The Sinclair QL Forum

What could be of interest in this context is the mem_ device driver which is part of the DIY toolkit (in the v_n section) - That allows you (amongst some really "magic" (or is it dubious?) other stuff) to PEEK and POKE into a remote machine's memory over QLAN (George Gwilt's NET_PEEK does...

I just get Not found. What driver do you load?

So now we have Nasta, Wolfgang, Jan, Tobias, Stephan, Oliver, Fabrizio, Urs, Markus, Detlef, Diane, Per (likely), Graeme (possible), myself ... I'm sure I forgot someone. And these are only the well known names... I suspect this will become the most high-carat meeting in two decades :D Include me o...

Still thinking about it..

Hi Stephen, I just tested under the new sQLux64 on Windows ;) Slight error on line 140: 140 x=1: y=2: of0=0: of1=50: of2=90: ct=0: steps=1: pze=10: p=8 Should be 140 x=1: y=2: off0=0: off1=50: of2=90: ct=0: steps=1: pze=10: p=8 (you misspelt offx as ofx) Not my kinda game, but still fun to see what ...

<> Have you got sound enabled in sqlux.ini? What happens if you enter beep 0,100 <> No, sorry. Hadnt got round to reading the manual at that time :? Sound was NOT enabled. It buzzes as promised. The file above works fine, sound an' all, despite Defender's protests :) Now to get better acquainted..

Windows Defender barfs at the file above saying it contains a Trojan called Win32/Wacatac.B!ml. Whats going on?
sQLux_w64 seems to work fine on my W11 laptop. No buzzing..

Hi Derek,

The splitter I got from you when I bought the Q68, and the mouse and keyboard are Perixx PERIBOARD-409P Mini Wired Keyboard - PS2 Interface and Perixx PERIMICE-201PII B, Wired PS2 Optical Mouse - 3 Button - 1000dpi Resolution - 1.8m Cable, which you recommended, IIRC.

Rotating the Scroll Wheel does nothing, unlike QPAC2 or SMSQMulator with same version of SMSQ/E. I will ask Wolfgang to look at this.

When the mouse is properly initialised (which is most of the time) scrolling with the scroll wheel works fine here. Its not an SMSQ/E v3.39 thing..

HI Per, What version of Q68 ROM Loader is installed, this can be found by removing the SD Card from SD Card Slot 1, which will stop at the loader screen, saying it can not find a valid SDHC Card. Your Q68 was manufactured in Batch 2, which was not part of the problem with Minerva4Q68 on Batch 4 V1....
