    About features, I remembre that : Bochs emulates only a VGA card in 640X480 16 colors. This is very very poor. On this resolution, you cant do a lot of things.
    Bochs is very unstable on my pegasos and it is not fast. I can say it is slowwwwwwwww.
    If you dont use mouse, but only keyboard with shortcuts, it can be usable, but if you use mouse it's the hell !

    I know Stability and speed depends a lot on the settigns, but I tryed with some settings files from a lot of good people using bochs and the best speed I gave is slowwwwwwwww.

    Question : Is the last bochs evolution capable to emulate a bigger graphic card?

    Bochs has an SDL-backend. I haven't tried the MorphOS port yet but I assume that is what it is using in which case the MorphOS port would support the same features it does on Linux, including VESA.

    Hi!
    I would test RealPC if I knew where to get it from....
    Is it freeware or commercial? If commercial, is there
    a demo-version somewhere to test?

    Did anybody try the newest MOl 0.69-20031019 ?
    I have some trouble with my linux at the moment
    (tried to update X and several other important progs
    by hand, as I still don't have internet at home....)
    The newest version supports ALSA and generic SCSI
    CD/DVD ....
    Would be great to have to play some more games...
    And maybe it doesn't trouble with AGP-cards and/or
    VirtualPC....
    bye

    Hi!
    I almost successfully installed the newest MOL 0.9.69 20031019:
    SCSI works so many new games are theoretically
    playable.
    Theoretically as the fullscreenmode in Classic OS
    is almost "medidating" :)
    OSX runs quiet good (but I anyway don't use it...)
    In window mode Classic runs fine with scsi-support
    and VirtualPC exited MOL with some mouse error...
    Maybe there's the problem....
    (I'll try a PS2 mouse...)
    bye

    Hi Frostwork,

    I'm very happy with this last news from your post. Finaly OSX works on MOl with PEGXlin.

    Could you explaine how did you do to upgrade MOL step by step please?

    Thank you very much for advance.

    Hi, serge!
    OSX runs with the preinstalled MOL0.9.69, too!
    You only need a PCI-graphics-card (here Voodoo3)
    I downloaded the latest archives (mol, mol-drivers-macos, mol-drivers-macosx, mol-drivers-linux, mol-modules-source) from debian.
    Don't know exact link, but try searching google
    "debian main pool mol 20031019" and get the files
    Installation shouldn't be a problem.
    the modules-source tries to find the kernel-sources on a different place than installed, just only softlink it with "ln -s"
    I think fullscreenmode doesn't work with Classic here, as the mol-drivers-macos need the mol-drivers-linux, which I couldn't find in the latest version....(?)
    Good luck for now!
    bye
