Re: QL replica

<> The Qzero has dual SDRAM onboard, allowing more than 100% speed increase in 1024x768 highcolor mode over the Q68. A new Q68 could re-use this hardware, either by Qzero as a module (faster development) or an all-in-one PCB (cheaper). I diverted to the QIMSI project for a while. But if interest in...

Re: Q68 Emulate original QL Keyboard

But sQLux skips the entire F1/F2 prompt on startup, Min4Q68 does not.
It does not, it just runs it so fast that you don't see it. (this is true of uqlx too).

Was my fix for a very similar problem under emulation.

During boot d1 is compared for an expected value, if its not found it reboots without RAMTOP set and finds all the memory, and not just what its supposed to.

Re: Q68 Emulate original QL Keyboard

The hardware reset by magic word access to $1C024 resets both the CPU and all peripherals except the CP2200. I am curious whether this does preserve the 68000 registers or not. If not, it won't be possible to do a full hardware reset with CALL 390 because it expects a magic word in register A5 and ...

Use the filesystem type in sqlux.ini as qdos-like.

That enables filename translations on the fly!

Re: Possible QL Is 40 event, UK

There has been a resurgence of interest in the QL in recent years - QL Forum has over 1,000 members now, and the Sinclair QL For Everyone group on Facebook has 1.6K members. I would take those figures with a touch of salt though, Facebook like Twitter before it is famous for being mostly bot accoun...
