anybody remember if a Gold Card 2 (The red one) needs more than bridging the 7805 to make it work with a backplane? I remember reading on my Q-plane documentation (That I do not have anymore) that it needed more work than that Phoebus You need also to disconnect a diode and a resistor, and add a wire link, otherwise the backup clock will not work. These components are located on Gold Card's PCB. I assume this is because Qplane does not link all the expansion socket connections? Mplane does, so I assume it is OK? I don't know Mplane's details, whatever these modifications are required for getting GC fully working at 5 Volt regardles of expansion type socket's you use. Remember to bridge 7805 regulator.

Re: [ql-users] QXL 2 question
I think you will find that the QXL requires all the sockets to be filled. The chips are arranged in 2 banks. Derek - Original Message - From: Phoebus R.

That's what I remembered, although it makes really no difference now as I think I solved my Aurora/SGC problem :-) It is good to know however. Phoebus ___ QL-Users Mailing List
