It has a serial.device emulation but I haven't been able to map it to a physical RS-233 port. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Lochlenn · 2020-07-26 16:11 Some people *do* still have real Amigas ---------------------------------------------------------------------- z80org · 2020-07-26 16:30 Yeah. I have five of them but running them 24/7 isn't always a great idea when we are talkimg about 30+ year old tech. I also run a Amiga based BBS since many years now and I recently moved it to a virtual box simply to save the hardware... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- cwstephenson71 · 2020-07-26 17:49 I'm running under linux, it's an Amiga themed BBS ---------------------------------------------------------------------- cwstephenson71 · 2020-07-26 17:52 The Aniga linux emulator allows it as well. I sorta of had it hooked up after weeks of trial and error. I have 2 USB modems and a 2 port VOIP. Recent health issues put everything on hold ---------------------------------------------------------------------- z80org · 2020-07-26 17:53 You will provably be alright then. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- cwstephenson · 2020-07-28 09:26 I have Amiga Forever (paid for). The modems I have are USB Modems (2). I also have a 2-port VOIP that uses google voice. I have the software setup, the issue I'm having is the USB modems keep 'disconnecting' when I reboot my system. I have to unplug and plug them up again in order for linux to 'see' them connected to the USB ports. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- z80org · 2020-07-28 20:56 Do you expose the modems to the emulated Amiga? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- cwstephenson · 2020-08-15 18:30 The emulation software handles all of that build-in. I'm using Amiga Forever. it runs on top of linux and it 'connects' to any hardware it needs ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [deleted] · 2020-08-16 05:42 Amiga Forever is for Windows only. Please let us know when you got it working. I was never able to get it working with FS-UAE or Amiga Forever. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- cwstephenson · 2020-08-20 23:42 No, Amiga Forever isn't for JUST windows. I have it, and have it installed on 2 of my laptops. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- cwstephenson · 2020-08-20 23:43 What version of AE are you using, and are you using Windows or Linux? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [deleted] · 2020-08-21 10:33 I'm using FS-UAE on Linux. Amiga Forever is a software package for Windows. You are most likely running this Windows software in Wine in Linux? https://www.amigaforever.com/gnulinux/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- cwstephenson · 2020-10-06 00:18 Yes I am. It works pretty good for the most part.
