Re: Shoebill - a Macintosh II + A/UX emulator for OS X

You can build the SDL2 gui natively on OS X 10.7, that might be the easiest, most robust way to get things running. All you need is are the SDL2 dev libraries, and then you can run sdl-gui/osx_build.sh (provided you also have Xcode and the cli dev tools). You know what ? It works. I should have rea...

Re: Shoebill - a Macintosh II + A/UX emulator for OS X

Hey, I've made progress. Installing the most recent Linux Mint distribution, things appear far better. I've succeeded in launching shoebill (same command line than before). Only problem : no mouse cursor. It *seems* (I mean, I'm not sure) that the mouse cursor stays at the bottom-right corner and ne...

Re: Shoebill - a Macintosh II + A/UX emulator for OS X

Can you post the names of the A/UX images you've been trying, and the command you've been running? Off the top of my head, I don't think shoebill can just exit without printing some kind of error message. Thanks for your reply. I may have been unclear in my description, but when shoebill doesn't co...

Re: Shoebill - a Macintosh II + A/UX emulator for OS X

Hello everyone, the prospects of meeting Commando again are fading, it seems. First, I've tried to run shoebill under Linux (this Linux running in a VirtualBox VM, the host being Mac OS X 7 (Lion) with no success. I had to install SDL, and after that, nothing. I mean, I tried to boot with A/UX insta...

Re: Shoebill - a Macintosh II + A/UX emulator for OS X

Hello, I'm moved by the prospect of running A/UX again, but before taking the plunge (finding all the necessary bits, and one computer to run shoebill -mine runs under OSX 10.7) I have an anxious question : can somebody tell me if Commando works ? Commando is (was) a Mac GUI for Unix commands (grep,...
