Hey everyone! We've been having issues with being bombarded by forum spam bots. As a temporary measure we're disabling registration for around 72 hours. Anyone wanting to join up as a legitimate user, please have patience! :)
Cool! Thanks for testing!
I don't know how to set upload permissions to an specific folder, but I'd be glad to create a user for you, so you can enter with an authenticated account and then you can upload stuff. Just tell me the nickname you want and I'll send you the password here by private...
So I got a bit hooked with this and I created a server using Mobius in a Linux VM in AWS
The server is hotline.retrobyt.es and is in the hltracker.com list
For now it's just freshly deployed and I'm checking how it works, but if you want to test it and report, it would be appreciated!
You’d be missing the wrist rest thingies for the adjustable keyboard, but as these are pretty hideous, I won’t blame you.
Ah… not black, but I’d like to have myself the gray mouse for the PowerBook 1xx
Technically speaking yes... You could use GPIO9 to control a relay with a python script and turn on/off the power line of the Mac, but frankly speaking I don't know if this is useful, as you can simply let the Mac waiting (blinking disk with question mark) until the RASCSI service is enabled.
Hey.
Apparently the RASCSI only leaves GPIO9 as an useable input to connect a button (it has two more in the board, but it seems that aren't really available). You need to connect the button to that pin and to ground.
Then you need to edit config.txt (in /boot) and add this line...
What about the PRAM battery and main battery?
Adding the BlueSCSI is a great improvement. Having it running silent is neat.
I made myself these:
I just miss the network capabilities of the RASCSI.
In the photo the tunnel vision is not evident, so it seems you were lucky. No need to recap the screen?
I guess you're using some RAM software doubler, right?
I’m playing with this these days and it’s quite interesting.
it would be cool if we agree in a “Hotline day”, so people gets connected to one of these servers and we can make this alive again for a moment.
I must say I didn't use this at the time, and I discovered Hotline just recently.
I installed the client and connected to some servers... no other users online.
I al tried to setup a Linux server, but so far the two I found I wasn't able to compile (seem to be a quite old code).
Is there any...
The one-button thing is because it seems that only one GPIO port is available, not because I'd prefer it.
The management with the web interface is quite nice, and the normal thing to do, but that's creating dependencies with other devices, while an autonomous thing (like the floppy-emu) seems...
That would be a great thing!
For the buttons or rotary interface the main issue is the limited GPIO pins… the RASCSI has three but checking about it and asking to @landogriffin , apparently only one is really available, so this would only allow a one-button interface, which could be enough with...
I have it with 1MB (don't want to upgrade it) and 6.0.8 is what I use.
You can try my image: https://www.dropbox.com/s/04vzm1mdtp9me2d/HD10_512%20Boot-6.0.8.hda.zip?dl=0
Finally I could complete this project.
I changed the PRAM Battery and made an ugly, but functional refurbishment of the main battery.
Now this PowerBook can be off grid again.
I’m quite happy with how this ended up.
