    gb6: game boy emulator for System 6

    Yeah, not sure if that would be possible unless I do some crazy JIT thing where I recompile the game to 68k code and only use software emulation where instructions don’t match up. Just updating the emulated flags uses well over 8 cycles.

    gb6: game boy emulator for System 6

    This is a very unfinished project I started a long time ago but recently picked back up - a Game Boy emulator targeting System 6 with the (impractical?) goal of running at a playable speed on an unmodified Mac Plus. Today I managed to get to a milestone: it displays something on the screen. I...

    Any interest in 16MB Mac IIFX memory modules?

    I’d like to sign up for a 128mb set - trying to get a modern Linux kernel running on my IIfx and more RAM would make it easier!

    Outbound Notebook 2000 manual

    Hey! I'm trying to find the voltage and polarity that the original power supply for the Outbound Notebook 2000 used. Does anyone have scans of the manual or a picture of the AC adapter itself? Also, anyone know where I can get an image of the floppies that shipped with the unit containing the...

    SE/30 + AppleCD unimplemented trap

    I'm running into a strange issue when using my AppleCD 600e with my SE/30 running System 7.5.5. Whenever I insert a known-good disc, it spins up just fine, and then when the Finder tries to add the icon for the CD to the desktop, I get an unimplemented trap error.  This started when I booted up...

    Macintosh 128k~Plus Analog Board, Safety Capacitors C33, C37, C38

    I just had C38 explode on a Plus analog board, and I replaced all three safety capacitors with the following: C33, C37: https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/80-KJN472MQ55FBAAA C38: https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/80-PME271M610MR30 Works great and fits the footprint on the PCB perfectly.

    How feasible is TLS under System 6?

    I'm testing out CodeWarrior, and while it's definitely better than THINK, it has the exact same problem #including files in subdirectories! No big deal though, I've written a Java utility to correct the #include directives as well as change the line endings to Mac format, and I'm about to run it...

    How feasible is TLS under System 6?

    Yeah, I just need to get it together and learn how to use a debugger. My SE/30 is running Open Transport's MacTCP emulation on System 7.5.5 through a PDS Ethernet adapter. I believe the reason it was crashing is because I was printf'ing the IP address from within a Device Manager callback...

    How feasible is TLS under System 6?

    Finally got some time to work on this... after fighting MacTCP for an hour (device manager calls? really?) it looks up addresses.. and then crashes. Not pictured: my super cool empty friends list window (it's hidden behind the "console" window) Enough work for tonight! :p

    128k MoBo, garbled video and chime with Sad Mac

    Going by the "Single Chip Identification" table on the Apple page I linked in my previous reply, 1110100100100101 (E925 in binary) means that the RAM chips at locations G12, G11, G10, G8, G5, F10, F7, and F5 are bad. That much RAM going bad at once doesn't make a lot of sense, you're absolutely...

    128k MoBo, garbled video and chime with Sad Mac

    04E925 signifies a RAM error. Are the last four digits the same every time? They are supposed to be a bitmask that points you to the physical location of the bad memory chips on the logic board. E925 in binary is 1110100100100101-- a lot of bits are set. I don't think that many memory chips...

    How feasible is TLS under System 6?

    Well, I now have the libstrophe XMPP library connecting to FB chat non-securely and returning my friends list. I was wrong about them requiring a secure connection, but I still want to implement security anyway. libstrophe contains tls_openssl.c and tls_gnutls.c, so they already have the TLS...

    How feasible is TLS under System 6?

    Looking at the MatrixSSL API, it appears that all you need to do is pass buffers filled with data you want to encode/decode. It doesn't seem to be specific to any one system of sockets. Granted, I haven't looked at MacTCP yet, so I don't know if any unexpected wrenches will be thrown into the...

    How feasible is TLS under System 6?

    These are all really good ideas. You're right about TLS not requiring as close integration with TCP as I originally thought. Making my app GPL doesn't bother me too much, so I'll probably just use MatrixSSL to save myself the trouble. Some programmers enjoy implementing everything from scratch...

    SE/30 horizontal sweep lines....still!

    Honestly, I didn't see your suggestion until after I had swapped it out. Oops. The local computer shop gave me a broken SE with good video, and I swapped the video and analog boards in my SE/30 with the boards from that one. It worked, so I put my analog board back in. It still worked, revealing...
