You're right, CUE files with audio tracks are not supported in this version because of missing SDL_audio library (which is not ported AFAIK).

If you really want the feature I can have a look at it, but I'd suggest doing what Addison says.

Heya Javis!

I'm having a little trouble getting nokia.sys properly placed and loaded in Dosbox upon initial startup.

It's currently on my internal flash at
/home/user/apps/nokia.sys --> right next to the DOSBox preferences file.

So what command would I type at the end of the [autoexec] portion in the DOSBox 0.73 Preferences.txt file to get this working?

Thanks!

It used to be bundled, but now that RubyBox is in extras, I can't depend on it anymore since xkbd has no source available and therefore can't enter extras.

If you can, do it by adding the following under [dos] section:
This way you can use Linux paths, and there's no need to add "keyb" to autoexec.bat .

Okay. I think I'm seeing what the slight problem is here with getting the N800's hardware keys working correctly.

Hey ukki, when you have two minutes, can you upload the mapper.txt on your site to make it available for download next to Pushwall's mapper?

Thanks ahead big chief.

Eh? Stop confusing me The Nokia.sys file is only useful for N810, with FN and Chr keys.

I thought the nokia.sys was for all hardware keys for both tablet models.

Well, if it makes you feel any better, I consider myself yelled at.

For those of you who would like to have the N800 hardware keys active and functional, ukki just uploaded his mapper file for them.

You can find it under his download feature in Rubybox and they work perfectly!

Hey javis!

Just one simple request in case you ever update Dosbox again.

When it's not in full screen mode, all I can see is "DOSBox - OE" in the upper left hand window, before it used to show the cycle speed.

It was a very nice feature to have previously.

For example, Death Gate required an exact cycle speed of 875 with a frame skip of 4 to make the voice acting perfect with no studdering.

It's hard to know what speed I'm at while testing if I can't see this value.

It's no biggie. And if you can't get to this, that's perfectly fine.

Cheers.

Hey there, does anyone know if dosbox is supposed to crash if I change core to dynamic? I can't tell if this was ever integrated. I found a link to here: http://vogons.zetafleet.com/viewtopic.php?t=19193

Which seems to suggest some work was being done for the ARM dynamic core. Will this be integrated into dosbox ever?

Also, a quick search couldn't find this answer: what are the buttons I press for scaling CPU/frameskip up or down? I have the n810 with the keyboard and would rather not use some crazy keyboard overlay app to achieve this.

And last but not least, does anyone have just a very general dosbox conf lying around? I know basic stuff but I always figured that part of the hard part of making a conf file is that everyone's box is differet, which isn't the case of the nokia. What's a good cpu cycle and frameskip speed? What's a good trick to keep the sound from skipping and slowing down the game? I can't seem to get rubybox to download any saved config files.
