I were wondering if I could use Phase 5 060 lib on an Apollo 060 card ?

Would this cause an unstable system ?
I wonder because the apollo libs are quite old .. ..

I don't think, you can use the Phase 5 library with the Apollo card, but I'm not absolutely sure. I got an Apollo myself, that I'm about to do some test with. I've had some stability problems earlier, but I think, it was the power supply. I will try the different libraries, so maybe we can help each other to get the Apollo to work probably without stability problems.

One of the goals with my Apollo 060/66 board, is to get the Lapsuus demo to run without problems every time. As it is now, the demo will run to end some times, but at most the graphics freeze some way into the demo. The music continues. The Lapsuus demo can be found here:

Lapsuus

@Geomol

I will try to run the lapsuus demo on my machine and see how it works and come back to you.

The '060 libraries included with the MMULib distribution (an Aminet) work fine with the Apollo boards. It may be worth trying them.

Thanks, I will try these lib's and see if there are any difference.

If I'm not mistaken, I used those P5 libs with my Apollo 060 without any problems...

A little offtopic, I use the P5 040 libs on my A3640 and they work fine. So just try the libs you want (make sure to back up the old ones) and see if they work.

I've been doing some testing with my Apollo 060 card for the last couple of days. I've found, that the system is much more stable, if I turn Storebuffers in the CPU off:
cpu60 NSB
Turning Branch Cache off may also help:
cpu60 NBC

I run AmigaOS 3.9 with BoingBag2 on that Amiga. I also found, that the Lapsuus demo runs better, but it still freezes sometimes.

@lompa,

Yes, they are the latest. An 060 is an 060. I use them on my GVP Tekmagic 2060 and they work just fine, the GVP ones are really old. This was the advice of Mike, no, Kevin @ AmigaU.

i have no idea why so many out there wants "new versions" of everything , most new sw for amiga is made by less experienced people or is hacks .......

but i do agree 060 libs are important!!!

cheers
