You mean exception ? The possibilities are:
1) A crashed (buggy ?) program (The WarpOS Exception is for PPC something like
the famous "Guru meditation Error")
2) A Configuration problem (but in this case *ALL* WarpOS programs would crash)
3) LR Bug (can only happen for 233 MHz machines, in this case install the
bugfix on Aminet)
If at least one WarpOS app runs fine, then it is not 2). If it is 1), do the
following:
- Check the docs of the program if a special size of Stack is required
- If that is not the case contact the author of the program.
Note, that one reason for a Crash might be "Out of memory" (in case of memory
hungry programs like Heretic II "The Siege" for example), you might want to do
a "avail" after the crash to check if "Out of memory" might be the problem
(Yes, a program should normally check if allocation was successful, before
using the memory... but not all programs do this...)
