The Sinclair QL Forum

Hi
Don't know much about pistorm on Amiga but it's possible that the kickrom and disk image here https://www.qlforum.co.uk/download/file.php?id=7347 would work to get qdos classic going. No idea if the qubide disk image would work with hdf2emu68 though.

Hi tofro,

I can confirm that this works on QPC II 5.02 under Win 7 emulation within Whisky on a 14-inch 2021 M1 MacBook Pro running MacOS Sonoma 14.4.1

Many Thanks!

Hi Jbizzel, Yes, a really good read. I remember a couple of years ago falling foul of the Catch 22 zip issue that you mention. I believe it was this Zip as a Basic program that initially came in handy. It caught me by surprise to see my spinning head from the QL World competition in the demo section...

As a footnote I should add...

CTRL-Space is ignored on Android, so I have mapped in ALT-Space as a break combination.

And on other Android devices, you can download and install RetroArch from the Play Store then start from step 3.

Hi all This is a walk-through of how to run QDOS on a "Chromecast with Google TV". In this setup, I make use of the Amiga (PUAE) emulator within RetroArch and a QDOS Classic kickstart ROM for UAE. Setup is quite a lengthy process, so I thought it was worth documenting. These are the steps:...

Thanks all, I got past the DOSBox_Wii error with QPC1 by adding this to dosbox.conf ems=false xms=false However after a long delay SMSQ/E hangs mid-way through drawing the initial screen. Maybe the Wii isn't as good as an Android tablet when handling double emulation, i.e. emulating a x86 emulating ...

Hi Martyn, I haven't tried anything involving the pointer environment, so I'm not sure how that will react. Look forward to any feedback. I had hoped to also show QPC1 running on top of DOSBox_Wii. However QPC exits at initialisation with the error /INT15 fehlt oder ist <1 MB! which is a shame. A qu...

Hi all This is a walk-through of how to run QDOS on a Nintendo Wii. Hopefully its of interest and hopefully I haven't forgotten anything. These are the steps: 1. Get the MAC address of the Wii 2. Install Homebrew. Note, this is not risk free . 3. Install UAE Wii and QDOS Classic If you already have ...

Hi, No worries. Splitting the font file into two makes the font more accessble. I believe 963 bytes is the size of the zip file. When unzipped the font is 2306 bytes. Yes, it's a while ago but I remember modifying the 8x8 font to fit the QL font size. Also the PET graphic characters are meant to but...

I'm on v1.05, how do I check if I have an affected system?
What are the symptoms?

Thanks
