers,

the only three Linux machines I own are my NAS, a SubNotebook and my
Raspberry Pi. While the NAS has its job to do, the SubNotebook gets dust on
a shelf, the Raspi gets at least fired up whenever I want to test a new
version of QL/E.

At work the situation is completely different, at least at the moment. We
are ramping up some new point-of-sales computers (3 series with the
following platforms: BayTrail, Haswell, Skylake) and are making sure the
retail applications work smoothly under both Windows and Linux. While the
Windows world is easy for me, Linux is still a bit of a mystery. Don't get
me wrong, installing a Linux distribution is most of the time trouble-free,
installing professional packages such as Java or device drivers for receipt
printers, barcode scanners, etc. is also easy and works most of the time. My
personal Unix/Linux know-how is somehow limited, but I'm save on the
desktops and with graphical dialogs plus I know some basic shell commands
and the purpose of some folders.

Installing and running SMSQmulator under Linux is trouble-free, I just unzip
the QL/E distribution and start it using the shell command "java -jar
entire_path_to_jar_file".

But even I wrote the step-by-step installation guide for uQLx ARM for the
Raspberry Pi, I constantly fail to install and run uQLx on Intel based Linux
systems. IIRC the last time I succeeded was about 12 years ago at a Swiss QL
workshop where Jon Dent and Markus Dettwiler were giving me a helping hand.

A year ago John was wrote to me:

> Have you seen

End of 2013 Peter Graf sent me a work-in-progress version of uQLx with
QL_BDI support (uqlx-src-peter-17-11-2013.zip). He stated that this works on
his (then) recent Debian 32-bit.

 

Is it only me or is it true that all the old uQLx distributions plus the two
above are not able to be installed and run on recent Linux systems (modern
HW platforms, recent 32-bit or 64-bit Linux distributions). I one says one
or the other uQLx distribution works could he or she provide an
understandable and working step-by-step guide.

No, the code is correct and does work (would be somewhat silly if a
central piece like this didn't work on PCs, the platform most people
use for uQLx). Check the RW macro definiton.

I have some slightly modified code, and have included my working notes 
below, a few tips though, use a version 3.x of the gcc compiler thats the only 
way i get non segfaulting binaries, before u compile export/setenv (depending 
on your shell) CC="gcc-3.x.x -m32", most versions of linux i know still 
support some version of the 3.x compiler. The "-m32" flag is also a must I 
cannot get a stable 64bit binary. My compiled qm, qltools and qxltool all work 
perfectly compiled as 32bit binaries under my gcc3.3.6 on my Mandriva 2010.2 
64bit OS. I included a tarball of the source i use but it was too big for the

It should be possible to install a version of Linux with UQLX on an USB stick  
so it either starts up with an icon so UQLX starts in Minerva with a 
reasonable size screen or boots up directly in that form.

For ease of use the TK2 toolkit should be patched so that you can Lrespr at

QT would be a good choice for the higher level as would GTK (Qt though

I'm wondering if cygz11-6.dll is in a developer version or in in an 
archived file which has to be user-expanded after download or something?


Actually, the mailing list archive shows a message from Stephen Meech on 
this list back in 2004 with this exact problem. If Stephen is still on 
the list, can you let me know how you resolved the problem? It looks like 
it won't be possible to use Win-UQLX until this issue is resolved...or 
somebody can tell me where I went wrong.


Nope, sorry, never did.

In fact if you look back two months I posted messages when I tried again, 
within Linux itself and failed with even more difficult problems. Looks 
like my only choice now is to try running a Windows based emulator within 
Wine.

I only went by what google threw up when I searched for cygz11-6.dll

The closest I got was to install the whole lot of Cygwin. All 3GB of it, 
about 182,000 files.


Using that (I thought I may as well use it as I'd only got it by making a 
mistake with the installer) I got as far as getting a uQLx-win startup for a 
couple of seconds before it just vanished.


At that point I gave up. And spent ages uninstalling the whole lot. So much 
for uninstall, it left nearly 2,000 files and didn't remove entries from the 
start menu.


I think I'll stick to QPC2...At least Marcel made Windows easy for us ;-)

You'll need the Cygwin distribution to provide the Linux-like
environment: www.cygwin.com
Be careful, it can be a huge download of 50MB with 6,478 files to
install as I found to my cost...oh to know what I'm doing with Linux

Downloading everything by the sound of it!


...

Ok, Cygwin as far as I remember gives you the opportunity to do a
download only and to save the files in a given location. That is the
best option. It doesn't install anything.
It creates a multitude of entries in the START menu, which the installer 
doesn't uninstall.


The "Uninstaller" leave about 1,900 files on your system.

Do a full download (which I managed to do by mistake overnight - clicking on 
'Default' 'Install' 'Reinstall' and 'Uninstall' in the installer is so 
sluggish it's gone many times round each option) it installed the whole lot 
overnight instead of uninstalling it (OK, my fault, I should have 
checked...).


Bit of an eye opener realising it installed 3.31 GB of files, including 
182,779 separate files (I promise I am not exagerating...). More to the 
point, Phoebus lists 6 essential files. Only 5 of these were in the COMPLETE 
installation, cygZ11-6.dll is not there and googling this file finds it come 
up time and time again as a problem, but interestingly nobody ever mentions 
a solution, they just tell you to "reinstall".


I'm wondering if cygz11-6.dll is in a developer version or in in an archived 
file which has to be user-expanded after download or something?

won't be possible to use Win-UQLX until this issue is resolved...or somebody 
can tell me where I went wrong. Actually, very interestingly, after 
realising I'd accidentally downloaded the whole lot I had a go at starting a 
cygwin bash shell and oops it failed with a message about a missing font. 
Dear oh dear oh dear...




I'm assuming you have downloaded everything under the sun as you have so
many files to delete (simply go into the C drive and delete (shift
delete) the cygwin directory - that's about the easiest way to delete it.)
I tried the official uninstall until I realised that it had left about 1900 
files on the hard disk. Then shift-delete got rid of the rest.



You should have only selected the "stuff you need" but that's half the
problem. Unless the UQLX files mention the bits of Cygwin that you need
- how do you know?

Just base and x-org (or x11).


Off the top of my head, you probably need the C and/or C++ development &
runtime files plus the base system and all of X (or XORG these days?).

You need the development stuff to compile UQLX and the X/XORG files to
run it in a graphical environment.

Didn't want to recompile it...just wanted to run the thing!

Ok, I'll try again!

Once downloaded, yo can then run the installer again and tell it (but it
should know) to do an install from a local repository. This way, if it
messes up, you simply uninstall and then run the installer again. You
don't need to be connected to the internet and if you are still on a
dial-up link, it doesn't have to download everything again.

That's how I used to do it years ago. I'd try it out at work and confirm
all this, but our system is well tied down and we can't even connect to
Cygwin these days - anything that hasn't been approved is unreachable.

Cheers,
Norman.

Should have said that if (unlike me) you alter the references in the Cygwin
installer to 'install' from 'default' to make sure you get the right bits 
of

cygwin (ain't these installers wonderful!) you end up with around 512MB of
files, with 36,201 files. Of those, you only need a minimal subset of 6
files...except cygz11-6.dll (listed as a requirement in the uqlx readme 
file

for Windows) is not one of them!

Back to the drawing board I think...Only 36,195 files to uninstall!

I've got as far as getting it to announce it's starting uQLx but at that
point it just vanishes.

I think it's because it expects cygz11-6.dll and the distro provides
cygx11-6.dll

So at that point I'm now stuck...until someone shows me where I'm going
wrong! (e.g. I ought to have downloaded the Beta version mentioned on the 
website but I don't want to risk downloading another 36,000 files!)

I found to my cost...oh to know what I'm doing with Linux and Cygwin  :-((


I never could get the previous versions of uQLx-Win32 working, and I can't 
get this one running either unless someone is kind enough to write a step by 
step guide for people like me with no knowledge of Linux (keeps complaining 
of missing .dll files).


Anyway, it's there for those brave enough to have a go, at 
http://www.dilwyn.me.uk/emu/index.html - you can download either a 
conventional zipped version or a smaller 7-zip version for people who use 
the free 7-zip utility.


Go on, give it a go, then you can tell me what I'm doing wrong...

Hi all,
just dropping a line to say that I found some time to fiddle with
uQLx-win32 and although I did not manage to recompile it with the newest
cygwin, I was however perfectly able to boot it properly (again TCP/IP
is not working but I guess after Richard releases the newest version of
the sources it should).

Anyway, in order to properly run it, you should disregard all the cygwin
files that are contained within the archive that is in circulation
(Dilwyn has that too I think). Install cygwin (all you need is base +
X.Org) -
Start a proper bash shell and give "startx".
Now go to your winuqlx directory and after you remove all the XWin
references from the uQLx.bat batch file you will only be left with :

SET DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0
start qm.exe -f .uqlxrc

Save it, run it and there you have it a window will appear within your
X-Windows session with uQLx running Minerva (if you have the standard
distribution)

Cheers,


Phoebus

P.S. Attached is a nice screenshot (kinda big I know but I am sick and

For the whole 10 people who want this, 3 if which are prepared to pay
for it? Sure, I'm right on it ;-)

Wine is getting better by the day, I'd say I just wait some more and
have Linux compatibility for free ;-)

Besides, one can see what happens on Linux. Many people don't seem to
be able to get uQLx to run, neither in source code nor in binary form!
Windows as a platform is bad enough as it is, I'm not longing for
another quagmire ;-)

I had the same problems, however I did manage to fix them (together with  
compilation in post 4.x FreeBSD). I will have to dig up my makefile and  
see what I did
