Propeller Tool v1.1 and wine

hinv

Hi,

Does anybody have this working. 1.0.5.5 seemed to work, but I didn't try the download. I just removed 1.0.5.5.and installed v1.1 and tried to run it under wine.
Has anybody gotten this to work?
I get the following, quite lengthy error message:

Any help would be appreciated as not having the tool available under linux has prevented me from doing a lot with the propeller in actual code.
Playing "air propeller" isn't nearly as fun.

Thanks,

I have not had any luck getting the Propeller Tool to work under plain Wine. CodeWeavers has a commercial version of Wine that includes a lot of DLLs and I have been able to get the Propeller Tool to mostly work under that (called CrossOver) with some errors.

hinv

Hi Mike,

Do you have PropTool v1.1 working with reliable downloads to propeller on CrossOver?
If so, what version of CrossOver? What version of Linux?

Thanks,
Doug

Mike Green

The only version of Crossover I tried was the one for the MacOS.
Downloads were the one thing I never got to work. I could compile
to a file and use the Python downloader separately.

Well now, mr sarcastic, what would you say a real computer is?
Is a q6600 quad core with 4GB memory, and 800GB of disk not a real computer?

Just what do you mean?

it doesn't matter if your computer is a 386 rellic, or something that can predict weather on Neptune,

a real computer can be easily defined·as it's usefulness to your task(s).

RinksCustoms,
I would agree with you, to a point, but unfortunately, my primary task is not prop programming. It is right now a hobby.
My home desktop computer(q6600 based) with SuSE 10.3 works great for browsing the web, email, compressing audio/video, legal document preparation, backup compression and cataloging, video playback, torrent server, etc, etc, etc.
It would make a great gaming machine, but I don't have time, and don't want to risk installing Windows again on it.
My notebook T350P with SuSE 10.2 is much less equipt to handle compresion, a/v, etc, but is very portable, and has plenty of power to handle proptool.
With most any task I give my computers, my primary concern is data security, which precludes me from running Microsoft anything. One of my latest runins with Microsoft Windows 2K, wiped out my partition table on my 750GB Hard Drive. It was only supposed to intall into a pre created 9GB partition, but instead wrote it's own partition table on the disk, and overwrote the beginning of a 700+GB encrypted partition. I lost a lot of data that day, and the blame rests squarely on the M$ Win2K Installer. That is not data security.

I would like to get proptool working on it so I can generate code and upload to the propeller. If you have any information that could help me, I would appreciate it.

Thanks,
Doug

lol, i feel your pain with Winjunk. I haven't had much luck with anything below XP Home/Pro, and they're a pain in the asteric. My polished stainless Antec full tower houses a 550W SLI PSU, ASROCK 4CORE-VSTA mobo, Pent-D, 2G DDRII, 2 Seagate 160's in RAID0. I have xp pro dual booted with Xubuntu 7.10, very nice UI and lean on proccesor usage, butcan't get wine working on it - chasing dependents all over.

if i come across anything usefull, i'll let you guys know.

If it is any help, windoof on vmware server (a free download I believe) on Linux works well for the proptool. It is not perfect, well it is winblows, you know what to expect, but you do not compromise your real OS. The USB support is not great but it works, it is better on the Mac, but well it is less painful than trying with wine. If you already have win2k give it a shot. Transfering files from/to linux is not that easy, but mounting a FAT disk using the offset option may not be new to you.

hinv

I have run VMWare for years, but I haven't done it since my license expired a couple of months ago. I didn't know it would expire when I bought it, so I wasn't very happy with that. If I get it running again without having to pay them any more money, I'll try PropTool on it, but Crossover Office seems like a better option. I really don't want to run windows, just proptool, and maybe quickbooks. I want to be able to copy and paste between applications, write files to my home directory, etc.

Thanks,
Doug

hinv

Hi Mike & all,

I have been trying to get crossover office to install the PropTool1.1 but I get the error
"1155: File Y:\INSTMSIA.EXE not found"
did you find some way around that?

Thanks,
Doug

hinv

Well, for those interested, I was able to get past that via cxbottlemanager to set up a new win2000 bottle. The default bottle is win98, and that just won't work.
Has anybody gotten downloading to demoboard from Crossover Office to work?

Thanks,
Doug

hinv

Well, now I want to revert back to PropTool 1.0.5.5 Does anybody know where I could get it?

Thanks,
Doug

stevenmess2004

Nope, PropTool 1.1 should work in a win2000 or winXP bottle. Downloading won't work though. Are you using the crossover installer program?

hinv

I did use the crossover installer program to install PropTool v1.1 and used a win2000 bottle, but the "Show Hex" when you push F8 doesn't actually show the hex. It is squeezed into 1 column. Are you getting the same thing?
Do you use the Python loader?

Mike Green

hinv,
I get the same "squooshed hex" display with PropTool 1.1 under CrossOver Mac with a Win2000 bottle.
I have used the Python downloader, but I normally use VMWare and Windows XP to run the PropTool.

stevenmess2004

Yep, the "Show Hex" doesn't work. Neither does the character map or the line numbers. Also, the object tree sometimes doesn't show up unless you hide and then show the side bar. There's actually a couple of python loaders. There is the standard one and another one that Mike modified to be easier to use on a mac. I've used both but I'm starting to use the standard one now because of its watch mode (it uploads a file whenever the file changes).
