    MacOS 9.2 running on a Nintendo Wii with native cpu

    That surprises me, since SheepShaver's Linux port isn't at all new. What didn't the compiler like?

    TI-99/4A

    My first computer was a Tomy Tutor, which is actually closest to the 99/8 (9995, 9918A).

    BeOS Install

    Progress! What you have is the Gobe 5.0.3 release; I used Be's official 5.0. I installed what you did on another partition. There was still no sound through the main speakers, but … the front headphones work! Well, sort of. They’re very scratchy like the sound is being overdriven but BeBeep and...

    BeOS Install

    Yes, all well on the MacOS side. I might use your image on the scratch partition and see if there is any difference.

    Allow myself to introduce.... myself

    Welcome. I'm sure everyone here is either weird or weird-adjacent. I know I am (you decide which). :)

    BeOS Install

    Let me just make sure I understand - you used the archive.org copy? I'm starting to wonder if there is something going on apart from the driver at this point.

    BeOS Install

    Made an instrumented build and it claims everything is fine. What I really need is some documentation on AWACS. Can't find it in any of the Apple Technical Notes (in particular where it sits in the 5500/6500 memory map in O'Hare and any weirdness about it, SRS support, etc.)

    Welcome. Got a Tek X term around here.

    BeOS Install

    Took it out and no difference. Sigh. Going to have to make an instrumented build of the awacs driver and see where it chokes.

    Donation yesterday to Twin Cities Free Geek!

    Yowza. Break out the capacitors and soldering irons for those SE/30s, though. The Monitor /// makes me sad because mine was stolen out of my storage unit in a burglary. The actual Apple /// itself was probably too heavy for them to lift, fortunately.

    Aww. Very kind of you to say.

    Maxell responded to the battery leak issue on Twitter

    A blown Maxell ruined my Apple Network Server prototype (unfortunately before I got it). https://oldvcr.blogspot.com/2021/10/shiner-esb-apple-network-server.html

    Just acquired an STE, any tips?

    STacy owner myself, though I haven't done much with it lately.

    Disk Jockey 1999

    Excellent!

    Disk Jockey, a disk image file maker for your retro stuff - Beta for version 3!

    I'd like to look at porting Disk Jockey Jr to PowerPC so that I can run it on my G5 (more convenient), and it should work assuming it's C and doesn't use any weirdo APIs, but https://diskjockey.onegeekarmy.eu/djjr gives me a 404?

    BeOS Install

    Looks like it's the same file as the AWACS driver on my mute 6500, so more analysis is required. Currently I'm theorizing there is a difference between the 275 and 300MHz boards and the ones 250MHz and below.

    Grail Item Acquired - Twentieth Anniversary Mac

    Very nice! I have a similar TAM (G3, CS2 NIC, 9.2.2, repaired buzz-free base). A periodic goal of mine is a "fast booter" (or a really thinned boot floppy) so I can play CDs in it without having to wait for the full MacOS to come up.

    PPC NetPositive+ for PowerPC BeOS

    Oh, I ran into that when developing inetb. When threads terminated abnormally (like, I forcibly killed them) it made a mess in net_server, which inevitably needed to be restarted (but at least it could be restarted). I had to figure out a way to gracefully tell threads to go away even when they...
