Can the propeller work from a 62.6688Mhz clock? If so it's sampling can synchronised with the mac's pixel clock at four times.
Alternatively, can it not use a 78.336Mhz clock? So …
now my ADB ports don't seem to work at all, except for the power button on the keyboard. The Mac boots normally, but the keyboard and mouse aren't responsive. They both work fine w…

If there was a rotten cap in the mix it could have just drawn enough extra current to push it over from rotten to dead

the ADB jacks can handle more than anything you would want to shove in a mac electronics wise, so unless there is a physically broken plug the jack itself is not at fault, maybe s…

Did you follow the instructions on that site?
If you wanna go renegade, you can try soldering the mouse directly to the mobo? If you have like a dirty mouse or bad mouse of course…

I was afraid of that. The ADB-PS/2 adapter is for mice, specifically this:

So ummm...anyone have another IIcx mobo with a socketed processo…
I can. The issue is the strange frequency. Most microcontrollers and processors are made today to use a evenly divisible clock frequency. I want to use the Propeller because it hav…
I still don't understand why you simply can't source the clock off the Mac motherboard. If you don't want to solder to it use an alligator clip. I'm sure there's somewhere you can …

The RTClock / calendar / PRAM chip has its own 32KHz crystal. Everything else runs off the "16MHz" clock. If you don't care about serial baud rates, floppy read / write, or video s…
Does anyone still have these? I have 2 WGS95's with actual A/UX media, and would love to get Oracle for them. I'm more than willing to set up a FTP for this type of thing, if someo…
Well, if and when tiger loses modern browser support you still might want to get on the entire internet. A kvm is a great idea if you have the space for another machine and if so g…
Yeah, I know! I am excited, with the release of Snow Leopard we'll be seeing all kind of curb things. Some day PowerMac G5s!
But this machine is the cutoff for newworld machines …
You can always dualboot between tiger and leopard.

That makes no sense; then I might as well use a different system that boots OS 9 and a KVM or something ra…

The fan should not be loud. It sounds like the fan has become un-lubricated.

Anyway... lubricate the eMac fan, …
