It has been ported from the excellent X Window Unix emulator xtrs. Instead of using the X-Window system for graphics, it uses the portable SDL library. -A simple sdltrs.desktop file is included that will start sdltrs -with the default options. Read the included documentation after -installation for more information. +Note: When you start up sdltrs for the first time, it attempts to boot +from floppy disk. If you didn't give "-disk0 /path/to/image.dsk" +on the command line (or if you launched it from your desktop's +application menu), it will "hang" with a black screen. Press Alt+D to +enter the emulator's disk menu and either select a bootable floppy +image or disable the floppy disk controller, or else run sdltrs +with the -nofloppy option. See the man page and the documentation at +/usr/doc/sdltrs-1.2.27/html/index.html for further details. |
