Screen Shot

[zeke1312]

I'm new at this so...I want to take a screenshot of a workbench using e-uae. Can you assist? Thank you

[Locutus]

you can ofcourse just take a screengrab of e-uae running, or use sgrab from inside the emulated amiga:

You should be able to take a snapshot just pressing the key "PrtSc" on your keyboard. AmiPup is a Linux distribution so it should be associated to a simple capture program by default.
Maybe you can read this article.

Are you missing rom.key?

[liviux76]

are you using the GUI as "root"?

The path in e-uae says "/root/my-applications/...." and you are showing the content of the folders "~/my-applications/..."

if you are using the system as "root" (I doubt that) the symbol "~" means "/root/" but if you are using the system as user "zeke1312" (just to say a username) the symbol "~" means "/home/zeke1312/" so it is normal that e-uae doesn't find the files it needs on "/root/my-applications/...."

In addition to what liviux76 wrote, e-uae needs a ROM file, not a directory. On your screenshot kick.rom is a directory which contains several ROM files. You have to select one of them. For example: /root/my-applications/amiga/rom/kick.rom/amiga-os-130.rom

This is a directory:

And this is a file:

~/my-applications is a directory
~/my-applications/amiga is a directory
~/my-applications/amiga/rom is a directory
~/my-applications/amiga/rom/kick.rom is a directory <== you selected this, that's your mistake
~/my-applications/amiga/rom/rom.key does not exist <== you selected this, that's a mistake, too
~/my-applications/amiga/rom/kick.rom/amiga-os-310-a1200.rom is a file <== you have to select this
~/my-applications/amiga/rom/kick.rom/rom.key is a file <== and this

All of the above assume that ~ is the same as /root.

Can't you just click on "change" and select the proper file from the requester?

Thomas is right, you are trying to load a dir not a rom. Having a dir named as kick.rom is confusing the issue.

I would move all the .rom files from the kick.rom dir to the rom dir and delete kick.rom dir.

OK, I cleaned up the first PC to this point. Now I need to copy "amiga files" to amiga forever?

OK, I got my problem solved by just looking at the options I have in LinuxMint 17.2
Thank you
