Running #CSpect on Ubuntu (Debian)

Post by MonkZy »

I have spent a few evenings trying to run #CSpect on Ubuntu, with no success.

I have installed Mono

Code: Select all

me@home:~/cspect$ mono -V
Mono JIT compiler version 4.6.2 (Debian 4.6.2.7+dfsg-1ubuntu1)
Copyright (C) 2002-2014 Novell, Inc, Xamarin Inc and Contributors. www.mono-project.com
	TLS:           __thread
	SIGSEGV:       altstack
	Notifications: epoll
	Architecture:  amd64
	Disabled:      none
	Misc:          softdebug 
	LLVM:          supported, not enabled.
	GC:            sgen
I have placed the roms and a 2GB image in the root of the install

Code: Select all

me@home:~/cspect$ ls
3xAY                 dll_src           LowResDemo         parallax.nex
ay8912.dll           DMA               Mouse              Plugin.dll
Beast                enNextZX.rom      NXtel.bat          Plugins
beast.bat            enNxtmmc.rom      NXtel.nex          snasm.exe
beast.nex            i2C_Sample        openal32.dll       SNASM.rtf
CSpect.exe           i2C_Sample.dll    OpenTK.dll
cspect-next-2gb.img  known_issues.txt  OpenTK.dll.config
CSpectReadme.txt     Layer2            parallax.bat
I am using the following line to launch CSpect. I am using -sound due to missing the openal32.dll. The dll zip file from the zxspectrumnext.online site will not open in my archive manager. I tried some other openal32.dlls I found elsewhere but have since been using -sound which I am assuming will let you run CSpect without the dll present.

Code: Select all

mono CSpect.exe -w3 -sound -zxnext -nextrom -mmc=cspect-next-2gb.img
It fails with a SIGABRT

Code: Select all

Next ROM enabled

=================================================================
Got a SIGABRT while executing native code. This usually indicates
a fatal error in the mono runtime or one of the native libraries 
used by your application.
=================================================================
Quite likely I have made a mistake somewhere. Does anyone have experience of running CSpect under Linux?

Re: Running #CSpect on Ubuntu (Debian)

Post by MonkZy »

I Have now solved this.

Ubuntu 18.04 has an old version of Mono (4.6.2) in their repo :oops:

I followed the instructions here :

https://www.mono-project.com/download/s ... wnload-lin

and updated Mono to the latest stable version (6.8.0).

#CSpect is now working :D
