Is there a 'canned' version of of netatalk that works on modern distros, that still work with the old macs?

Does qemu now have a working shared folder with the host system? Last time I tried, it didn't work. I was looking into using it for my Marchintosh Project but gave up as it was quite painful to exchange files...

I wrote an Apple IIe emulator for linux that I opened source a few weeks back, and I wasn't happy with the UI library I've been using, so I've been busy re-writing a MacOS classic 'toolbox' for linux! It's kind of a 'flattened' OS8 theme; ie I think the grayscale didn't age too well, while the...

Neat! What firmware did you use on the arduino?

I'm also interested in 2 or 3 of these; I'm in the England (Bucks) and Wales (Powys) :-) -- oh, and I can do SMT soldering, if you are considering a kit.

You can easily create a 'top header' as a precompiled header with whatever you like to define in there... This will be "included" in every file you compile.

You should check PiStorm. Desolder the 68k, install PiStorm and you get software running the Mac instead. Right now it's pretty early stage, but it boots. I've socketed the 68k on a mac SE here, and plan to hack away at that project for a little while...

Thanks for checking your stocks @mg.man -- I DID manage to fix the broken key switch. Still have intermittent problem with quite a few other keys, even with deox. I think I'll let it 'rest' a bit as I might have overdosed the keyboard with deox :)

Yes I used continuity after removing the switch. I managed to fix one of them too, somehow bending the little blade 'just so' made it work, while no amount of contact fluid seemed to help. However the keyboard is in very good cosmetic shape, but quite a few keys are hit/miss somehow, I wonder if...

Here goes. The one on the left works, but it's gray tabs are broken. I can/will put a drop of superglue on it, as I don't think I plan to disassemble it again anyway. The one that is disassembled is mechanically fine, BUT doesn't work, can't seem to find out why...

I've got 2 broken switches. Well one is not physically broken, but won't work (looks very clean inside, but no contacts somehow). The other one is definitely broken, but not the stem, the gray 'chassis' instead. I've googled a bit and it seems the only possible replacements are in the US, which...

LOL I had noticed, and told myself "wow, it looked horrible back then, that hasn't changed a bit!" :)

Nice still, did you use a bench PSU or some other one?

Does anyone know if the logic board connector (male part) is easily available? I'm thinking of using the mobo with a RGB2HDMI and a +5V supply just by itself... AFAIK I don't need any 12V for the logic board (?)

I don't know if this help, or not, but I wrote a replacement to Synergy a few years ago. Didn't try to replace it /all/ just make something lighweight that worked between my mac and linux box. I haven't used it in a while now as I converted to Linux for the desktop these days, but I used it for...
