VICE disk drive "device not present" for XVIC
Posted: Wed Feb 22, 2017 5:02 am
Hello all,
Xvic on VICE2.4.25 isn't talking to the 1541 emulator. Does someone have a suggestion how to fix this?
After a harddisk crash I'm re-installing VICE on Ubuntu, following the steps of carefully looking up and placing ROM-images and such things, treating xvic, x64 and x128 in the same way.
X64 and x128 play nice with the emulated floppy, but xvic gives device not present.
To illustrate, what shows when I do
$ xvic file.d64
and
$ x64 file.d64
:
The C64 shows 'Drive 8' in the lower bar of its window, the VIC20 does not.
The drive rom error for vic also shows up for c64 a little higher in the output but does not affect c64 functioning.
I got VICE through the Synaptic installer and hand-added the roms to the respective dirs in /usr/lib/vice, the same way I did for my pre-crash installation when it all worked.
It keeps surprising me how apparently the same steps lead to different outcomes whenever I try to install software.,.
