Is a standard 7-pin DIN connector as used for MIDI


Midi?
Standard MIDI connector is 5 pin/180 degrees.


suitable for the QL
video socket? I want to make a composite video cable...


QL video socket is 8 pin.
For composite video, 3 pin DIN will be OK (uses only 2 pins), but for  
RGB, you need one pin in the centre for blue (vhich 7 pin DIN has not).

We've had a busy month! We received our alpha boards two weeks ago, and 
already have a desktop environment and hardware-accelerated 3d and video 
up and running. Work on the final board design is proceeding well. For

Yes, for a QL emulator...
I already have Genesi Efika Smartbook MX (ARM notebook) with Ubuntu  
10.10.

I tried to compile two Linux emulators.
Without succes. Maybe someone more experienced in Linux and C will  
know, what to do.

The real documentation  containing installation hints is now in
the 'docs' subdirectory. Yow will need gnu make, X and gcc to build
anything, make==gnu-make is assumed here.
Type
'make docs'

to build the documentation in dvi,info and html format - depending
on whatever formatting software is installed locally.
Texi2html is highly recommended for the online docs, you may get it
from
http://www.mathematik.uni-kl.de/~obachman/Texi2html/

View the documentation either by
'xdvi docs/uqlx'
or in (X)Emacs
c-u c-h i  docs/uqlx.info
or the html docs
$BROWSER docs/uqlx_toc.html'

If you do not have the necessary software to build the documentation  
files
or downloaded the package without documentation, the HTML version of  
the main

documentation can be found in the WWW at :
http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Bay/2602/uqlx_main.html

The file docs/ql.html contains a list of QL related internet starting  
points

plus some of my internet know-how.

Short instructions for building it:
on Linux:
./MK.all
make install
else
make config
make
make install

Looks like code mod time fortunately it's only in a couple of places despite 
the number of repeats:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3148244/static-declaration-follows-non-static-declaration

Essentially the older GCC compilers were more forgiving and now it isn't !!! 
;)
The new task master is punitive of our sloppiness.

Best of luck with the mod.

2011-08-28 Thread John Alexander
I'm all for the S/W emulation of the QL (good luck to those working on the 
rehash BTW!)
but shouldn't we be helping to promote it as a RaspberryPI and what it means in 
terms of educating newcomers. I'm sure many of us cut our teeth on various 
Sinclair kit it would be nice to get newcomers to learn with equipment and 
ideas that are current. To that aim I've already put together 70 ish projects 
that could be done with the 'PI (or anything similar actually ;) !!).  I'd 
appreciate more ideas, all ideas opinions welcome.

I can feed an LCD TV with a composite video signal, but it won't scan
15KHz RGB AFAIK... I'm just trying to work out the correct plug as I
found numerous different angle spacings of DIN socket, and am not sure
which ones'll line up so I can do the composite pins.
