Mageia Linux FAIL!

Well, this is for the LOLs now...

I just installed for testing the Mageia 4.1 Xfce on the C710...
Everything ok, except the Mageia cannot detect the SOUND, yea there is no sound!

so....

rm -rf Mageia-4.1-dual-DVD.iso


UPDATE: as I read from their forums, this is a bug, say from 2009, well
I now can understand how shit is this distro ... 

MiST FPGA... more Amiga (Minimig core) that ST

In the case you are looking to get the MiST FPGA to replace your ancient ST you will dissapointed.

I had hopes that the ST core would be nice, but in fact is limited. Well, the midi addon is cool, I m not using it anyway.
I tried to play some demos, almost 0% success, as it seems the video chip is not impemented 100% there.
There are features like super monochrome monitor and STEroids (like Turbo STE), but again the inability to run Demos its a big minus for the ST core.

On the other hand , cores like Atari 800 and Minimig, are performing very well.

dyld: DYLD_ environment variables being ignored because main executable (/usr/bin/sudo) is setuid or setgid

You see that freaking message when you are going to do a "sudo".

In my case that was caused because I installed the xquartz (X11 server).

I managed to remove the xquartz  but the that freaking error appeared again and again..

Finally I removed the reference of that variable DYLD_.... that was into the:
/etc/profile

Problem solved!

MIST - Atari ST / Amiga fpga CLONE

Nice work there , I hope it will be a better project than the ill fated Commodore One (c-one)
For now is Amiga 500 and Atari ST, but the whole project looks very promising.  

7zip security hazard.

It seems there is a bug (still present on alpha v. 9.30 of 7zip).

When you open a password protected ,7z archive (it asks for the password, so far so good) then any time you add files (drag and drop) it does not encrypt with password these files.
This option works very well under the PeaZIP. Seems this program have ages to be updated..

Windows 8+10 and US keyboard layout (SDL bug).

I have to say I am pissed off, as some apps (see: fucking buggy SDL) adds the US keyboard layout.
Also, I just noticed, that some extensions of Firefox, add this layout too!

Well, I found a solution, in my case I m using the UK layout, so run the regedit then:

go to HKLM  > SYSTEM > CurrentControlSet > Control > Keyboard Layouts > 00000409

then edit the "Layout File" from KBDUS.DLL to KBDUK.DLL (or whatever is your preferable layout)
