Hi,

Thanks for the help, I think there is problems with the QXL board, using SMSQ/E v3.38 starts up okay, but keyboard is not working.

There must be something wrong with the QXL Card.

Strange that v3.05 works perfectly.

Hi

I may of asked this before, but I have a QXL 2 running at 25Mhz which works well with SMSQ v2.76 and SMSQ/E v3.05

If I use any version of SMSQ/E above v3.05 the keyboard does not work.

Can anybody with a QXL confirm if the lastest version of SMSQ/E works with the QXL?

Hi Martin, I am just trying accommodate the suppose Disk Drive expansion card. Since I have had no information about this, I will put this to one side. I personally would keep the current configuation with a large case, the QL Net and I2C on top, on the Rear End Plates. In the current case the QL Ne...

Hi, With regards to connections like Power Input could placed at the back, but the Audio Out, which connects to a amplified speakers or headphones, would this not be better at the front. Until I see the sort of expansion, I can not judge which is the best option. I will need this information, soon, ...

That would be had, as I did not keep a log of the changes. Do not worry, if there is a negative reaction to my release of Copyrigh...

Hi, I have been looking at the books on WOS, they have done a good job in scanning and indexing them, pity there was not much attention paid to the quality of the scans. All the books are PDF image files, no text layer on in the PDF file, some books are scanned with 2 pages per page, the black edges...

Here is a very rough re-organisation fo the location of the Q68 PCB in the Case to an upper location, with room for a expansion board below. The Power Input could be moved to to the back?

Hi Dave, The cases have slots to support the Q68 PCB, which in the current case the Q68 is in the bottom slot. I can change the location of the Q68 board to suit. If an expansion board is located in the bottom slot and the Q68 above the expansion board, how much head room for the expansion board is ...

Here is a CAD representation of the current Q68 End Plates and the proposed larger Panels: Q68_Panel_Comparison.png The is 15mm height increase to accommodate the QL Network and i2C on the Back Panel. The new case is dimensional the same size, except for an increase in 15mm of height. The new panels...
