I actually looked into replacing the resistor, but I couldn’t even manage to figure out which on to change on the driver board (pcb800099) 😅. I got ahold of the panel spec sheets so know what the backlight wants for full light. It should be 300 nits, but juding how dim it is I really don’t think...

Nice! Did you happen to note what actual lcd panel the Eyoyo display uses? I've been eyeing that one too for a color SE/30 project as the HJ080IA-01E I bought is a bit too dim for my taste.

@aminor works fine under 32-bit mode 🎉. Only "issue" is the mentioned need for initial boot with Mac OS < 6.08. Perhaps there's a way to set the needed pram parameter some other way to ensure 7+ compabillity. @bigmessowires might have an idea as he bought my 2nd SuperMac card and has played...

I have a rom dump for the card if you'd like to dig into it to see what it is doing. I myself have zero clue on how to read / disassemble one of those and kind of gave up. My initial idea way back was to learn how to hack the rom to add additional resolutions / modes (ie maybe greyscale to run...

Yhea it's a bit of a struggle to get it working under System 7. The way they implemented the screen / resolution picker breaks booting anything above 6.08. The only way to get it into 7+ is to first boot in < 6.08, and then have the setting you choose retained in pram. I have one myself, but due...

Yes, Supermac Spectrum. See this thread for some more info. Unfortunately not a super useful card as it struggles with os support and some bugs. But a cool piece of history nevertheless. https://68kmla.org/bb/index.php?threads/supermac-pdq-spectrum-8-24-thunder-roms.42656/post-502094

Awesome!

Thank’s for sharing! Yhea cool splash huh, love having my SE/30 brag about being 24bit 😂

Sweet, thanks for sharing!

For what it’s worth I had two for sale locally here in Sweden for $50 and $40. One in excellent condition and the cheaper a bit yellow. Took me 3-4 weeks to get rid of them at that price 😅.

I’d go for a Rom4x and a FujiApple. I bought mine from @masteries here on 68kmla. A joystick is also nice to have. That’s pretty much it unless you’d feel the want for a mockingboard.

That’s awesome! There’s a fourth socket available for adding an oscillator, so hopefully you wouldn’t have to exchange anything and can just add the 24mhz one 😊.

What about a 29c256? Seems like a popular replacement for a 27c128 from what I managed to find online.

Finally recieved my T48! Attached is a dump of the "Supermac Spectrum SE/30 v1.0" rom. Please help me check wether it seems correct as it's my first ever rom dump. I could read some text in the written data so that at least looked promising :).

Looks awesome!
