Linux Port

There is a installer script for RPi5 too. That one does not require Qemu and thus will run at full RPi5 speed.

I might add some more info on the limitations and work-arounds.

Does the new Pinebook pro A53 have a 32bit mode?

Interestingly, though in general everything seems very fast, the one application that’s noticeably slower, at least in redrawing, is ArtWorks

Running ArtWorks with RISC OS linux using Qemu emulation is a lot slower compared to running it natively on a RPi 5.

You can speed up window redraws by using opengl,

RISC_OS__GUI=Built/opengl ./run_RISC_OS >/dev/null

Thanks both, I’ve not been able to try on my Pi5 yet – will give it a go, but having it running on a laptop is great.

Is there a version of Aemulor that works? – I tried the one for RPCEmu, which doesn’t, but I’m not really sure which’d be the right one.

There is an installer script for RPi5 too.

Thanks for that, the Linux port is now running on the RPi5.

I did find one tiny snag however. Alarm was configured to run at startup but a side affect of this was that the HardDisc4 TinyDir disappeared from the icon bar. The AddTinyDir command is added to the end of the Choices.Boot.Desktop file by the installer script, but after the last |End marker. This gets lost when the Configuration tool rewrites the Desktop file.

The TinyDir can be reinstated from a TaskWindow.

A better idea is to the put the AddTinyDir command in an Obey file in Tasks. (As I recall Timothy’s installation did something of the sort.)

HTH. Thanks again for the script, it does simplify things.
