09:17 PM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support
OK, have to call it a day for today. I'll put up v3 with the latest anyway, though I suspect not much really helped y... foft
09:15 PM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support
OK, can reproduce the same results in the linux sim... Which is good. So its not a missed byte swap (there is no byte... foft
09:05 PM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support
Yeah I wired status up right after building atxv2. I am getting back 0xf7 though. Its not finding the sector in the l... foft
08:33 PM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support
OK, little better. Now getting 247 on 19,20,... and 28,32. Investigating why the status is not 239 now. foft
08:26 PM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support
I think the first few errors may be related to the bug 74 you raised.
I do see failure on those sectors though I w...

If it’s that broken I wonder why air strike, Bruce Lee and lode runner work.
I’ll try that tool...

An aside, but noticed I seem to have a bunch of hexdumps still in this code. Better remove them since I'm sure they t... foft
09:51 PM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support
Nope, still seems to hang on most things. Hmmm. foft
09:50 PM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support
Trying to hook up sector status to 0x53 to see if that helps foft
09:34 PM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support
Fixed that and put it up as atxv2.
Load a bit quicker, but still only a few things seems to work (baker street and...

09:09 PM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support
Seems that it was just a + vs - issue when calculating the wait on rotation. Doh. foft
06:31 PM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support
I think something might be wrong with track step or something. Since its loads slow, slow slow, then occasional fast.... foft
06:30 PM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support
I've put the rpd there now. foft
07:51 AM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support
Oh, forgot to copy that! Will do that this evening.
I was thinking a test suite would be great. On an atx that boo...

Farb, I've put the latest test version here. Can you give it a try please since you are more familiar with how the be... foft
08:44 PM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support
Added byte swapping and changed the wait_us delays to be in us. For some reason wait_us(3.22*1000) was hanging rather... foft

Looks an an endian issue. I see AT8X ok, then version is 256... foft

09:33 PM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support
If I comment loadAtxSector it does not hang, so must be something stuck in a loop in there. Will instrument and print... foft
09:27 PM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support
Now the core is working again in general: USB, atr, xex. I can insert atx disks, but they fail to load - firmware han... foft

10:03 PM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support
I got the core building but I've broken it enough that usb no longer works... ooops, will have to debug another day. foft
10:02 PM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support
There are the default (original) sdrive delays in us iirc. If an ack is sent too soon it can arrive before the sio co... foft
09:46 PM EclaireXL Feature #73: Implement ATX disk image support

10:05 PM EclaireXL Bug #48 (Closed): CORE13 - Veronica BASIC not working
Closed. Working fine with my Veronica clone and no feedback received from tester. foft
10:02 PM EclaireXL Feature #3 (New): High resolution antic support
Paused until anyone uses it. If it starts getting used I might fix the offsets... foft
10:01 PM EclaireXL Bug #25 (New): F10 Hard Reset Ignore inserted cartridge (Core v7)

10:01 PM EclaireXL Bug #64 (Closed): Pokey pdm timing incorrect
Found the issue when doing the pokeymax work - I'd lost some changes by accident. foft
10:00 PM EclaireXL Feature #72 (Closed): Implement stock Atari 400 mode
OK, so for all intents and purposes I think its the same. At least until we add the split bus for the 800... I added ... foft

Great! Going to close this until I decide to add 2 bus support or you find a bug in it:-)
I mean the profiles. The...

Did you load the original OS B or use the one off the jic? I think the one I included on the jic is patched. I should... foft
07:46 AM EclaireXL Feature #68: Implement stock Atari 800 mode
I’d better wire up the atx code so I can try it myself:) foft

09:48 PM EclaireXL Feature #68: Implement stock Atari 800 mode
Fixed the beep on reset. Will build as v26. Not sure whether floating data bus if worth it. Looks like it wasn't even... foft
09:23 PM EclaireXL Feature #68: Implement stock Atari 800 mode
That worked... Now for that horrible beep on reset. foft
09:17 PM EclaireXL Feature #68: Implement stock Atari 800 mode
This is due to a brk being hit when it jumps to the cart to initialize it. Making the bus 0xff when no ram present wh... foft

Got signal tap on it. Gets part way through booting then hangs at address 000c. This is after memory detection itself... foft

08:41 AM EclaireXL Feature #68: Implement stock Atari 800 mode
Tried the salt xex. If I boot it on 48k, then change ram to 16k/32k it returns the expected results. i.e. ram test pa... foft

10:12 PM EclaireXL Feature #68: Implement stock Atari 800 mode
Built as v25 anyway in case anyone wants to play, but definitely more to do on this... foft
09:48 PM EclaireXL Feature #68: Implement stock Atari 800 mode
Squashed several bugs, but struggling with 16k and 32k mode for some reason, not booting. foft

Got it booting again after a few small bug fixes.
Some reset issues on the 800... and it fails the XL banking acid...

08:57 PM EclaireXL Feature #68 (In Progress): Implement stock Atari 800 mode
Added Atari800 mode.
Ram selection dialog changed to system. Pressing fire toggles 800/xl/xe.
