Yeah. I had a similar problem with the '030 and it turned out that Apple was checking the internal details of the 680x0 coprocessor interface (there are coprocessor interface registers in the CPU address space). The coprocessor interface doesn't exist on the '040 so it's not that. The...
Yes, it's known. Throwing an F-line trap on FPU instructions for the '040 gives a sad Mac error and I haven't investigated why that is so MAME always emulates a full '040.
I'd generally expect the real VIA to be slower than the pseudo-VIA given it's more complex, so I'd lean towards the faster CPU in the IIci making the difference.
And yeah, I understand why FIFO full bit went away. It's not useful in any case, especially if you just leave the ASC enabled after...
Thanks again Callan! Wrenches are good, it makes sure we understand what's actually happening. That actually does line up with what I'm seeing in MAME where I got IIci perfect when spamming the Sound control panel, but SE/30 and friends are two IRQs short. Like Doug I don't have an...
I'd love to see results from a II, IIx, IIcx, or SE/30 too, just to get data on the original ASC + discrete VIA2 combination. (Those 4 machines are identical for this testing, so I only need one of them).
Thanks Callan! Interesting that the 950 and the 700 are slightly different, but that may well be the quad doubler. If it's not a big hassle to try without it I'd love to see that, but if not that's OK too.
Awesome, thank you! That verifies that PrimeTime II behaves the same as PrimeTime and IOSB.
A few more machines that I don't expect to show anything unexpected but I'm going to ask anyway: a IIvx / IIvi, and a Mac TV.
