I guess someone should check on q68 and see if this is an smsqe issue! Works perfectly in Q68, SMSQ/E v3.39, DISP_MODE 1, though goes very fast, had slow the Q68 down with SLUG 50 or more. But even though is using the same version of SMSQ/E is being used on the Q68, QL graphic modes, are very compa...

Re: CST Ram Plus eproms - CST QDisc v4 issue

I think the eprom sockets decode out as 32K chunks - so you can get 2 16K ROM images per 27256 Eprom. Not sure you'd be able to get ICE to work - I am sure I've read somewhere that it expects to be at 0C000 (ROM Socket) in the QL memory map and may not work if located elsewhere.

Re: QL-SD jumperable

Hi,

If there is any problems, I can also perform the task.

The QL-SD ROM PCB just need a 3 pin jumper soldered in and I have a an adapter to program the QL-SD firmware without soldering the the pin header to the QL-SD.
