Anyone know what fan I would be looking for to replace my now dead CPU
fan in my Pegasus II. Christoph Poelzl had alerted me to the tendency of
the fan to die which enabled me to catch it before the CPU fried, but I
need a new fan! I went looking over at newegg, and a few other places,
but the varieties are endless! I took the fan apart and cleaned it up,
but it is just to far gone. It will spin and catch, spin and catch.

Thanks in advance,

Deron

If You need new cooler for Pegasos, buy the same as for gfx card.
Diameter should be 40mm.

Yeah, rebuilding is kind of hoepless. I tried that with a
graphics card fan once. No luck.

Just to reinforce what Tomamsz wrote to you:

I'm not sure about how the PEG mobo is set up. But with the
removable CPU card on my A1, I mounted a graphics/Northbridge
chip, heatpipe/fan combo.

In my case, it's a Swiftech MCX159-CU. I
don't know if you'd be able to find that particular model
any more or not. But this one IS a 40mm fan, as Tomasz
suggested. My AmigaOne has been running reliably
for 6 years now, after using the original Sunon fan for only two
years.

Good luck with your repairs!

I went to the site and dl'd 5052 and 5053. I thought from
the description that 5053 was just update files. But when I
unpacked it, it looked like everything was in it.

I've tried replacing the files of 5052 with those in 5053.
I've also tried using 5053 alone.

Bottom line, whether I run it directly from a shell, or
change the icon info to raise stack size and start it from
shell, nothing happens. . . except the mouse freeze
somenone else got.

Is 5053 supposed to get mixed with 5052 to make it work?

OS 4.1 here, and 2GB RAM.

It won't really make 5053 "work," but it fails to do so much less
unpleasantly that 5052.

What you need is a UserPrefs drawer with PageStream5.prefs in it. You can
copy over from 5052; if you never got one set up there, the following,
edited properly would probably do the trick:

Hi,

Well I remember that I saw this error before (few years ago) but can't find
the solution... I have a yellow alert saying "Font softlogic.font is
defective at glyph 126, click to continue."

Thanks for your work...

Bye!

I had that too, as does Don Ferguson currently.

I'm not 100% sure, but I sort of remember curing that by getting rid of any
SoftLogikFont reference.

Well, no, I guess my memory is bad on that one. My regular PageStream5 still
has a SoftLogikFonts directory like PageStream4, although in PageStream5
they are .ttf fonts only, unike PgS4.

Meanwhile none of my versions of PgS5Pro has such a directory. I hope
someone else remembers what caused and cured that "glyph 126"
problem--curiouser and curiouser.

Ahhh, memory didn't serve me so well. For some reason I was
thinking that the prefs files migrated out a drawer directly
into the Program directory at some point in recent development.
I'll put my prefs files back into a drawer and see what
happens.

Probably nothing to do with the font error.

The error comes from a file distributed in PageStream4. It is an Amiga
bitmap font by the name of SoftLogik that comes in a couple small sizes
and was/is used for the ruler and a few other things as I recall. I bet
if you look, you have a user startup item that is adding the pagestream
4 softlogik font folder to the system font paths.

Now, PageStream5 (as I recall, I've not messed with this part in a
while) looks for and will use the font if it is available, but will fall
back to something else if not. You can either fix the font, or delete
it, or live with the error message every time you run PageStream.

The error is an error in the font file itself. I don't remember the
exact problem, but basically some font editor (TypeSmith, or the old
Amiga font editor, I don't remember) create empty/unused glyphs improperly.

Try copying in the files that Bart has recommended. I.E., into the «UserPrefs»
directory related to version 5.0.5.3 copy the files

FontUsage -- find it in the UserPrefs associated with version 5.0.5.2
PageStream5 Fonts -- I used what I had in the 5.0.3.3 version
PageStream5.prefs -- find it in the 5.0.5.2 version or, if you don't have a
file there, then try out the version that Bart listed
in a recent Email

I'm not so sure about FontUsage since the following shows that it is empty! Wink

5.WorkRazzageStream5053> list userprefs
Directory "userprefs" on Tuesday 12-Jan-10
PageStream5 Fonts 13714 ----rwed 04-Jan-09 20:38:47
FontUsage empty ----rwed Wednesday 00:20:46
PageStream5.prefs 3835 ----rwed Thursday 15:30:28
Dictionaries Dir ----rwed Saturday 19:11:44
Borders Dir ----rwed Saturday 19:11:43
3 files - 17K bytes - 2 directories - 45 blocks used

Perhaps, FontUsuage is soothing to 5.0.5.3! Wink

However, if you do get 5.0.5.3 to open, don't expect too much. I suspect Deron
released it to check if he had excised the rueful problem of repeated
reoccurrences of the yellow-on-black alerts which made 5.0.5.2 almost
impossible to handle. Here the those dreadful alerts have disappeared, and but
the harmless "glyph # 126" remains.

Hi PageStream Support,

I'm replying to Deron's missive, but am directing this to the Bart One who does
not see the "glyph #126" alert anymore.

<<snip>>

Here I have the line

Assign Fonts: "PageStream:SoftLogik/Fonts" ADD

in the «;BEGIN PageStream» part of my User-Startup file. I intend to maintain it
because I frequently still use version 4.1.5.6. Hmmmmm! I'm wondering if Bart
maintains or has eliminated such an ASSIGN statement.

On commenting the above out, and then opening 4.1.5.6 there were no obvious
problems, but I did not check the performance of 4.1.5.6 very carefully. So
perhaps it is no longer necessary when using 4.1.5.6! That might be nice because
.....

After a warm reboot, opening version 5.0.5.3 proceeded WITHOUT the complaint
about glyph #126. That's very nice, but when PageStream opened, a request to
activate «File -> System preferences... -> Fonts...» brought, as usual, an
immediate freeze. Furthermore, upon opening 5.0.3.3, PageStream's MUI screen
appears WITHOUT the glyph #126 complaint.

So the only question appears to be: Does the operation of version 4.1.5.6
require the assignment
Assign Fonts: "PageStream:SoftLogik/Fonts" ADD
in order to function properly? I will leave it commented out, and see what
happens in the future.

<<snip>>

As soon as I started using the working version of PgS5, I dropped all
references to PageStream from User-Startup. Instead I wrote a script,
S:pgs4start:

assign pagestream: apps:pagestream4
assign softlogik: pagestream:softlogik

I see it doesn't have that add-fonts line, but I don't think that is the
reason I haven't been able to run version 4.

I probably should have expanded that script to

assign pagestream: apps:pagestream4
assign softlogik: pagestream:softlogik
pagestream/pagestream4
assign pagestream:
assign softlogik:

Maybe I'll go ahead and try that, when it's OK to crash.

My 5.0.5.2 FontUsage reads in its entirety:

2010-01-06 17:37:52 v <NULL>

I didn't see any point in copying it to 5.0.5.3, but I could have been wrong
(oh no! Not twice in one lifetime!)

Not sure what you should do, but here is what I have in User-Startup relative
version 4.1.5.6

;BEGIN PageStream
Assign PageStream: "WorkRazzageStream"
Assign PageStream3: "WorkRazzageStream"
Assign PageStream4: "WorkRazzageStream"
Assign SoftLogik: "PageStream:SoftLogik"
; Assign Fonts: "PageStream:SoftLogik/Fonts" ADD ---commented out to see if it
affects PgS4
;END PageStream

In other words, the executable for 4.1.5.6 is located in «WorkRazzageStream/».
Until yesterday, the «Assign Fonts:» line was NOT commented out. I suspect,
guess, that the other 'assigns' are necessary,

You probably noticed the booboo in my "expansion": "pagestream/pagestream4"
needs to be "pagestream:pagestream4." Ain't no such place as "pagestream."
But even when I fixed that, the script just runs (Snoopy gets busy) and
exits.

I tried being more explicit, and dropping the un-assigns:

assign pagestream: apps:pagestream4
assign softlogik: Apps:pagestream4/softlogik
Assign PageStream3: AppsRazzageStream4
Assign PageStream4: AppsRazzageStream4
run Apps:pagestream4/pagestream4

I still think that on the basis of the first assign I should be able to use
"assign softlogik: pagestream:softlogik," etc., without all the
"AppsRazzageStream4" stuff, and running Assign in a shell confirms it, but
either way it's accept command, return to prompt in the Shell.

On the other hand, if I then explicity type in the last line, "run
Apps:pagestream4/pagestream4," the Grim Reaper drops by and offers to
Ignore DSI errors. Then when I accept that offer, up comes a new screen
full of a PageStream window, but only a titlebar.

To me, this seems very Weird and Mysterious. Why should typing a command
directly have a different outcome from letting a script type the command?

Hi Bart,

Actually I'm responding to my own reply, so let's do a snip:

<<snip>>

Not sure what you should do, but here is what I have in User-Startup relative
version 4.1.5.6

;BEGIN PageStream
Assign PageStream: "WorkRazzageStream"
Assign PageStream3: "WorkRazzageStream"
Assign PageStream4: "WorkRazzageStream"
Assign SoftLogik: "PageStream:SoftLogik"
; Assign Fonts: "PageStream:SoftLogik/Fonts" ADD ---commented out to see if it
affects PgS4
;END PageStream

In other words, the executable for 4.1.5.6 is located in «WorkRazzageStream/».
Until yesterday, the «Assign Fonts:» line was NOT commented out. I suspect,
guess, that the other 'assigns' are necessary.

LATER:
Yesterday I found out that commenting out the line:

Assign Fonts: "PageStream:SoftLogik/Fonts" ADD

is a bad idea. When the Edit Palette is displayed by PageStream 4.1.5.6, it is
mucked up. Uses some of those "SoftLogik/Fonts" fonts I guess.
