Re: Contact to Metacomco (and Lattice!) because of their C Development Kit? (The Lattice C compiler)

Hi

Many years Earling sent me on my BBS, a copy of EJC, he seems happy for it release, but I do not have a copy of this information. But the link to Metacomco C caused legal problems.

Please forgive me for asking, but could not C68 be made to produce Reentrant code?

I think there is a better ...

Hi,

I remeber using Hans Lub's named Pipe, enhanced the Minerva pipe system, excellent piece of software.

I used it on the Pbox BBS system by Phil Borman.

Re: Q68 on QL Network


NET 5 My Mac mini Desktop PC connected via IPNet
and, finally, Net6, My MacBook, also via IPNet

There's also a vintage Dolch "lunchbox" that has a second QXL card, but that's currently ripped apart for a mainboard and display upgrade

(Not all of them are always in use, though, so I won't ...

Re: Q68 on QL Network

Hi Dilwyn

Great you have fixed the problem yourself.

The Q68 Network circuitry, is basically 2 wires. At the Q68 expansion port the QL Network signal splits to QL NET and +5v through a diode. The line is GND.

The Network connection at the Expansion port is a push on connector with no lock or ...

Re: Q68 on QL Network

Hi

I have downloaded the new ND driver.

I do not have a Gold card or Super Gold, I assumed that they would work.

The QL NET from Q68 to QLUB using QPC2, sQLux, uQLx, SMSQmulator, Q-EMulator all connect together and with a Tetroid TDI Trump Card.

I have not tried GC, SGC, QXL, maybe something I ...

The Network circuitry is on the form of a inline cable, which secured to the top case section. All the terminating resistor are shrink wrapped. Maybe the Network connector is not terminating the ...

Re: Q68 on QL Network

Hi Dilwyn

Looks like a problem with the Q68 network circuitry or driver.

But you said the Q68 acting as a server allowed network pass through.

This could indicate a software driver problem but also could hardware.

If you want to return the Q68 I will have a look at the internal Q68 circuitry.

Re: Q68 on QL Network

Hi Dilwyn,

I usually test each Q68 network, from a Trump Card QL to Q68 with the Q68 as a server.

I have not setup a multi-node network like yours, which I will do today.

Can you try, only 2 nodes on the network.
