Hi,
I compiled VICE 1.19 on a Linux-Ubuntu (Breezy 5.10) System.
The compilation was successful, I ran "./configure" with options "use
gnome" and "enable full screen".
The problems are the following:
- I don't see a gnome-style GUI ('bout menus and dialog boxes)
- I'm not able to switch to full-screen mode
- More important, Full-drive emulation doesn't work, as C64 programs on
D64 images that use some fastload routine don't run. They ran correctly
under WinVICE.
Can someone help me?
Thanks in advance,
Francesco.

That's not the exact syntax for those flags.

You can add the applicatins manually.

I think you have to run it as root. That used to be the case when I
used to run it full screen.

I've never had a problem with true drive emulation. One thing I have
noticed is that with .tap files, I have to exit and reload x64 to get
them to run.

The exact syntax I used is the following (perhaps the webnews client
will split the line):
../configure --enable-gnomeui --includedir=/usr/include/gnome-1.0
--prefix=/opt/vice --enable-fullscreen
> You can add the applicatins manually.
I meant that I don't see gnome's the look and feel, but perhaps it's
because VICE uses gnome1.0 yet, while I use gnome2.

I tried, but I was not be able to.
What is the key combination and/or the command line option for the
fullscreen mode? I looked for it, but I didn't it!

Try with this:
http://www.sblendorio.bbk.com/commoplh.d64
try with LOAD"*",8,1
It asks you to press a key (in Italian), and then it should load a menu
with a backgroud music. Under WinVICE it works, my compiled VICE on
Ubuntu doesn't.
Moreover, when I try to start "monitor" (through VICE menu), VICE hangs
up and kills itself.
Can u help me?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Francesco.

This means the binary will end up somewhere like `/opt/vice/bin/`. Are
you sure you start the correct binary and not the old one?
Ciao,

As i've compiled VICE 1.19 myself on Mac OS X (haven't tried compiling
with Gnome or fullscreen yet though), i've decided to try this disk
image and see what happens.
The first file "commodisk" is an autoloader which loads "!wrng" and runs
it. This is a Basic file which displays a text, which i guess displays a
warning that you should disable your cartridge.
After pressing a key, the screen clears but nothing happens.
Run-Stop/Restore brings back a ready prompt, so i tried to load "$" but
i get a "?device not present error".
Further examination leads to line 320 of the Basic file "!wrng":
320 OPEN 4,4,7:CLOSE4 : ....
According to my reference guide, this opens the printer on file# 4 with
the mode "Upper/Lower Case" and closes it.
These two exact commands (either on the same line or on seperate lines)
appear to stop the True Drive Emulation from working. After that, you
get a "?device not present error" on all emulated drives, apparantly.
After turning off True Drive Emulation, loading something, and turning
it on again, the drive emulation will work again (turning it off and on
won't).
Turning on the 'IEC printer #4 enable IEC device" option to have printer
#4 present makes no difference.
The commands "open 4,4" and "close 4" do not stop True Drive Emulation
from working though.
All in all, it seems to be a bug with using the optional ",7" to switch
to Upper/Lower Case mode when opening IEC device 4 or 5.

On my system, this does not happen, i just get the monitor in the
terminal window.

Not with the VICE Gnome, fullscreen and crashing monitor issues, sorry.
As for "Commodisk 27", just load "!ldmn", clear the screen, and run it :-)
Kind regards,
Danny.
