Has anyone tried to use TMON 2.8.1 on a Mac IIcx ?? When chaning from a Mac II to a IIcx I have the following problems: - Putting TMON and TMON Startup into the system folder and rebooting constently results in a system error 12. - Starting TMON Startup using Finder: the screen blanks to the background pattern and the cursor freezes; only way out is to restart the Mac. - Starting TMON Startup using MultiFinder results in a dialog box with the following text: "TMON is unable to reserve memory for the Monitor. Restart the machine and try again, or try with TMON Startup." Here at least you can quit it without rebooting... If anyone knows about this problem (and hopefully the cure) I would be gratefull to know about it. regards - Erik Bertelsen UNI-C, The Danish Computing Centre for Research and Education.

The same problem occurs when trying to use TMON 2.8.1 on a IIx or SE/30. The reason is simple: these machines all have a 68030 processor, something TMON 2.8.1 wasn't prepared for. Fortunately, the cure is simple, too. Here's the "recipe" for patching version 2.8.1 --> 2.8.2: -- Use ResEdit to open a copy of the TMON application. -- Open the 'MonC' resource and click on the 'MonC ID=2' resource. -- Choose "Duplicate" from the Edit menu to make a copy of the resource. -- Select the new resource and renumber it to 3 (with "Get Info"). -- Close the 'MonC' resources, and repeat the above procedure with the 'MonI' ID=2 resource. This patch will only work on version 2.8.1. Usual warnings about being careful with ResEdit apply. -- ========== ....... ============================================= Ken McLeod :. .: UUCP: ...{spsd,zardoz,felix}!dhw68k!thecloud ========== :::.. ..::: INTERNET: thecloud@dhw68k.cts.com //// =============================================
