The very best I can get on SPARC

Ok, I think I didn't make myself clear enough...

Let me try again.

I'm using qemu (0.6 and cvs) in a fedora core 2 box.
I installed win2k professional so I could use some exclusive programs in 
windows.

But when I try to install mdac or ms net framework, I get access 
violations and installation can't proceed.

ya, I did that.  Just took the hacksaw to it.  I similarly hacked up a 
few other places.  I guess I'll just hack it until it compiles, then 
I'll worry about making it clean.  Anyway, it gets somewhat further now, 
but stops at the following...

gmake[1]: *** [op.h] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/dave/build/qemu-0.6.0/i386-softmmu'
---------------------------------------------------------------

This one actually does have me stumped.  I don't really see how this is 
a NetBSD issue.  So...any hints?
thnx,

Re: getting access violation when installing mdac or .net framework on win2k

Maybe the apps you are trying to use require MMX, SSE(, SSE2, 3DNow) cpu 
support.
As far as I know neither mmx nor sse is implemented yet.

I get similar Errors when using a Englisch course dvd-rom made by 
Digital Publishing.
The video tutor and some other functionality are not present at all and 
everytime I access the learning window I get access violations.
The behaviour is always the same - the guest m$-win version doesn't 
matter (95.0/98SE/XP).

I believe even DirectX strongly depends on MMX.

Best regards,
Martin Bochnig

Of course: Implement MMX ;)

Hi Martin.

Thanks for reply.

If this is the problem, I don't know if the program tries to use mmx or 
other instructions sets, does this mean I'm out of luck for while? At 
least until these support is added to qemu?

Or is there some thing I could use in qemu to workaround?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Re: port to netbsd

I get exactly the same errors when trying to compile for SPARC64 (both 
Linux and Solaris10).
Giving up.

For SPARC32 it helped to use gcc 2.95 or 2.96 instead of gcc3.1/2/3x
Curiously enough gcc3.4.1 didn't show this error.
Install gcc2.9x into a separate location and try again.
While you will get many more warnings and errors, it may help to fix 
that damn (hopeless) './dyngen -o op.h op.o' bugs.

Re: Re: port to netbsd

Do you have at least binutils 2.13?

*IF* MMX or SSE is the problem: No.
Could you find a workaround when trying to run these apps on a hardware 
i80486 ?

Maybe on could write "SoftMMX for Windows" or the like.
I don't think there is something like that.

Let's hope, that Fabrice or any other hacker will implement MMX as 
extension of qemu.
One could get ideas from the Bochs project which already has MMX, 
SSE1|2, X86-64 support.

:)

I was having another thing in mind...
something like:

qemu -dontthrowaccessexceptions [options]

;)

As my knowledge about that doesn't allow me to implement MMX support, I 
will wait for some good soul to implement it.

Thanks.
