Interesting, thanks for the feedback. Have you tried only replacing
one item?

Speaking of core, I released a new core yesterday. It improves QL
speed simulation (by Daniele) and updates to latest upstream code.

Hello all,

I just wanted to say that I now happily use the latest Ql core after
replacing both the card and memory module!

OK.. so memtest reports no error. So I blame the bug in the fpga
(known issue on this board). I have ordered a new one, now! I hope it
will bring me luck and happy QLing. :)

What maximum frequency does the RAM test core detect?


150

The oldest core you have on your website works. Reading the change log it
looks like "adding support for v2" is the problem.

I think bought,  but I got the main board for free together with the ram
module. It is v1.

Where can I see the frequency?

I ordered a new sdram yesterday.

SDRAM v3.1U 32 MB   160 MHz Alliancenope video garbled
SDRAM v3.x  128 MB  140 MHz Alliance**  works*
extra slim

* boots after 4 or five resets or using a other core first

Ok. I am running RAM test now. The minimig core is working just fine and
uses a lot of RAM ..

But that core runs the sdram slower.  Could it be a sdram error?

strange picture, it's missing the garbled ROM background

try again with setting RAM to 896 K

[Michael Grunditz via Ql-Users]

Hi,

I have problems with the Ql core for mister.

With minerva rom i get this screen:

http://www.update.uu.se/~micken/qlcore.jpg

With js rom I get a white screen.

Osd menus works in both cases.

I might have a bug in the fpga,  but not sure if it is that .

The "official" core works just fine.
