hmm a bit odd that crashing

config:~config is only called when you exit dosbox (or an error occured that makes dosbox exit)

zgcc on which gcc is that based ?

Is DOSBox able to run in 480*640 mode instead of 640*480 ?

It's gcc 2.95.2 and dosbox-0.62
The line 'if not defined(WIN32)' changed to 'if !defined(WIN32)' works in cdrom_image.cpp. I'm wondering if the fstream include I added is futzing things up. Without it the compile complains about std::ifstream in cdrom.h. Get 'cdrom.h:194: `::string' undeclared (first use here)' without sstream. Looks like the include files are a little lacking in the zgcc package, c++ limits missing.

The '480x640' I think is typical for landscape mode vs. portait mode. A bit confusing, but I believe 640x480 is what it calls portrait. Trying to launch dosbox in portrait mode I get 'QLinuxFbScreen::connect() disp spec Transformed:Rot270:Vga:0 != server disp spec Transformed:Rot0:Vga:0'

I actually wrote that part of the code, you are telling about and it is only used when you mount a cue/bin image, so I don't think that here is the problem. The limits header is only used when the sdl_sound library is installed, so if it still compiles if you comment it out, there is no problem. Adding fstream to cdrom.h shouldn't make any problems, I just thought that it is already contained in iostream and therefore left it out.

I have found the root cause of this problem.The class name Config is conflcted with Qtopia related internal class definition.
It is the class Config that made the problem, I just changed the class name to Config_, which ease the program and will make it run. But I still have some other problems.

well it's a start.
Maybe we can help with the other problems

Don't why the system() call cannot return. 🙁 It seems the problem is SDL related.

I have solved the problem, it was caused by the compilation problem, the SDL library used the system unsupported recursive mutex. I add one compile option and solved the problem.

But new problems appear:
After dosbox appear,the screen will blink all the time. Shows the Z:>, then the cursor is moving fast, it looks like it is scroll the screen due to the keyboard input, but in fact, I inputted nothing and nothing can stop it from doing so. 🙁
Any idea? Thanks

hmm that is a familiar bug.
Somebody on IRC had this as well.
We were never able to solve it.

(from memory)
Keys got read allright. Moved to the keyboard buffer. But int 16 got the wrong data and continiously reported a key ready.

Thanks. Any solutions to this problem or more details?
😀

I found the arm version never called the INT16_Handler even it calls the CALLBACK_RunRealInt(0x16)
