[Coco] Installing Multi-Vue on a NitrOS9 VHD (CoCoSDC)

[Bill Pierce]

Tormod, I actually talked to you about it and you said to leave it alone unless it was put to group discussion. I don't know about now, but for years the 'Tickets" section of the repo was not publicly writable (which I also complained about), so comment were restricted to the "Discussions" page. I may have even mentioned it there and I know I've mentioned on this list more than once and probably the FB page as well.

If you're using a standard boot from the repo, someone replaced "cowin" with "cogrf" a few years ago and "cogrf" does not support MultiVue's menu system. If you have cogrf (or covdg for that matter) instead of cowin, MultiVue will not run (as well as some other software). I have complained about this several times but it's fell on deaf ears.Hi, was this filed in the bug tracker or discussed on the NitrOS-9development site www.nitros9.org ?Anyone who can chime in with the reason cowin was replaced by cogrf inthe boot images?Regards,Tormod> Cogrf is a simplified version of the windows driver that has only a few bare essentials, and one of things removed is the MultiVue support. Also, if you find you have "covdg", then that definitely does not support MultiVue.>> It's things like this that helps keep OS9 from being used by non-OS9 users... perpetuating the hostility of OS9 since 1987...>-- Coco mailing listCoco at maltedmedia.comhttps://pairlist5.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/coco
