Maybe check that and see what progress or work around. It seems to only affect serial.io from what I understand. So I’m sure it’s need fixed by now. Well, hoping it has been

Otherwise I guess a newer pi by 1 generation is needed.

I suspect nabud would compile but you’ll miss the features of RetroNET and new stuff that get added often. Since I’m throwing a pi in mine I should really finish the IA Control binary lol. I announced I was doing it 4 months ago and haven’t worked on it since. That’s what the other guys are calling “headless”. I just didn’t finish it because it wasn’t a priority for me hehe

DJ Sures wrote: ↑Wed May 10, 2023 10:28 pm Oh that’s good to hear. I usually wouldn’t suggest to revive such an old hardware. But ever since I released the internet adapter to the retro world, I’ve been bombarded with ppl complaining it doesn’t work on windows xp. Or some weird Linux distro that no one else has heard of. Or Beos. Or Mac system 7.

Lol so I kind of go with the flow now

I may even get industrious and hook up a GPIO button to do it or do it programmatically, will have to see how I go!

oh that's a neat idea to use gpio!
