LisaEm 1.2.7-RC4 support bug reports
D.Finni:
I found crashes. I'm running Intel 10.5.8. There is a text file attached to this forum post with details of the crash.
Also the status line at bottom of window has a tendency to show multiple messages concatenated together.
rayarachelian:
Interesting, James Denton reported the same kind of thing against 10.15: crash and concated status messages - turned out to be an issue with the XCode version in my VM. He was on 10.15.6, I was on a 10.15.0 in the VM with an older XCode toolchain.
I'm upgrading to wx3.0.5, and where possible 3.1.4 for the next RC3, so that might help. I'll give it a test on 10.5.8 before I publish it.

Unfortunately since debug wasn't compiled in, the crash report is almost worthless. Almost, however there is a clue that it has to do something with the config file. As a work around you might try renaming the config file - both the main one and the Lisa specific one config and trying it again, there's a clean-lisaem-prefs-macosx.sh script under scripts which will delete them, but renaming them will allow you to recover if that doesn't fix it. Alternatively, you can try:
--- Code: ---cd lisaem-1.2.7
./build.sh clean build --debug --tracelog
--- End code ---
And see what errors/messages turn up before the crash.
Or just wait a few days for RC3 :) Speaking of, I redid the video refreshes again, previously it was relative to the CPU speed, so if you picked 60Hz, and were at 5MHz CPU speed, it would refresh as needed upto 60Hz. Now it's relative to the host clock. There's new two checkboxes under the Display Menu, now, one to force repaints whether it's needed or not and another to disable the mouse scaling.
I might remove the force-repaint one, not sure if it's really useful, it certainly will eat a lot of host CPU cycles, which may also limit the maximum 68k CPU speed.
I've also added back the video refresh rate meter in the status bar. The "D" next to it indicates vidram was dirty on the last pass, but the rate is no longer the actual number of refreshes/second, but the attempted refreshes, so if you say 60Hz, it'll be close to 60Hz and vary +/- some timing delta based on how busy the machine is and whatever else is going on.
There's a new default preference that checks the PPI of the display as a proxy for testing hidpi/retina displays, if it's less than 200 and on GTK, it disables mouse scaling, which should fix the other issue Tom reported, of the mouse being way off, but it might be useful elsewhere. However, if you switch between hidpi and lower res displays, the setting will stick to whatever was saved in preferences...
I'm working in parallel on x/profile disk image support, so if you've taken a disk image of an X/ProFile CF card with dd you should be able to use it with a future LisaEm, but it won't be ready for RC3, though it'll likely be in the release 1.2.7.

Yeah, I thought this might be something to do with my old config file from version 1.2.6. I will wait for RC3.
The screenshot I posted is a separate problem. That dialog box won't go away even if I click OK. I had to force quit the application.
I had the mouse problem that Tom reported too.

Is this on 10.5.8 or elsewhere?
