First week with COS 3.0

Post by 53hornet »

So I've been enjoying COS 3.0 for a week. Here's what I've done with it.

First, I installed this on my daily driver Dell Latitude E6510. Everything works great -- sound, wifi, suspend, Nvidia graphics, and the docking station. I had to clean up some of the free Linux games unfortunately to make room for my data. Maybe later I'll move them to an external drive :)

Anyway, I've been spending lots of time enjoying Compiz again. I made some tweaks to suit my workflow. Everything has been laughs at the effects which work surprisingly smoothly on this old laptop.

Something I've wanted to do for a while is start some Commodore 64 game cross development. I was happy to see Vice an CC65 preinstalled, so I started writing some C. Now at the end of week 1 I have a rudimentary tic-tac-toe game. I figured I'd throw some money at Cloanto for the ROM license (I already have the AmigaForever ROMs) to keep testing with the "official" stuff.

My computer's fun again. What are you all doing with your new Commodore OS Vision installs? :)
I'm keepin' up with a C64, VIC20, and A1200.

Hello! I only recently found this system and, I am very impressed. I grew up with an Atari and a ZX Spectrum, but I've seen Commodore at friends' houses. I loved that time. Lots of great memories. Mx Linux I know very well and use on a daily basis, but Commodore Os only as time travel machines, which is amazing. Greetings from Poland!
