Oh and you should be able to set the various terminal properties in inittab

so you can do

getty /dev/tty1 38400 vt52 40 25

(the speed will get ignored for a console obviously)

The use of '/' as a switch is a DOS thing. Unixlike OS's use '-'. So stty -h would have been the thing to try. Control-S/Q will eventually do flow control if xon/xoff is enabled. Right now that's not implemented at all (RTS/CTS is for a few serial ports). The CFX-II video will also at some point mag...

What does

printenv

and

stty -a

show

I suspect it's just a good old fashioned bug so I'll try and test it on my Memotech when I get a moment.

TERM=vt52 export TERM (will work nicely for the 40 col screen, the 'real' 80 col display but not yet the propellor one) You can also set the screen size with stty cols 80 stty rows 25 or similar. If it still misbehaves please let me know. I'd expect the adventure games to 'just work' on the 40 colum...

Easiest way

type

/usr/games/whatever

I've not uploaded a new one yet

I will do when I get a bit of time.

I think you'll have rather more luck with the emulator than finding actually hardware - especially floppy disk hardware ! At least unless you have a very large budget. memu can emulate the serial port although it would need a little bit of hacking in dart.c to make it open a socket to irata instead....

The VDP: ??? is a bit odd - is that repeatable and just a bug in your memu or something else I wonder. With the real machine it seems to detect reliably and also with the older Memu I am running ? I've updated the image again. It now tries to do a few other things like detect and use the MTXplus tur...

@Dave: Mem and Swap blocks are 1Kbyte Thanks Alan, I seem to be missing some memory. On boot, my system shows 384k Total RAM, with 336k "available to processes" I have a 64K MTX with one of Andy's memory cards installed. With the 64-512 PROM installed on the memory card and all jumpers set, there s...
