Anyone try out Gemini yet? I run Gemini.prg after booting with either AMCGDOS or GPLUS and get two bombs...??? Anyone got it to work want to comment? I tried removing every auto prg and acc save amcgdos and shell0... No luck. Went through the configs... set it for drive C: still no luck. Damn, I really wanted it to work... Is it any good in a 1040 anyway? (Memory usage?) Thanks for any tips -- Greg

No luck. > I also got a bus error (2 bombs) on running Gemini. I ran it with the MonST 68000 debugger and found out it was accessing priviledged memory. I set it to supervisor mode and let it continue. It then announced that it doesn't work with TOS releases below 1.2 :-( I've had my STFM quite a while and, depending on what program I ask, I either have 1.08 or 1.00 (I think it's the former). Oh well... better go out and buy Rainbow TOS :-) (I wish I could afford it!)

Well, the first paragraph answered the problem I had. It requires TOS 1.2, 1.4, or 1.6. So if you have 1.0, thats probably your problem, like mine.

So if you have 1.0, thats probably your problem, like mine. This can't be the problem. Of course Gemini checks the TOS version and displays an error message on old roms. ___________________________ cut here _____________________________________ Julian F.

It displayed an alert-box "I only run on TOS 1.0 or newer" and afterwards it went back to the desktop. No bombs. Anyway, the posted version is out of date. It is 1.0 and I already got 1.1, which is much better...

I tried Gemini on two different ST's, one with the old ROMs, one with new ROMs. In the first case, I got just TWO BOMBS, but all was fine in the second case...

Could someone please post Gemini 1.1? If not, where can it be found? GEnie? What has been changed from version 1.0? So many questions, so little time. >Greetings, > RIPLEY > >-- >Greetings from RIPLEY | UUCP: ripley@tubopal.UUCP (ripley@opal.cs.tu-berlin.de) >Hans-Christian Eckert | ...!unido!tub!opal!ripley (Europe) >D-1000 Berlin 30 | ...!pyramid!tub!opal!ripley (World) >Regensburger Str. 2 | BITNET: ripley%tubopal@DB0TUI11.BITNET (saves $$$) Thanks, Craig / Craig Pratt / Montana State University, Bozeman MT / / Craig.Pratt@msu3.oscs.montana.edu / The ST-ranger in a strange land / /~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~/ / " There's a lot to be said for a blow to the head.
