Which desktop are you using?stormy wrote:Same here... memory protection has never worked on my TT or my Falcon. Apps like Atari IRC would crash, Taskbar, Falcamp... random.
I hit the same issue last year with my Falcon. What you saw with Bigdos making disappear the problem is because it depends where the kernel is loaded in memory the issue arises or not, this made me think about a hardware problem but I tested changing the RAM module and the hang persisted, so it looks like there is something wrong with the kernel's 030 MMU code, even more now that someone else is able to replicate the problem.Gaiyan wrote:New kernel fixed the MP problem on my TT with 256MB. But I'm having weird hangs on newer kernels. Right after the "Installing BIOS Keyboard Table blah blah" or something like that.
Oddly, by random co-incidence, I noticed that if bigdos was accidentally left on from my TOS boot-set, it didn't hang.

Just letting you know I just replicated this issue by accident, I had wdialog.prg in my AUTO before mint and decided to take it out, mint would then hang on bios keyboard table, I put wdialog.prg back and mint worked again...mikro wrote:See also David's report here: https://github.com/freemint/freemint/is ... -421922818Galvez wrote:I hit the same issue last year with my Falcon.

For me, I could replicate this on my CT2 (which has, same as Gaiyan, a 030 + TT RAM) but this Falcon is unfortunately disassembled for a few months now (shame on me). So that makes at least three of us who can replicate this odd issue.

Only to inform you that the problem quoted above has been just fixed in MiNT's kernel.stormy wrote:Just letting you know I just replicated this issue by accident, I had wdialog.prg in my AUTO before mint and decided to take it out, mint would then hang on bios keyboard table, I put wdialog.prg back and mint worked again...mikro wrote:See also David's report here: https://github.com/freemint/freemint/is ... -421922818Galvez wrote: I hit the same issue last year with my Falcon.
