46.0. "Fish disk help?" by APOLLO::BERKSON () Tue Jun 10 1986 11:42

    
        I have been trying to look at the slide show on one of the fish
    disks (#17 I think). The instructions say to type:
    
       1> /dpslide/dpslide dpslide
    
    but when I do this, it just keeps printing error message #205. I
    tried other variations of the CLI command also, but to no avail.
    Has anyone looked at the slides and could tell me how? Thanks.

re:	.0

Are you sure he doesn't mean:

       1> :dpslide/dpslide dpslide

Since ":" is root not "/" ("/" means go up one directory like a UNIX "..")
Also, I have a slide show that gets invoked by doing:

	1> cd :dpslide
	1> dpslide show

... he may be using the same syntax.

(These are only guesses since I don't have the Fish disks (yet))

46.2Problems with fish #7.GVADG1::PERTOSOThu Aug 07 1986 10:5619
Hello, 

I have a copy of the fish disk # 7 ( Hack game ),seems to be nice but any time 
I want to load the game or a character the program crashes and gives me 
the famous SOFTWARE ERROR, task held ... 

Then the GURU MEDITATION error code is 0000000B.xxxxxxxx ( I don't 
remember the address).

Does anyone know the reason of this problem ? 
					
Marco.


BTW : I also have some problems to reset my Amiga. Sometimes when I press
    CTRL and both Amiga keys nothing happens. First the power indicator
    light flashes fast and then slowly.

    I've noticed that you can't always reset the machine with the Ctrl
    A A technique when the system has crashed.  I think that this is
    becuase the machine is still in mid crash, and doesn't recognize
    keyboard input.  Give it a few more seconds to 'sort things out'
    and you should be able to reset.  Of course you could always power
    down and up for a cold restart.

    Help,

    I was "forced" to change my password on 'TOOK' a few days ago.
    Could someone help me?
