A self-contained QEMU-based A/UX system for macOS

[cat7]

Are you then using the self-contained package or the download from emaculation that enables the multi-display option?

I would never have thought of doing that. Thank you. I've changed the command to "-display sdl" in my app, and will upload the corrected version soon. Thank you again!

Incidentally, I'm running it under Ventura. Are you using a different macOS version?

I am not sure if it's a good idea to make "-display sdl" the default. SDL is not installed by default, so either you make it a pre-requisite for the user or you bundle it into the package. Both options are not attractive, I guess.

The SDL2 library is in the Libs folder in the package. I've tested the app on systems that absolutely do NOT have SDL installed, and it works correctly. The SDL option does not require any software that isn't part of the app itself.

Also, I can confirm that, under Sonoma on ARM, the Mac OS menu bar is not visible, as reported above, so this is another reason to make SDL the default.

I wonder whether Apple has removed some Cocoa support from Sonoma, and that causes this problem"

I had no trouble launching it under Monterey on Intel. Have you tried this: open a terminal, type in

xattr -rc

followed by a space; then drag the app into the terminal window and press Enter. Then try running the app.

That did the trick (preceded by sudo), thanks

Which is exactly what it says on the download page (https://mendelson.org/auxrunner.html) under the heading "If the app won't start." I had forgotten (until I looked back at the page) that the command needs "sudo" and I should have remembered that in my earlier post.

Yeah, I did it with previous version but completely forgot to do it again when replacing it whith the newer one, my bad...

This is awesome! Thanks so much for putting it together.

Thank you so much.
Unfortunately, the latest updated somehow lost the top of screen finder menu bar. Is there anything I can do to get it back?

This is a known issue with Sonoma with a patch incoming for the Cocoa UI: https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/1994#note_1711730857
