contact Jan Venema regarding the Linux version of QLay.
Does anyone have an up to date email address for him? Please send it to me
privately and I’ll forward it on.

Hi,
I tried to run SMSQmulator on my 2Ghz, single CPU laptop, under M$Vista.
It started up first time and has not crashed, great so far.
But I find it VERY slow, much slower than a standard QL, even QPC1 on my
i486/25Mhz laptop is faster.
It's so slow you can see lines being drawn and paper

That's a pretty generic Linux error message and not enough for any
person to determine what the cause is.

What the error really means is that the file QLAY (which he is tying to
execute) is not in the current directory. Without knowing what the
current directory is, how could anyone know if this is an real error or
not. Maybe he's in /home/bob and needs to be in /home/bob/qlay? Maybe

Hi all,
SMSQmulator, the SMSQ/E machine emulator under Java is now out.
Just tried it, seems to be 5.5 times faster than my old SGC on a PhenomII
X4 965.

On my MacBook, it's (hard to tell) about half speed of QPC2 and way
fast enough.
How do other java apps behave on your PC?

It can't be that the puzzle takes only 19 secs to start on a
raspberry, but that the boot should take 20 minutes on yours.

Hi Tim,
I see what you mean, I understood the problem to be that qlay was running. My
mistake.
Cheers,

I just downloaded QLAY and tried it on my Lubuntu 12.4 system. I'm

I made sure that the file was executable, so I did a 'chmod 777 QLAY'.
When I did './QLAY', I got the same no sure file or directory. The

Hi,
I apologise for the confusion. the 19 seconds is to draw the puzzle
from pressing 1. To boot SMSQmulator on the 256MB Raspberry Pi is
something around six minutes.
No you didn't get it wrong, that's exactly what I understood.
I just didn't have the figure for the boot time, but inferred

This changed the boot up time to 4.5 minutes from just over 6 minutes.
Sadly it is still at 100 CPU all the time.

Equally, I bet there is a huge amount of work being done under the covers by
the emulated MC680xx processor.

Hi,
This is correct. On all systems that I have rum SMSQmulator, it really
sucks up the CPU time. There is an option to have it take up less CPU
time when the cursor is blinking.
Even when running 100% CPU, I've found the other applications are not
greatly impacted and are fairly responsive.
