It probably isn't too hard to fit a gumstix board in a 2x4 brick. Then you plug another 2x4 ontop as a games cartridge, and connect it up to a base plate containing an LCD screen. 2010-03-11T12:06:28Z Jeffrey Lee (Phlamethrower) http://iconbar.com/forums/viewthread.php?threadid=11341&page=2#113661 Yes because Lego would certainly be willing to sign a license for the development of a RISC OS game imagine all the sales they'd be missing out on if they didn't! 2010-03-11T11:43:15Z Peter Howkins (flibble) http://iconbar.com/forums/viewthread.php?threadid=11341&page=2#113660 Rather than suing you, they might want to add it to their list. And if not, there's always the possibility of XTHOPAC STUARC in Lego. 2010-03-11T11:34:02Z Trevor Johnson (trevj) http://iconbar.com/forums/viewthread.php?threadid=11341&page=2#113659 Well I can code, but I CBA writing a game for RISC OS, and certainly not one that'll get me sued by Lego 2010-03-11T11:10:21Z Peter Howkins (flibble) http://iconbar.com/forums/viewthread.php?threadid=11342&page=2#113658 Yes, the A9 Home. There is a bug in the PS/2 driver that means a race condition can be tickled with certain pairs of devices. Swapping them over sometimes solves this. PS/2 ports being tied to one of keyboard or mouse is entirely an OS problem, not a hardware one. RISC OS is quite happy to have the keyboard and mouse in any PS/2 socket. 2010-03-10T21:33:17Z Rob Kendrick (nunfetishist) http://iconbar.com/forums/viewthread.php?threadid=11341&page=2#113657 If you can code we can make a LEGO RISC OS shmup game. Otherwise you'll have to wait until I finish my C for dummies book and most likely add a couple of years. 2010-03-10T21:27:02Z van Engelen Thomas (highlandcattle) http://iconbar.com/forums/viewthread.php?threadid=11365&page=1#113656 Have you tried the alternative CDFS Soft ATAPI driver 3.7, as it's only 5k in size? 2010-03-10T21:21:39Z Blind Moose (Acornut) http://iconbar.com/forums/viewthread.php?threadid=11365&page=1#113655 Actually, I think the idea was that you split the zip file itself into two parts. You wouldn't lose anything that way (but you'd have to remember to set its filetype to &DDC at the RiscPC end). 2010-03-10T20:13:44Z Martin Bazley (swirlythingy) http://iconbar.com/forums/viewthread.php?threadid=11365&page=1#113654 Yes, but you see what is the prob. I can't use my RISC pc to read the CD. If I could read it i wouldn't even need to produce floppies. (In fact i may not even needed an upgrade). So i am stuck with 1.44 and windows or linux... And that's why i am wondering for whom are these zip files usefull (maybe people with 2 acorn pcs, one with CD support and one with floppies only)? 2010-03-10T18:44:18Z Evris (35HasNoEdit) http://iconbar.com/forums/viewthread.php?threadid=11342&page=2#113653 Really? Do you have a single example? PS/2 ports are assigned specific uses, so in general you can't swap them anyway. 2010-03-10T16:53:19Z Peter Naulls (pnaulls)
