hi guys how do i get genesis working after installing the mui version ???
genesis prefs doesnt work and it cant find the right info from my network.
i have miami installed but its the demo after 30 min offline ####. i want it to be 24/7 online like my pc are

I might write a short step-by-step guide when I get home.

Hi!

Do you have SnoopDos running? (You there can see whats wrong) Its in the Pack 1 from the Morphzone download section.

Usually the files"Grouppager.mcc" and "Term.mcc"
won't be there, just extract them from the genesisdemo.lha and copy them to: Libs/Mui
Only the two, otherwise Voyager won't work.

After that the Prefs Programm should work.

I think DHCP does not work so you have to enter the values by hand. Do you have a (dsl) router?

Hello klapdeur,

Do you own a copy of OS3.9?
In that case it's simply installing the internet-stuff from the OS3.9 cd.
After this just copy the genesis MUI demo into the same dir as the installed OS3.9 Genesis.

I heard in other threads the main difference is the Genesis key that's installed by OS3.9, it's some kind of library-file.

But doing it as described above is the most quickest way to get Genesis working (I did it several times this way)

One important note for Genesis installation...

At least here it coused lots of problems if I set TCP buffer sizes to 64k, but all problems disappeared, when I lowered both to 32768 bytes.

@tmhg

If you can do the guide via screenshot and asssociated blurbs, I can easily host them here.

Like this:

etc

whel i tried the os3.9 version and after installing that one ive installed the mui version but the prefs arent working yet

Hmm,

If you look in the Genesis-directory you'll see two versions of Genesis and two versions of GenesisPrefs.
One is installed from the OS3.9 CD and the other one is the MUI demo version. Perhaps you started the OS3.9 version.

The MUI version is called:
Genesis
GenesisPrefs

Spidey

OK did you try my way of solving the problem

@Klapdeur

I installed Genesis yesterday because I was tired of the 30 minute
limitation of MiamiDX.

This is what I did:

Install the Genesis demo from aminet. Copy the files
'mui/libs/mui/grouppager.mcc' and 'mui/libs/mui/term.mcc' to
'morphos:libs/mui'.
After that copy the 'genesiskey.library' file from the genesis version
on the OS3.9 cd to 'morphos:libs'.

Reboot and start GenesisWizard.

Hi Toto,

Genesis Wizard works?

With me everytime I got problems with it.

@spidey

Yeah, it worked for me, I configuered Genesis with the wizard, the
only thing I had to do to get it running: disable modem in
GenesisPrefs and use a static ip, gateway and netmask. I also edited
the host file to get SMBFS working but somehow networking is very
sloooow, accessing directory's on my windows box takes forever

well i got genesis online right now but my smaba network is not right
my peggy sees my 2 pc but my pcs cant get in my peggy and it works
under miami how can resolve this prob???

Hello klapdeur,

Good you got it online now

The additional problem I had after configuring the Genesis prefs, was that I had to fill in the computernames and their IP-adresses in the Database -> Host section.

After this I had no problems anymore.

Spidey

hi spidey i also have done that i filled al the data in as same in
miami was standing only prob is that my pc can see the peg but cant
acces it anymore and with miami it can. thats the prob right now

Hi klapdeur,

This is wha tI did (several times):

- Exactly filled in the same pref setting as described in the Samba guide.
- Filled in Datbase->Hosts the IP adress, Name and Aliases of all computers in my network
- In Interface setting->Resolv I filled in the name of the workgroup (network name). Same ofcourse as the pc's have as workgroup name.
- Setup the pcguest option

This should suffice for the pc's to see your peg.

What shares did you make for your Peg?
Did you fill in the correct workgroup name and disabled the Local Master option into your Samba config?

Bye,

Spidey

Today I also installed Samba and Tango. Everything works fine and I can acces my windows/linux shares and copy files to/from my Pegasos.
But when I want to copy files from Windows to my Pegasos I get the following error in Windows XP: Disk is full!! ???

Does anybody know a solution?

Hello Toto,

How's copying from WindowsXP to Linux?
What's the share on your Pegasos?
Is it the Ram:-drive or a directory on your harddrive?

Bye,

Spidey

Hi Spidey

I have all my partitions shared in MorphOS and tried to copy from
Windows to ram: and hdx: with the same results. When I copy from Linux
on my laptop to MorphOS everything works and pretty fast too :D

It's not a big problem because most of the time I use Linux on my
laptop but it would be nice if it gets solved :D

Hello Toto,

In the nearby past I did read something about WindowsXP here on MorphZone.
Perhaps something to do with the network interface of WindowsXP?
I'm sorry not to be able to help you out with this one.

Bye,

Spidey

Hi Spidey

That's no problem. Thanks anyway.

----------------------------------

Yet another problem:

I'm using Tango and when I copy file's from a mounted windows drive
my peg freezes. It also happens with SMBFS. This is very
anoying. Is there a solution?

I'm using Genesis / Samba / Tango. BTW this problem also occured when
I used MiamiDX and SMBFS.

I've solved my network problems today. My Peg freezed when I tried to acces files on my windows box on my network. I booted my peg with the ramdebug option (wich I never used) and now it works great, no more lockups

btw what's the ramdebug option for?

The Debugoutput is going into an RAM area instead to SER:

ok, thanks..
