Many have closed. I used to be a denizen of Halted in the Sunnyvale area but I think it's gone now. For the LA area, the swap meets used to be the thing, but COVID killed a number of them and the remainder mostly sell consumer electronics.

You could use the Apple ones. The PCI-based 10/100 NICs intended for PCI Power Macs have four LEDs (the Apple Network Server-specific variant has two and may not work). Those should "just work" with 7.5.2 and up.

A new release of the Incredible KIMplement, a Commodore KIM-1 emulator that runs on your Commodore 64. The KIM-1 is a 1976 single board computer with a 1MHz MOS 6502 CPU, 1K of RAM, six hex LEDs and a keypad, and was one of the first complete systems you could assemble for just a few hundred...

Welcome. I used to assist an elementary school teacher with a classroom full of CoCo 2s and a master CoCo 3. It used Tandy's "cassette network" system to distribute files. Quite a setup. My fraction trainer program was in use there for a number of years.

Image that drive NOW!

My cat did the same thing until I replaced her power supply.

I still have a 1.25GHz iMac G4 I use for watching DVDs and playing music in the kitchen, and as a security monitor (I have an old video concentrator for the security cameras). It's a 15", so the arm is still great.

Still struggling, huh? What's the most current set of errors you're getting?

My pleasure.

Is it still Lynx if we add mouse hotspots, dialogue boxes and scrollbars? I'd argue ... heck yeah! Runs on System 7.0 and up, A/UX compatible. https://oldvcr.blogspot.com/2023/01/maclynx-beta-4-now-with-scrollbars-and.html

Too bad a POWER9 doesn't count ;) (doing this from a Raptor Talos II).

Very nice restoration. Hope it sticks.

Excellent!

Sure, go for it! I don't know what it will do on other Macs, though, so they should definitely only use it if necessary.

Here is a patched driver for other mute 6500s. Conclusion: there are at least two 6500 versions, and later ones have an external SRS module which requires setting the parallel output bits on the AWACS. https://oldvcr.blogspot.com/2022/12/the-strange-case-of-beos-srs-and-silent.html

Tiger was distributed on both CD and DVD. Which image set do you have?

Welcome. I know the feeling.

Sure beats the epoxy old power supplies (notoriously Commodore 8-bit ones) were potted with.

We have audio on the internal speakers now. I'm doing some fiddling, but it did require hacking the AWACS driver. It does look like there are internal differences with later Gazelle systems. More soon.

I'm wondering if the problem is that the chip is not detected as PowerPC big-endian, and thus it tries to set up the JIT, which actually won't work because current compilers are too *new*. What did the configure sequence detect the CPU as?
