Stopping the NVRAM TOD clock

by rescue＠hawkmountain.net

I've used the following references: http://www.squirrel.com/squirrel/sun-nvram-hostid.faq http://ftp.rodents-montreal.org/mouse/docs/Sun/nvram/stop-the-clock While doing some clean up, I found my notes where I figured out how to stop the time of day clock on a 6X0MP system @ open boot prom: f1201000 f o map-page 80 ff8 c! 80 ff9 c! 0 ff8 c! At the time I had done this, I could not find a source on the net on how to do this. I did some research, and based the above on Sun-4c instructions modified for the boot rom and the different addresses of the location of the NVRAM in memory, and the different position in that model of NVRAM used on the 6X0MP for the clock itself. I just did some searches now, and it looks like nobody indicated the above for the 6X0MP, but I found references to the above for the SS10 and SS20. Thought I'd pass this along. On one of the links it shows a one liner on stopping the TOD clock on an ss1000: 00280000 f Anyone know if that is all that is required, or is was this just identifying where it is in memory, but no specifics within the TOD clock memory on what to do ? Anyone have the mojo on stopping the TOD clock on: Ultra 1 Ultra 2 Ultra 60 Ultra 10 SparcServer 1000E Sunblade 1500 Sunblade 2000 ??? Thanks, -- Curt

Looking for historical info on the Soviet UM1-NKh

by steve＠tronola.com

Hi Folks, I've been searching for historical info on the Soviet UM-1 or UM1-NKh, which some have claimed to be the "first" minicomputer. (Of course, that has little meaning without a careful definition of terms.) So far, I've only uncovered a little approximate info about it, including: - Approved for production in 1962 - 13-bit word - 8000 transistors - 150-lbs - 100 Watts (!) - The UM-1 was an earlier (military?) model but it's not clear if it was manufactured. The key info that I'm looking for includes: - Date of first production shipment - Amount of RAM - Memory cycle time - Approximate price (whatever that meant in the USSR) Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Steve Lafferty http://tronola.com

Searching for game items related to PDP-11 and Rainbow

by ceforman＠sbcglobal.net

Hi, everyone.? Jim Leonard (Trixter) referred me to this list. I'm lookingfor PDP-11 items related to the Advent / Colossal Cave adventure game, and the Dungeon / Zork game developed at MIT.? Anything related to them -- source code printouts, any documentation, etc.? For Dungeon / Zork, there was an official version sold by the creators that included a manual and map along with the original media.? If you have that you can pretty much name your price and I'll pay it. I'm also looking for the November 1982 issue of DEC Professional magazine, which included a hand-drawn map of the game, and any boxed software for the DEC II or DEC Rainbow computers. Thanks for your time.

Looking for HP 4951C cable

by charlesmorris800＠centurytel.net

I recently got a deal on an '80's HP protocol analyzer - really handy when you're trying to get a terminal to talk to a PDP-8 or -11, among other things :) But I need the cable that connects the interface pod to the analyzer. It's a straight 37 pin D-size I think... not sure if shielded, twisted pair or what's inside. Probably not fancy since the 4951C only goes to 19.2 kbps. I could make one from ribbon cable and IDC connectors, but would rather have an original. Anyone got a spare? thanks Charles ps already posted request on HP group ;)

ISO SMS FW drivers

by shadoooo＠gmail.com

Hello Al, I have an interface like this, and an attached working hard disk that boots RT11. I don't have an original floppy disk with drivers or tools, I'm searching for it too, but some time ago I did a copy of the hard disk content, thus also of the drivers for the interface. I'll be glad to send / upload an RT11 floppy image for SIMH including these files. Furthermore a guy an year ago contacted me about drivers for SMS (I posted a message searching for manuals at the time); he had a copy of manuals and ROM onboard with latest version. I can provide a copy of all of this. Let me know how I can send you the files. Andrea
