uQLx for ARM error

[programandala.net]

I just tried uQLx for ARM (http://www.dilwyn.me.uk/emu/) in the Raspberry Pi on Raspbian, but the only effect is the error above, no matter the command (qm, qjs...). The same happened in the Raspberry Pi 1 some months ago.

Any clue?

Any clue?

No. Does it work now? Did someone help you?

Recently I fired up uQLx on my Raspi (Original Model B) several times. It works fine with the known restrictions. But now I discovered a problem. The web browser Lynx which works fine under QPC2 and Q-emuLator does not load web pages. I use exactly the same QXL.WIN file with exact the same condiguration. The web browser on the Raspian side loads web pages, ergo the internet connection is ok. Is there something specific needed which one should take aware of? Anyone?

Urs,

I must admit that the TCP/IP emulation in uqlx/ARM is completely untested.

Is there a way/a command to start uQLx with 1024x768 resolution? qxxx gives 800x600 (only).

Yep. You can change the ${HOME}/.uqlxrc file. That holds the resolutions for the qx[x] commands.
qxxx's screen size would be controlled by the "SIZE_3" configuration parameter. You can apparently go ashigh as 4096x4096....

You might also want to adjust your RPI's native resolution to a similar value to get the QL screen to really "fill your display". Small QL windows on a large HDMI display look a bit ridiculous....
A tutorial on how to do that can be found here

Thanks for the information Tobias.

With this QL/E now works nicely in its favourised screen resolution.

In addition I did give the QL some fair amount of memory (8MB).

Changes done in .uqlxrc using leafpad (TextEditor):
RAMTOP = 8192
SIZE_3 = 1024x768

Would be nice to see TCP/IP running in uQLx-ARM and to have a new "DOUBLE-SIZE" feature (4-for-1 pixel) similar than in SMSQmulator.

QL forever!

I did impliment that, wonder if I still have the patch around.
