JO 12:33 PM EclaireXL Feature #28: XEX boot loader replacement

Or a patched OS, where the BASIC is turned off by default (you need to press OPTION in order to have BASIC). This is how AtariMax's 32in1 OS works. jozsef

JO 11:19 AM EclaireXL Bug #35: When connecting ST Mouse to any JOY PORT on the expantion port, navigation on the EclairXL Settings menu not possible (Core8)

I have confirm this behavior with Core7 (but strangely not always). More to this: I have SIO2SD attached to Eclaire, and when I connect the mouse to Port1, I see the display of SIO2SD, and plugging the mouse has some effect on the SIO bus. jozsef

JO 05:04 PM EclaireXL Support #29 (Closed): LED for SIO activity

JO 05:08 PM EclaireXL Feature #26 (Closed): PS/2 keyboard

I've a PS2/2 keyboard with a PS2->USB adapter, which works fine on my PC and other HW emulators which has USB port, but not on Eclaire (FW7)

My bad: the card was NTSC formatted.
The old firmware reads "settings" too. Now I see the monitor recognizes the resolution/frequency, but I see a black screen only.
Reporting back, when my altera cable arrives from china. jozsef

The current firmware doesn't use this file. Need to order a cable to update the firmware. jozsef

- the vga connector produces 15KHz, of which the monitor doesn't support
- through the HDMI connector I see "No SIGNAL" on the monitor
All the three power leds are shining. jozsef
