[Simh] Problem with UC15 simulator

[Ray Jewhurst]

I am running the current version of Simh on a Dual Core, Quad Pipeline Core
i5 (3rd gen) laptop with Linux Mint. Every time I go to run the sim this
is what I get:

***@ray-Inspiron-5537 ~/Emulation/UC-15 $ pdp15

PDP-15 simulator V4.0-0 Current git commit id: 15fd71b9
sim> set dr enabled
sim> set cpu api
sim>

Ok everything's fine with the PDP-15 and now I go to start the UC15 I get:

***@ray-Inspiron-5537 ~/Emulation/UC-15 $ uc15
Fatal simulator initialization error
File open error
Hit Return to exit:

Any ideas?

Thanks

Ray

ps I am running them in separate Term windows per instructions.

Since Bob Supnik has just recently introduced the UC15, I'm thinking
he's likely to be the first line of support for that.

Given that, you should download, build and run simh-3.10-RC from:
https://github.com/simh/simh/archive/Supnik-Current.zip

Please try again with the Supnik-Current code and if you see the same
errors there, I hope he'll be glad to look into it.

I built pdp15 and uc15 in Supnik-Current. I still received the error.
Also, on the Supnik build I couldn't enable (DR). I'm not even sure what
that device is for that matter.

Thanks

Ray

These things are now fixed in the github.com/simh/simh master
branch.
