    Farallon ETHERMAC LC NSC w/NuBus drivers in the SE/30 PDS?

    That's interesting. As Gorgonops mentioned earlier in thread: That stuff is *electrically* going to conflict with any other PDS device you try to put there.   Perhaps that's what you're seeing on the main monitor. Not sure if I understood all the permutations you tried, but did you try...

    Farallon ETHERMAC LC NSC w/NuBus drivers in the SE/30 PDS?

    Looks like 1996 according to JDW's Flickr photo. Dunno about the rest!

    Farallon ETHERMAC LC NSC w/NuBus drivers in the SE/30 PDS?

    Could be jumper is used with (2 years newer) IIsi and ignored on SE/30, since reasonable assumption circa 1991-92 would have been nobody installs a second PDS card on SE/30 due to physical constraints. There weren’t other PDS cards on the market at the time that had vertical slots or the MacCon...

    Fun with colour on my SE/30

    This looks fantastic @ants - you're doing an amazing job with your SE/30 projects, its very inspiring! Would love to get my hands on a curved resin screen and try this myself  :) @PB145B as far as video cards, since the controller board supports 66Hz, your best bet would be a Radius IIsi Color...

    Help identifying Lapis PDS card.

    No idea about 15-pin compatibility, my guess is it'd be same as other non-15pin ones as far as output res & compatibility. The ProColorServer 24 is 15-pin and works fine outputting to an LCD.

    Help identifying Lapis PDS card.

    Not the same but similar is this one on eBay: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F132580730811 I have the procolorserver 24 (I believe) for LC, has similar parts. Agree yours could be the 8. Look at my gallery to compare

    SE/30: RAM configuration with 16MB SIMMs

    I'm not sure about ROMinator solutions. I have one that no longer works in SE/30 (but fine in Iici) and another that works fine. As far as RAM in Bank A, I'd assume regardless of having an accelerator (socketed or pds) or being stock, 4 x 16mb in Bank A alone is not going to work. Only 4 x 1mb...

    SE/30: RAM configuration with 16MB SIMMs

    I use Dougg3/BMOW ROMinator based on IIsi ROM with my machine along with the stock se/30 ROM and both work fine. I use OWC's 16mb chips. Apologies, looking at my notes just using Bank A with 64MB won't work according to a table I copied from this page. However with Bank B filled with anything...

    SE/30: RAM configuration with 16MB SIMMs

    Yes, I have 64mb in bank A in my se/30 and the configuration works. Worked with both DiiMo & Daystar PDS-based accelerators, haven't tried socketed yet. EDIT: I am wrong, you need to have Bank B filled with something for Bank A to use 16x4 (64mb)

    Interware device software

    インタウェア is katakana (Japanese loan word characters) for “interware” since that’s a compound loan word from English (inter + ware). Phonetically “intauēa”. Could be fruitful to use the katakana in search tho.  There’s a few members based in Japan like jdw who might be able to help with leads or...

    Development of Nubus graphics card outputting to HDMI?

    I was the one that picked up the 24bit LC Lapis ProColorServer on eBay recently. Let me know if you need to know anything about it. It works, I just can't get the extension to load.

    Development of Nubus graphics card outputting to HDMI?

    To be honest, once you get to higher resolutions I think the classic MacOS experience degrades quite a bit, especially what can be powered by nubus/68k machines. Lots of picking the mouse up multiple times to get across the screen, and many apps/games either not being designed for those...

    Fun with colour on my SE/30

    Love this project, been wanting to do this exact thing myself. Can you link to where you got parts? Looks like those LCDs go for $160+ on ebay. I was looking at doing this with Adafruit's 9.7" display (basically the iPad Retina display), since 2048x1536 would be high enough res to be able to...

    Carrera040 Info / Hacking Thread

    Odd, I've never seen that variant of the Carrera 040 IIsi adapter. Both of mine (one which came with DiiMo IIsi and other with Carrera 040) have a GAL on them, I assume that one in your picture must have it on the other side. You're right that their IIcx adapter has none at all.

    China Ebay 68040 processor

    Yep that looks like a rebadge, the lettering is way too big. The printing varies in these so it's not clear what is / is not real. Here's a legit Motorola 68040 L88M for reference. Runs cool as a cucumber.

    Mystic with LC video card

    I have my answer: yes it is possible to use an LC video card in a mystic. Thanks 3-years-ago @pcamen.  Next step is to figure out whether I can get a Dual PDS solution going for IIe card + video card mystic:

    Dual / Multi LC PDS slot

    Anyone ever try doubling up on LC PDS cards? Would they just work if stacked?   There have been multi-LC PDS solutions in the past, specifically MicroQue's TopHat which supported 4 LC PDS cards in a weird thick LC basement case. See my gallery here of images of that. What's interesting is in...

    Mystic with LC video card

    I have a mystic (575 board) color classic and just acquired a rather large LC video card called the Lapis ProColorServer 24 LC. It's physically much bigger than I expected, to the point where it gets in the way of the 575 board's VRAM.  I could probably make this physically fit by building a...

    Color video from SE/30 for cheap?

    What's the benefit of composite video in all this? Is it to grab the signal from the video card / AB?  @Trash80toHP_Mini the raspberry pi hat I linked to can do HDMI in if you need to capture signal for recording. That's what the guy in the video was doing (tho he was then piping that vid...
