    Interware Booster 30-SE50F Info Dump

    Thanks for the doc, super interesting. It looks like Apple is saying the "real & supported " PDS 68030 Direct Slot expansion interface for the IIsi, as documented in the IIsi Dev note, is the one on their official PDS "Direct Slot adapter card", they are basically saying the logic board...

    Interware Booster 30-SE50F Info Dump

    I thought there might be something like this! Wonderful indeed... Curious, perhaps dumb question, what is this "DC&D" doc? I think I will try your suggestion of removing the B2 pin from your IIsi Booster and testing again with the 3 Cache cards I have. I have to admit it's giving me an icky...

    MacIPRpi beta release 6.02

    Thanks! I had used the GUI to try to change the name: Pi menu -> Preferences -> Raspberry Pi Configuration - Change Hostname But looks like that only changes the 3rd one you list "/etc/hostname" Changed the other two and things look better!

    MacIPRpi beta release 6.02

    Will likely have to ask for for more detail on how to use that dbd utility when the time comes. ...yeah, wanting to print to an old LaserWriter is definitely not about modern practicality/utility, much like most of this site! I bought my 4/600 when I went to university in 1996, nostalgia is a...

    MacIPRpi beta release 6.02

    While the old pages are neat, I found it more useful to replace them with some links to services on the MacIPRpi and some links to retro sites: <HEADER> <TITLE>MacIPRpi</TITLE> </HEADER> <BODY> <H1>MacIPRpi</H1> <p> <b>Local:</b> <blockquote> <A...

    MacIPRpi beta release 6.02

    Thinking about the change away from "AppleDouble", this means I could not just rsync the contents from my old MacIPRpi v5.02, running netatalk 2.x, to a new one with v6.02, running netatalk 4.x, correct? The HFS resource forks are encoded in a different, incompatible way? Would he best thing...

    MacIPRpi beta release 6.02

    I got it working too via the MacIPRpi 6.02 beta with my Apple LaserWriter 4/600 PS. Download https://www.emaculation.com/pap_tkaiser_v0.1.4.tgz Extract files, move “pap” file to: /usr/lib/cups/backend/ chown it to root:root Execute pap with no arguments Look for my AppleTalk printer URL...

    But could it be the end of printing from a modern computer to an AppleTalk only Printer?

    MacIPRpi beta release 6.02

    Oh jeez! this of course got me thinking when CUPS 2.0 may no longer be supported. Found this: https://github.com/OpenPrinting/cups/issues/400 "That said, given the history of CUPS packaging on enterprise-oriented Linux distributions, I suspect you will still see CUPS 2.x in use until at least...

    MacIPRpi beta release 6.02

    There are two use cases here: 1) Using the Rpi to enable an old Mac to print to a modern printer Old Mac-> AppleTalk pap print job -> Rpi server -> IP CUPS print job > Modern printer 2) Using the Rpi to enable a modern computer to print to an old AppleTalk only printer Modern computer -> IP...

    MacIPRpi beta release 6.02

    Yes I did, it was not plug'n'play. I documented what I did back in 2021 in this post: https://68kmla.org/bb/index.php?threads/the-macippi-rpi-the-macippi-concept-for-raspberry-pi.36906/post-429834 I have not done this on the new MacIPRpi beta release 6.02 as of yet, I had been thinking there...

    MacIPRpi beta release 6.02

    This worked for me with MacIPRpi beta release 6.02. Took me a minute to find the papd.conf file, it was under /user/local/etc/, just uncommented the last line: macipgw@maciprpi6:/ $ cat /usr/local/etc/papd.conf # PAP print server daemon configuration (Netatalk 2.x) # # See the `papd.conf'...

    MacIPRpi beta release 6.02

    I just enabled the VNC service via "RPi Menu/Prefences/Raspberry Pi Configuration". I then used Real VNC on my Mac to connect, but still can't launch Chromium via the menu bar Web browser icon or "RPi Menu/Internet/Chromium Web Browser". Just tried it from the command line and got...

    MacIPRpi beta release 6.02

    So, I have it up and running on a spare RPi 4, connected to file sharing okay, but haven't done much else testing yet. One thing I noticed it I can't get Chromium to launch from the desktop, Firefox works though. I have my current MacIPRpi 5 Pi configured as a CUPS print server for my AppleTalk...

    Found the 50MHz bus switch on Alchemy (5400/6400)

    I think these Norton System Info v5 Benchmarks are pretty interesting: All tests done in a Performa 6360/160 chassis (including with the 6500/225 board), same 64MB EDO DIMM installed on the logic boards and booted from the same Mac OS 8.6 install on a 160GB PATA HD. My takeaways: Going from...

    Found the 50MHz bus switch on Alchemy (5400/6400)

    Finally got the time to work on this with a Performa 6360/160. Did the 50MHz clock crystal oscillator swap, and the bus speed memory timing resistor changes. Thought I'd give it a go leaving the CPU multiplier unchanged at 4x, meaning overclocking the CPU to 200MHz, it chimed but perhaps...
