Um, bows head in shame, The last time I did any coding was about 2 months ago. Its a nightmare trying to get some time in between doing up the kitchen, and work. I did manage to incorporate Aley's US keyboard code and BIOS printer support (which doesn't work yet) into version 0.79 (unreleased). I'll try to get it out as soon as possible. > Any chance of Hard Drive emulation ??? Do you mean ATOM emulation? I did talk to Edward about this. The IDE interface is more complicated than the FDI. He gave me the hardware specs, but what I really need is some documented assembly which accesses the basic operations. > Has anybody build SimCoupe/Xcoupe on Linux? > I've just started playing with Linux, and wanted to try the emulator, > but I cant get the X-Windows version to run properly, This display is > small and sort of wrong colour, as though the video memory is in the > wrong mode? The Last UNIX release I made was probably 0.72, which is pretty old. Unfortunately DOS versions are so fiddly to do I never got around to releasing a newer version. Hopefully with Simon taking up the challenge on a Win32 version I might be able to get back to the UNIX version. Back to your problem. Are you using a 16 or 24 bits per pixel display? SimCoupe works best with an 8bit display. It does have support for the higher display depths, but I'm not sure whether they work very well. At the time I only had access to machines with 8bit displays.
