@phunguss, It's interesting and worth trying. Thanks! When I have a cable and this KVM, I'll come back with the result.

@phunguss I need a pin-out of the standard Mac DB15 to DB15 video cable. I don't think anything else will be needed. I saw this scheme, it's an adapter, Apple VGA to PC VGA, when I searched myself. But unfortunately it doesn't fit. If everything was so simple, I wouldn't have written here. :)

Usually the cables do not have a direct pin 1 - 1, 2 - 2, etc, there are always some intricacies. I should get this KVM from eBay in a while. I have no other information about this device, at least not yet. I don't have a single DB15 cable, so I can't call the contacts myself. And all the...

I need to get a few DB15 cables of different lengths to connect the Mac to the KVM Switch. Unfortunately, I can't find ready-made and suitable options for me. I have an idea: buy PC VGA cables of the required length, cut off the connectors, and install DB15 Apple VGA in their place. But I can't...

We all know about the problem with file fragments when copying using Finder to the BlueSCSI SD card. A few years ago, when I got my first BlueSCSI, this problem made me think about how to copy files, and at the same time not open the terminal window every time for this. Usually I perform all my...

I faced a similar problem, I didn't study it thoroughly, but it wasn't like that at first glance Connected to BSv2 0 Disk 1 Disc 2 Disk 3 CD 4 Disk 5 Disk 6 Wi-Fi SCSI on another channel is connected 3 CD 5 ZIP The Wi-Fi app can't find the device. I remove several disks in BlueSCSI, and...

I haven't tried connecting SATA DVD-ROM. Periodic inability to boot (does not see the disk), inability to format the disk, and other oddities disappeared after replacing the capacitors on these old boards. I prepared my first card in December 2022, and it works without any hassle for me...

And what's wrong? I left messages about my experience here, and these boards have been working perfectly all these years: G3 BW, G4 QS, MDD. I bought these 2 boards for PM9500 and PM9600, and they also work perfectly. I liked such boards for these computers much more, because you don't need to...

Finally, it's time when I can share the results of this card on the Macintosh Quadra 950. Disk subsystem performance when using the stock processor 68040 33 Mhz Disk subsystem performance when using the Apple PPC Upgrade card 66 Mhz On average, SEIV increases the performance of the disk...

I use DBT-120 dongle. ( Rev. B4, It's important) It had to be flashed on Bluetooth Firmware Updater, and then it works perfectly, even in OS9. Using this Bluetooth dongle, I connected the Apple Wireless Keyboard to the Power Macintosh 9600.

@NJRoadfan, It didn't help. But today I managed to solve this problem. Apparently, all my difficulties were related to the fact that I used to assemble Netatalk according to the instructions, and finally decided to switch to using ready-made packages in brew. And apparently he didn't completely...

@JDW, In general, I could not even think that this forum threads discuss only specific SIMM ROMs, not all that can be created. It's amazing for me. :) But I learned a lot of new things, thanx. Someday I will probably tell you about my experiments with the Q950, which I received this year. I...

I finally got a programmer and 8 MB ROM SIMM. First I tried ready-made images for Quadra 950, and now I'm making my own. And here's the question... do I understand correctly that at the moment the custom firmware for Quadra 950 does not support disk compression? :unsure: All my attempts to...

I also faced a problem that I can't solve. Netatalk installed from brew, version 4.2.3. Part of the log, when trying to mount the shared directory on Mac OS 9.2.2 Chooser on Mac OS 9 displays the "Share" directory, but it is "gray" and not available for mounting. I don't see any problems...

Discovered modern software for connecting AFP shared directories -- Apple Share IP Browser. This allows you to connect, for example, from System Software 7.0.1 on Quarda 950 to the general AFP catalog on Netatalk.
