VST 100 zip drive PowerBook 3400c — #6

Ah yes, ye olde Zip drive problem! I too, have a 3400c and 100mb Zip module and indeed it does work fine under OS 8.6 as you mentioned, - perhaps because the Iomega drivers origina…

Thanks for the link, I'll check it out. I've seen you quite a few times on csa2 as well. UNIX on the Apple II is something that people have been talking about for over 20 years…

Unix for 8-bit Apple — #18

I don't think that it does. I just read the manual last evening, and it looks like it's a bunch of BASIC scripts all tied together. It does have a task scheduler, though. Click …

VST 100 zip drive PowerBook 3400c — #4

Did you try a PRAM reset? That has worked wonders for me on occasion, though admittedly under 10.3 more than 9.2.2.

1200 language — #4

I have never dealt with a MP120 personally, but it does have a socketed ROM, meaning that you can pull it and replace the ROM chip with another from (ideally) a MP120 that had been…

VST 100 zip drive PowerBook 3400c — #3

The VST drivers are simply rebadged Iomega drivers which are loaded. Restarting into my 8.6 partition, see what that does.

Dumb question I know, but you have installed the Zip drivers, right? Also, I've never dealt with one of those VST drives before - do they need special drivers, or do they use the n…

I'm impressed. Especially on how nice the external case looks. I actually salvaged all the Indigo Blue parts from my old 350Mhz, and I'm thinking about polishing them up a bit. Som…

I don't think not programming for Contiki disqualifies you from commenting on its use. Anything about the (user perspective!) differences between 1.x and 2.x, using the UI or …

Unfortunately I don't have much to contribute... I haven't done any programming for Contiki. As far as using it goes, I'm running the 2.x version on the web server and I use 1.3 fo…

Maybe luddite could write a bit about his Contiki experiences for us, and explain the differences between the 1.x and 2.x branches. I recently read something about 2.x being focus…

I think the closest you'll come to something that works out of the box w/o a lot of work is Contiki. I don't have any experience with it, but some people around here do.
