Good work! Another platform on which we can now run QDOSMSQ.

And it seems MAME (MESS is now part of MAME core) QL emulation also works well on armv7 Chromebook, good news for all those people with Pi2 and similar machines.
Now if I can just figure out the archaic cmdline to switch it to use minerva rom

Can you do some simple benchmarks to compare how the various QL emulators perform on this platform?

Can you point me at the ones to use, we can build a forum table of various platforms.dilwyn wrote:Can you do some simple benchmarks to compare how the various QL emulators perform on this platform?
I have a lot of ARM/ARM64 machines here going spare

Not having used them, I don't know which ones would be most relevant though.
Just thought it might be nice to have some form of relative comparisons of the three emulators running on the same system, as they don't seem to get as much use and publicity as say QPC or QemuLator.

Looks good, Im busy with a software release and travelling next week but Ill see what I can do after that.
It is interesting information to gather. Specially as more and more people getting interested in arm/arm64 dev boards.

Very nice!
What about running the “new PCW Benchmarks” implemented in the QTop-Index program on those beauties? See http://qlforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1500
Would be very nice to get to know your Benchmark results.
Cheers,
Urs

MAME does not support .win files so the relevant bits would need to be broken out as a floppy image!QLvsJAGUAR wrote:Very nice!
