Also, for both Qt5 and Qt6, the environment variable "QT_PM_CP" can be used to change the code page that the window title uses. To quote Rich,

Paul, setting the CP to 1208 in the environment should also enable
you/someone  to test the QT6 sample apps without having to change
a line of code.

Code page 1208 is UTF8.

How do you use this setting ?

I added as environment variable :
'set QT_PM_CP=1208'

This makes Dooble not start

 Thanks Dave, Rich and Paul for this fix! Works well here with Dooble using either QT6 or QT5.

 Dave, in regards to OpenGL, Paul said QT needs either gl2.h or egl.h to build OpenGL functions. You had made a build of PortableGL whose samples worked well here so I was wondering if PortableGL provided either of those files...

Max resolution offered by Panorama is 1280x1024.

Is there a "safe" way to get a higher resolution or do I simply have to experiment.
My tests with a new system tought me to -
- better use AMD
- better use DisplayPort
- don't connect both (or 3) outputs at the same time (DP, HDMI, DVI VGA) especially from cold boot.
- don't disconnect output from monitor, don't use KVMs (no KVM works here reliable either DP nor HDMI)
- HDMI output here only offers 1400 x 1050 sometimes. When DP is connected too it magically offers full 3840x2160 but system traps when selected afterwards while boot.  Of course I use short high quality cables only.
- DP usually offers full resolution (or most complete list)
- Panorama with integrated AMD Ryzen only offers 2560x1440 altough the system runs 3840x2160 perfectly well with other OSes (except Win7 which only can do 2560x1440 cause Ryzen 7 is not supported anymore with AMD Win7 driver).
- AMD RX550 works better with Panorama (and Win7) then integrated GPU
- 3840x2160 on one system (UEFI) leads to trap 000e in VMAN while 2560x1440 works.

You can also look at the tickets in mantis to find the log file of video (gradxx?) which is written at boot up to see what Panorama driver has to say. Or look into 'testlog generic' output.

This build, ftp://dry@ftp.os2voice.org/dooble/dooble-2024.12.06-Qt6.zip is the same as the previous build except it has fixed window title for non-English titles, best shown with Remy's page, https://remydodin.levillage.org/en/.Other languages depend on the window title's font having the correct glyphs. Example, https://ru.ecomstation.ru/, which here shows the Russian in the title bar.
Currently Qt6 is missing the code that allows fixing the window list.
Also need https://smedley.id.au/tmp/qos2-20241205.zip and https://smedley.id.au/tmp/qt6core-20241206.zip
Thanks to Rich for coming up with the patches and Paul for building the Qt6 DLL's.

Also need ftp://dry@ftp.os2voice.org/tmp/Qt5libs-2024-12.06.zip I'd advise backing up the original DLL's in @unixroot and replacing them. Don't lxlite the plugin (qos2.dll) as there is metadata that will be lost if using lxlite on it. Qt5core.dll has debug data that should probably be kept.
Thanks to Rich for coming up with the patches.

I wanted to publish this second video, now there will be a rest for some time.

It shows:

- Windows 11 Home 64
- Linux Mint 22 Cinnamon
- ArcaOS 5.1

with the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 2024, all nativ, with UEFI and GPT, can be choosen with the rEFInd Bootmanager.

I hope you enjoy it.

It may take a day time for Youtube to process the Subtitels in English!

All the best, hope, you have some fun!

I'm now testing;

GPU: Asus Geforce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB, (Nvidia).
Monitor: Samsung Odyssey G8 G80SD 32" 4K OLED.
Connection: HDMI

Max resolution offered by Panorama is 1280x1024.

Is there a "safe" way to get a higher resolution or do I simply have to experiment.

Change video cards? Nvidia is known to not be friendly with no way to patch its BIOS for higher video resolutions. You could open a ticket but I think you will be told the same thing.

Virtualization / Re: A new video about OS/2 after more than 4 Years...

Regardless of our decreasing user-count, OS/2 is probably going to survive the heat death of the universe at this rate. Very nicely done, Sigurd!
