| 3939.1 | Try poking at the hardware.... | FENRYS::mwm | Mike (Selling Real Amigas) Meyer | Thu Jul 19 1990 21:45 | 6 |
| I've seen at least one utility that will go out and extract that information
from devices on the bus. Possibly it's built into ARTM or Xoper. I'll try
and remember to look tonight, and see what I can find (though I can't
check the 2091 for you, as I don't have one...).

| 3939.2 | ARTM? | STAR::SLACK | | Fri Jul 20 1990 00:11 | 5 |
| re .1
I didn't see anything obvious in the docs for xoper 2.0;
what is ARTM?

| Try the following program from tape::user2:[upload]SHOWCARDS.LZH;1.
I believe it lists the appropriate information for every expansion
card in your machine.

| 3939.4 | Usenet | READ::POMEROY | | Fri Jul 20 1990 11:38 | 10 |
| If that doesn't work, can you read/write on USENET. I left a message
here yesterday, and also (through VNews) on comp.sys.amiga and
comp.sys.amiga.tech on USENET. I had three replies from people at
Commodore when I came in this morning. Peter Cherna and Dave Haynie
help people out all the time in those confs.

| 3939.5 | looking good | STAR::SLACK | | Fri Jul 20 1990 12:10 | 12 |
| I downloaded Showcards and ran it this AM on both my A1000 and the
A2000. Itseems to put out just the right data, even in the right
format. It seems to have properly mapped the card but I didn't have
time to really test it. Will do it tonite.
Of course, a reply from Dave Haynie would really be welcome. Anyone
know hoe I can get those usenet replies (I've been off the net for
awhile and forget the drill).
Many thanks to all.

| 3939.6 | ARTM >> Xoper... | FENRYS::mwm | Mike (Selling Real Amigas) Meyer | Fri Jul 20 1990 17:50 | 9 |
| ARTM is the Amiga Real Time Monitor. Does the same kinds of things as Xoper,
only ever so much more so. I prefer it.
You can find it on fish disk 327.
And "showcards" was the tool I was thinking about. Glad someone else knew
where to find it.

| 3939.7 | oh boy, another goody! | AJAX::SLACK | | Fri Jul 20 1990 18:26 | 4 |
| ARTM sounds worth checking out .
Thanx again.

| 3939.8 | I found ARTM guru'd to often. | MEO78B::MANDERSON | Photographers do it in dark rooms | Sat Jul 21 1990 02:38 | 9 |
| I have stopped using ARTM as my system was consistantly crashing! It was
more common when I would use the [mount] gadget, and a few others.
I even tried removing the 68010 and retrying the 68000 - no change.
Anybody else have this problem.
regards

| 3939.9 | ARTM(bugs)>>Xoper(bugs) ;-) | FROCKY::BALZER | Christian Balzer DTN:785-1029 | Mon Jul 23 1990 06:38 | 9 |
| Re: .6, .8
Yup, ARTM _looks_ nicer than Xoper, but is definitivly more buggy than
Xoper. While the latest Xoper still has a bug or two, I learned to
avoid the problem areas. But I found ARTM to crash on me even when I
wasn't activly using it.
And what can I tell ya, Xoper even works under 2.0...

| I like XOPER for that same reason - ARTM always crashes on me!
I like the %cpu time display in Xoper as well...

| 3939.11 | ARTM worked fine for me.. | FENRYS::mwm | Mike (Selling Real Amigas) Meyer | Mon Jul 23 1990 17:20 | 7 |
| Even under 2.0, though there are a few things you can do that'll crash the
system in that case.
Of course, I only run it when chasing problems, and not as a regular fixture
of the system.

| re:.10
Speaking of %CPU time display, take a look at the numbers which Virus X
4.0 chews up! A few of us told Steve about it, to no avail. He pretty
much said that it was Xoper's miscalculation. I don't think so...
