Hi!  I'm trying to port JOVE to my Amiga.  But I had a weird problem with
the Makefile.  This line:

	@sed -e 's;TMPDIR;$(TMPDIR);' \
	     -e 's;LIBDIR;$(LIBDIR);' \
	     -e 's;BINDIR;$(BINDIR);' \
	     -e 's;SHELL;$(SHELL);' tune.template >> tune.c

in the Makefile causes my Amiga to consistently GURU.  (I'm using Manx's
make.)  (I have the PD version of sed, although I don't know if it's
complete enough to handle something like this; I tried doing some simply
stuff by hand and it seems to work.)

Anyway, that's very annoying.  I ended up just ignoring the problem and
"hardcoding" tune.c to have the right values.

But what's bad is that when the system reboots the hard disk is, like,
infinitely slow.  (Slight exaggeration...)  After I do an
"AddBuffers dh0: 40" a couple of times, it begins to run at normal speed.

So, does anyone know what the scoop is?

Robert
