Wanted: non-working HP-85 main board for ICs

Paul, I picked up Pete's unit, and the case is in good shape. Others have also asked for bits and pieces. But I also got an extra motherboard! I might now have enough to repair the two machines. If I can revive it, I'd like to keep it intact - I hate "killing" machines. If not I'll post here for the parts. Might take me a while as I have many other projects going. I also promised Pete I would repair his tape drive on his other working machine and convert it to QIC format in consideration for letting me have his dead machine. So I have a bit of work ahead of me now...

Many of you may remember that last year (and previous) Heron Point ran out of tables before we ran out of people and stuff to put on them. If anyone has one or more folding tables they don't mind lending to the show (you don't have to use it yourself,) we'd much appreciate you bringing it/them along. Put some masking tape with your name on it underneath to make sure you get the right one(s) back. I'll be bringing one 5' folding "banquet" table myself - this would be the ideal size but whatever you have will help. This will allow us to pack the two rooms most efficiently and expand comfortably out into the hallways. The more people and computers we can welcome to the show the better it will be. Extra network cables, power strips and extension cords will be handy as well. As for reservations, I have heard from a number of you but not all that I usually see there. If you'd like table space, let me know your requirements (in units of 2'x5' tables) and demo theme, if you'd like that listed, ASAP. We're going to be tight this year (and that's a good thing) so please give some thought to what you can fit into 1-2 tables worth of space, if possible. Thanks all and I'll see some of you at the 8/30 meeting. -j ------------------------------ Message: 11 Date: Thu, 07 Aug 2014 21:43:33 -0400 From: Steven Landon <slandon110 at gmail.com> To: cctalk at classiccmp.org Subject: FS:AmigaMini- Thin Client- The Dedicated Amiga Emulation machine Message-ID: <53E42B45.4020509 at gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed I started a project a a while back to come up with a nice way to run Amiga Emulation. Came up with a prototype recently based on an HP t5735 Thin client that has enough power to run the emulation smoothly. Finally got all the bugs worked out and I thought id sell some that I built up. I call it the Amiga Mini Specs are as follows HP T5735 Thin Client 1GB RAM, 1GB ATA Flash Disk, Holds Windows Embedded 16GB flash disk, Holds UAE and all other relevant files 8GB USB Flash Drive that mounts in workbench for easy file transfer. Over 1000 WHDLoad Games come preinstalled on the 16GB flash drive, Along with 500 Demos. AmigaForever is also included. Comes with ClassicWB 3.1 UAE installed and the system boots into Amiga Workbench 3.1, The cool part is it has Picasso emulation, so you get 32bit color at 1280x1024, Looks great. Boots right into Workbench 3.1 as soon as the system powers up. You can also configure UAE by just hitting the F12 button. Here is a youtube of the prototype http://youtu.be/HPRHPqXSgRs The internet is fully functional as well. So you can browse the web with AWeb, Chat on AmIRC with it. Transfer files via FTP or share files via SMB. Im asking $120 shipped anywhere in the USA. Good for peeps who want to see if they like the Amiga Platform, and its cheaper then finding a tricked out expanded amiga. I have 5 available, If there is demand for more I will build more of them. ------------------------------ Message: 12 Date: Thu, 7 Aug 2014 19:48:59 -0600 From: Eric Smith <spacewar at gmail.com> To: "General Discussion: On-Topic and Off-Topic Posts" <cctalk at classiccmp.org> Cc: "General Discussion: On-Topic Posts Only" <cctech at classiccmp.org> Subject: Re: looking for end screw mounted card guides Message-ID: <CAFrGgTR6+SwOyoUbiAzGM3Td_ZbBHv73KNjeQFGhUJiKs7X7MA at mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 On 8/5/14 5:36 PM, Eric Smith wrote: > I have an obscure mid-1970s machine, the Pacer, made by Product > Support Engineering (not AMC).

Does it require a > boot disk to do things other than BASIC, like a PC would? These were small business DP systems. Hardware-wise, the line included a desktop model, a deskside model, a shared hard-disk unit, several printers, a network option in the megabit range that utilized thick twinax cable and (iirc) a star topology, a serial communications (for a modem) option, and likely other things. Screens were high persistence green phosphor, with at least two intensities for text. I don't remember point addressable graphics. Keyboards were IBM-style buckling spring; as I recall the layout was slightly unique. Floppies were 8", fairly capacious, reasonably quick, quite reliable. Printers were big, fast, dot matrix, top mounted tractor feed. I think at least one model included a multi-pass NLQ mode. Draft mode was IBM-esque, with dotted zeros and an odd diagonal 'S' character. Construction is pure IBM, with reliability and serviceability in spades. I haven't seen electronic stuff online. I have paper docs for a couple of models and some of the options, as well as not-yet-imaged floppies containing diagnostics. I do intend to get them scanned/imaged eventually, I swear. Strong need and urgent pleas for specific things may add motivation. :) No boot disk is required. A fair amount of the available software was actually written in BASIC. At least a few utilities were compiled or assembled binaries, but as far as I recall, even those were not booted >from floppy. The BASIC is an extremely capable business type, with forms, file/disk handling, ISAM type functionality, etc. It was even possible to do serial communications over a modem with it reasonably well, other than some limitations in keyboard handling. I'm not sure if adding the network and remote disk added code on adapter cards to support those things, or if the support was in the base unit firmware. IBM offered the usual AR/AP/GL/Inventory/etc packages. I'm sure there was a word processing tool, though I can't seem to remember anything about it. There was an application generator tool called BRADS (business rapid application development system or thereabouts, I think). The "rapid" part was ironic; while it was certainly faster to build some sorts of simple applications with it than to write them from scratch, BRADS itself was pretty slow. I'm sure IBM had other offerings. I think I also recall seeing a directory of third-party applications, though for the life of me I don't recall anything about what was on offer. I don't believe there was a customer option to write code in anything other than BASIC. The weight of 90 lbs for the desktop unit is not a joke. Besides being built like an IBM product, those 8" floppy drives are stout, and constitute a significant chunk of the mass. I've not dug far enough into my desktop unit to read the markings on the CPU chip, but a few bits like register layout shown in the maintenance documentation match the 8085. I'm pretty sure these systems use a paged memory layout, at least for the firmware. It's the only way they could provide all the functionality that's in there.

It seems that those aren't cheap lately on the eBay. I also have a TRS-80 Model 12 that's been made a bit redundant by my Tandy 6000 project and the TRS-80 Model II that I have on the way. I've overhauled the keyboard with new foam pads, replaced the Rifa caps after one of them got a bit over-excited, fixed a shorted cap on one of the floppy drives, and other such stuff to make it work. It doesn't have the card cage option. Do y'all suppose that my Model 12 might be a fair trade for an original PC/AT system, if anybody was so inclined to make the trade? And if so, might there be anybody around southern California who would be interested in meeting up to make such a swap without the need to pack and ship either of the heavy, fragile beasts? -- Mark J.

Or are you using DMA somehow? Is this vtserver or >one of the TU58 things or something else? 115.2k isn't one of the >results of the retrocmp.com mod; is yours described anywhere? I am using a standard DL11-W for the TU-58 serial interface, but modified it to support a 115.2kb data rate. This means that for each incoming character the 11/34 has about 90usec or so to process it. More than enough time to read it from the DL11-W, store it in memory, manipulate some counters, etc. The XXDP TU58 driver can handle this, as it is not interrupt driven, it is polled. I haven't tried the RT-11 TU-58 driver at this rate, but it may have issues as I believe it is interrupt driven. It would be an interesting experiment. On the host side I am using my TU58EM program on a PC. It can easily handle the 115.2kb serial data rate. This is a standard 11/34A with MS11-L MOS memory array, no cache option. I have been using this configuration for a few weeks now and have seen no issues at all in loading and running XXDP diagnostics from this emulated TU58 device. My mod is not specifically described, but there is at least one web page out there that describes modding the DL11-W for higher baud rates. That page described the crystal and divider changes, but did not go as far as changing the UART to a newer version capable of 115.2Kb.

Stuff available in Wichita, KS

by cclist＠sydex.com

List: Just passing this along to any who might be interested. Shaun Halstead is interested in cleaning this out: StorageTek STK-2920 9-track, 6250bpi drives. We have 5 of these, at least one, possibly two, have 100ips boards installed. One may have a SCSI interface, the rest are STK interfaces. ExaByte EXB-8700 8mm, SCSI, worked when last used (2 years ago). Tandeberg Data 1200MB QIC drives, SCSI. We have two or three of these, all worked when last used (>5 years ago). Xerox-branded 9-track tape drives. 6250bpi. These are marked Laser Magnetic Storage International, BY36KL. I believe they are LMSI/CDC model 92181, Vertical mount streaming tape unit (per the maint. manual found at bitsavers.) I have at least 2, maybe 3 of these. One can't read it's own writing. Not sure what the interface is, beyond 2-cable. Could be pertec, could be STK, could be Xerox-custom. 3480 tape drives. One worked when last used, one is parts-only. Also, one of these had a SCSI interface, the other is STK. At least one, possibly more, Aviv Unibus tape interface boards. As I understand it, these boards required a backplane modification in the 11/34's to operate correctly. I have 3 PDP's with these boards currently installed, and at least one NOS on the shelf. Other, assorted gear: Bus & Tag cables and interface cards (ISA and PCI), with appropriate PC hardware and software for print serving. PDP11/34 with floppy/Winchester (8" floppy, unknown HDD), last ran >5 years ago. SMS-1000 w/ HDD, last run >5 years ago, needs software. Tapes. Lots of tapes. 9T 2400', 1200', 600'. Some QIC tapes in various capacities, a few 8mm. Never stored in garage/shed/attic. I have no idea of value, usefulness, or current operational condition of anything except the Cipher drive (dead). I can take pics of any/all if desired. Shipping or pickup would be from Wichita, Ks. Shaun Halstead Microfilm Services, Inc. Wichita, Ks (316) 269-2203

VCFMW: Call For Tables

by silent700＠gmail.com

There's a dual meaning in that subject header: I need to gather table reservations for the show but I'm also putting out a request for actual tables, too. Many of you may remember that last year (and previous) Heron Point ran out of tables before we ran out of people and stuff to put on them. If anyone has one or more folding tables they don't mind lending to the show (you don't have to use it yourself,) we'd much appreciate you bringing it/them along. Put some masking tape with your name on it underneath to make sure you get the right one(s) back. I'll be bringing one 5' folding "banquet" table myself - this would be the ideal size but whatever you have will help. This will allow us to pack the two rooms most efficiently and expand comfortably out into the hallways. The more people and computers we can welcome to the show the better it will be. Extra network cables, power strips and extension cords will be handy as well. As for reservations, I have heard from a number of you but not all that I usually see there. If you'd like table space, let me know your requirements (in units of 2'x5' tables) and demo theme, if you'd like that listed, ASAP. We're going to be tight this year (and that's a good thing) so please give some thought to what you can fit into 1-2 tables worth of space, if possible. Thanks all and I'll see some of you at the 8/30 meeting. -j

Vtserver, pdp11/34, and saving images

by ak6dn＠mindspring.com

Nothing besides running XXDP via TU58EM over this higher speed link. That's all I really use the TU58 for anyway, running XXDP diagnostics. It would be interesting to test running RT-11 over this emulated high speed TU58 link. It has a different s/w driver architecture so it may (or may not) work ok. In any event if the mod is done to the DL11-W you can back off to 57.6kb or 28.8Kb by changing the DIP switches. Those would probably work and are better than 9600b.

FS:AmigaMini- Thin Client- The Dedicated Amiga Emulation machine

by slandon110＠gmail.com

I started a project a a while back to come up with a nice way to run Amiga Emulation. Came up with a prototype recently based on an HP t5735 Thin client that has enough power to run the emulation smoothly. Finally got all the bugs worked out and I thought id sell some that I built up. I call it the Amiga Mini Specs are as follows HP T5735 Thin Client 1GB RAM, 1GB ATA Flash Disk, Holds Windows Embedded 16GB flash disk, Holds UAE and all other relevant files 8GB USB Flash Drive that mounts in workbench for easy file transfer. Over 1000 WHDLoad Games come preinstalled on the 16GB flash drive, Along with 500 Demos. AmigaForever is also included. Comes with ClassicWB 3.1 UAE installed and the system boots into Amiga Workbench 3.1, The cool part is it has Picasso emulation, so you get 32bit color at 1280x1024, Looks great. Boots right into Workbench 3.1 as soon as the system powers up. You can also configure UAE by just hitting the F12 button. Here is a youtube of the prototype http://youtu.be/HPRHPqXSgRs The internet is fully functional as well. So you can browse the web with AWeb, Chat on AmIRC with it. Transfer files via FTP or share files via SMB. Im asking $120 shipped anywhere in the USA. Good for peeps who want to see if they like the Amiga Platform, and its cheaper then finding a tricked out expanded amiga. I have 5 available, If there is demand for more I will build more of them.

Anyone with an EPROM burner out there? Need a chip programmed..

by drlegendre＠gmail.com

The KERNAL ROM in my Commodore SX-64 took a dive, and I don't have a spare. Far as I know it can be replaced with simple 8K PROM/EPROM. I've got the correct .BIN file - is someone willing to make a kernal ROM chip for me? If you don't have a suitable chip in your stock, I'm sure I can turn one up on ebay and have it sent to you. (And no, it's not the same as the C-64 kernal rom.. close but not identical.) TIA for any assistance. Please feel free to mail me off-list.

RE AmigaMINI

by slandon110＠gmail.com

You know I did this project because I wanted a cheap affordable amiga compatible computer, I put alot of time and work into it to get it all to work right. I have one Amiga, and my son wanted one, so thats why I built one, and I figure why not build a few up and find them homes. Its a cheap way for peeps to get into amiga I did look at AROS, great operating system, I use it on a dell that has compatible ethernet. However it networking doesnt work with these thin clients. And Geneb, theres no need to start a bashing session about my past, I am quite aware of my past, and so are others, However I have learned >from my mistakes and run an honest show now.

Ted Nelson interview / 1979

by hilpert＠cs.ubc.ca

Amusing 20 min interview on the CBC from 1979, in which Ted Nelson tries to convince the vision-less interviewer of the benefits and future of personal computers. Ted gets a little snarky to counter the derision of the interviewer. http://www.cbc.ca/rewind/episode/2014/08/07/robots-1/ (Hit the listen link, the Ted Nelson portion starts around 29:00, or listen to the whole thing (may have to wait for the audio to load to be able to skip forward)).

ALLSOP-DC-2000-Series-Tape-Drive-Cleaning-Kit-1-4-Data-Cartridge-Tape-Drives- http://www.ebay.com/itm/311025488685 Hopefully got the link right this time. The vendor has quite a bit of other stuff, I just stumbled over this and thought of recent discussions. Looks like he set fire to 1 of 3 Kaypros he had by plugging in and powering on one with a loose CRT. Not so smart. Jim

Vtserver, pdp11/34, and saving images

by roeapeterson＠gmail.com

Has anyone ever used vtserver to copy a physical pdp11 disk to an image file? I know it is usually used in the other direction, copying an image to a real disk. A local pdp11/34 has popped up, and there are several RK05 packs I desperately want images of. Also, I seem to remember some discussion of a version that could auto boot with the 11/34 console emulator, instead of ODT... As always, thanks for any info.

windows 95 floppy

by rmx44＠aim.com

i happen to have an older panasonic toughbook cf-27 mk2. i have wanted to run an older os on it but alas i dont have a cd rom or dvd rom for it cause the mk1 and mk2 revision shipped with a floppy drive for the drive bay and the mk3 and mk4 shipped with a cd rom or dvd rom. i have been looking for windows 95 on floppy but all the copies i find on torrent sites arent the full os or that you cant even boot from the img files after making the floppy disks with raw write. would anyone out there have 95 on floppy and or know a way to get drivers on a floppy disk rather then having to get the error of not enough room.

Trade TRS-80 Model 12 for PC/AT?

by nf6x＠nf6x.net

I've recently developed an interest in adding an original IBM PC/AT (5170) to my collection, with an EGA display (5154 monitor) and the early AT keyboard with the push-to-turn foot knobs on the sides. It seems that those aren't cheap lately on the eBay. I also have a TRS-80 Model 12 that's been made a bit redundant by my Tandy 6000 project and the TRS-80 Model II that I have on the way. I've overhauled the keyboard with new foam pads, replaced the Rifa caps after one of them got a bit over-excited, fixed a shorted cap on one of the floppy drives, and other such stuff to make it work. It doesn't have the card cage option. Do y'all suppose that my Model 12 might be a fair trade for an original PC/AT system, if anybody was so inclined to make the trade? And if so, might there be anybody around southern California who would be interested in meeting up to make such a swap without the need to pack and ship either of the heavy, fragile beasts? -- Mark J.

Unique DEC VAX System now available in Minneapolis, MN

by vmssys＠hushmail.com

http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/dak/sys/4595287377.html A complete, clean, and working DEC VAX data center is available for pick-up in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It is scheduled to go to recycling in a week. Act fast if you are interested. THIS SYSTEM DESERVES TO BE RESCUED. NO REASONABLE OFFER WILL BE TURNED DOWN. It includes two VAXen (a VAX 4300 and 4400) actually comes in two BA440 cabinets, clustered with a BA356 6-disk RAID array. The Vaxen have a full complement of memory, disk drives, cards in the Q-Bus chassis, and cables and terminators to connect to everything - including the networking hardware to connect your VAXen to your wireless network. Included is a stand-alone CD-ROM drive, and stand-alone 4mm DAT, DLT, and 1/2" 9-track tape drives and related cables, media and accessories. Included is a floor standing Printronix 6280L high-speed Line Printer, PFE 1190 & 1172 burster and decollator for processing its printouts, and related media and accessories. Of course, what this VAX would be complete without the operator terminal quietly resting atop the cabinets? Included is the DEC VT520 serial terminal, and a LA75 companion printer for printing from the terminal. Four 525 terminals are also included. I've included the OpenVMS 7.3 hobbyist CD, and a complete set of OpenVMS 7.2 product and documentation CDs for you to load under the OpenVMS Hobbyist license available free online. The VAXen can also support OpenBSD or NetBSD Unix, with some configuration work on your part. There are numerous spares and extras. This lot includes: System and Programming books, lots of spares and QBUS boards, VAX and PDP-11 Programming cards, and even a complete set of PDP-11 system QBUS board set for the technically adventurous! (See the "Detailed Description" below) These machines are fun - I hate to sell them. But look, if you're serious about computers, or if you're a collector, it's time to get a VAX data center! LOCAL PICK-UP ONLY. This lot is large and heavy.. A truck with a lift gate will be required.

Storage Wars episode.

by jws＠jwsss.com

Steve Stengel passed along a lead to do an appraisal with a TV show recently and it turned out to be the main Storage Wars production. It is on A&E channel. I got to film it around the first of July. It will be on on Tuesday 8/12 as the second half hour episode broadcast that night. The current DVR listings and TV schedules are a bit hosed up, and I am not sure if it will be on in the 9pm-10pm segment or earlier. There is a Storage Wars Canada on the current schedule out there. I believe here in on the west coast, the time will be 9:30. However if the current schedule as it is listed holds it may be the 8:30 one. Anyway, it was fun and educational. Chuck Hulse of Silicon Salvage donated his shop for the filming and is also on. I have no idea how it will turn out. Jim

looking for end screw mounted card guides

by spacewar＠gmail.com

I have an obscure mid-1970s machine, the Pacer, made by Product Support Engineering (not AMC). It uses nylon card guides that are 2.5 inches long, have a 0.312 by 0.375 inch cross section, slots down two opposing sides, and a threaded insert in one end for mounting. They are designed to be used on the mounting ears of edge connectors, though the Pacer also uses some attached only to the PCB in cases where the plug-in card is wider than the edge connector. Does anyone know of a source for this style of card guide? My Google searches mostly turn up snap-in card guides, and a few screw-in ones that have screw holes along the long axis.

Service for converting 9-track tapes

by pdp11＠saccade.com

A friend of mine has a few 9-track tapes (probably 6,250bpi, Unix) that he wants transferred to modern media. I used to refer people to Sellam Ismail's VintageTech for this sort of thing, but it appears that's no longer around. Can anybody recommend another place providing this service? I'm pretty sure my friend wouldn't mind a reasonable fee to cover the transfer & shipping, etc. He's in NYC. Thanks, jp

Eico test equipment and IC finds

by wulfcub＠gmail.com

I was recently tasked with cleaning the house of a retired EE-hoarder. I'm still cataloging the mountain of IC's he had stashed, and the list will be posted here once I have it finished. Among the more interesting finds, an AMD Data Ciphering chip sample (1984, hardware DES) containing three different versions of the IC. The bigger problem I have is an Eico Model 470 (not 460) oscilloscope he had. It's been touched, and a part is missing. I may be able to repair it, if I can lay my hands on a schematic or original manual. I've found two on the web, purporting to be correct ($4 for deadtree, snailmail; $20 for digital). Does anyone have any info on this oscope? I haven't found it in an Eico catalog, Sams Photofact, the BAMA archive, or anywhere else. Thanks! --Wulf -- "If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you." -- Winnie The Pooh

Help building a DOS system for ImageDisk

by nf6x＠nf6x.net

I'm trying to put together a DOS system on which to run the ImageDisk software, as found here: http://www.classiccmp.org/dunfield/img/index.htm The ImageDisk documentation recommends at least a 486-class system for best results, although it'll run on an original PC: "ImageDisk requires a DOS based PC with an AT type floppy controller. Although ImageDisk will run on a 4.77Mhz PC/XT type machine, some of the analysis functions are real-time intensive and best results will be obtained with a 486 class machine or better." ImageDisk is naturally finicky about its floppy controller, since it uses modes that are not normally employed for MS-DOS disk formats. After studying the list of controllers known to work well with ImageDisk, I ended up buying an Adaptec AHA-1522A SCSI controller on eBay, because it's built-in floppy disk controller happens to be a good one for this application. It's a 16-bit ISA card. I thought I already had a computer to plug it in to on my junk pile, but those all turned out to be much too new, with PCI slots only. Thus, I'm looking for some help looking for a machine that I can buy for running ImageDisk on. I don't want to waste space with any old arbitrary no-name clone machine; I'd like to get something that has some collector appeal all by itself, besides its utility for running ImageDisk with that AHA-1522A. The only PCs I'm familiar with that particularly interest me on their merits would be the original IBM PC and PC-XT. Those seem like they would be under-powered for this application according to the ImageDisk documentation, though. I hope that somebody who's more familiar with vintage PCs than I am can help me find a machine that meets these goals: * Must have at least one 16-bit ISA slot to accept the AHA-1522A board. * Must be able to disable any on-board floppy controller so that the AHA-1522A's floppy controller will not conflict with it. * Should be "486 class" according to the ImageDisk notes... yeah, I know that's a bit of a nebulous requirement. * It would be nice if it has an IDE controller so I can use an IDE to CF adapter in place of any hard drive. * It would be nice if I can use an SVGA LCD monitor that I already have with it. * It would be nice if I can use the Model M keyboard with PS/2 interface that I already have. * I really, really, hate orange Compaq displays. :) * Preferably not too huge. * Preferably not too expensive, and something I'll be able to find in short order on eBay or from another collector on this list. * I'd just run DOS on it, and I wouldn't care at all about things like mice, sound, etc. * Not a no-name clone; something that has some unique collector appeal of its own. This will be hard to satisfy, as I consider the "486 era" to have been an especially boring era of computing. :) * It'll be helpful if the case is easy to open, since I'd regularly need to plug in various disk drives, even including 8" ones. Do any of y'all have suggestions? -- Mark J. Blair, NF6X <nf6x at nf6x.net> http://www.nf6x.net/

Data beyond EOT on tapes

by jws＠jwsss.com

This is about 4mm tapes, and as we know is very dependent on the state of the tape media, and the firmware / mechanics of the drive. But it is a nice discussion of this guy's experiment. http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~plonka/sysadmin/backup.html Jim

National Semiconductor DM8130 datasheet

by spacewar＠gmail.com

Does anyone have the National Semiconductor DM8130 datasheet? I think it's just a different temperature range of the DM7130 ten-bit comparator, and I've got data for that, but I'd like to confirm it. It might be in National's 1976 TTL data book, which I don't have. Thanks! Eric

Who knows how to find (not very) old twitter posts? I don't. Suggestions? Speaking of old, and speaking of HP... it's quite a while now in HP terms (specifically, Nov 2013) since HP announced that they would be porting Tandem's NonStop environment to run on x86-based servers. So HP aren't entirely against carrying on developing old skool software if it has some pedigree and some customers and some $$$: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/11/04/hp_to_port_nonstop_to_x86/ Have a lot of fun John Wallace

FS: SGI Tezro quad-processor graphics workstation with max. RAM, professional video I/O, 10-GbE, FC and more ...

by mgariboldi＠gmail.com

Anyone interested in a quad-processor, 700-MHz 64-bit R16000, Silicon Graphics Tezro tower visual workstation? (From ca. 2006, still seeing some use in some studios, who haven't moved to Linux or Mac yet.) I'm hereby offering mine and the specifications of my system are as follows: - 8 gigabytes of (exclusively) 'premium' RAM; - SGI VPro V12 XIO graphics card plus _DCD_ daughterboard; - SGI DMediaPro _DM3_ XIO /and/ _VBOB_ (video break- out box) plus _DM5_ daughterboard, /including/ the special, and rare, *LVDS cables* (white and black); - SGI RAD (RADical) AES/EBU 24-bit multi-channel PCI audio board *plus break-out cable*; - SGI 2-port RS-232/RS-442 O3000 serial I/O expansion PCI board; - LSI LS949X _4-gigabit_ dual-channel FC-AL (fiber- optical) PCI-X HBA, including transceivers; - LSI LS1068 3-gigabit octo-channel SAS PCI-X HBA, with SFF-8484/SAS<=>SFF-8482/S-ATA converter and power splitting Molex cables optionally available; - Neterion/S2io "XFrame II" _10-gigabit_ ethernet PCI-X NIC, with 10GBASE-SR (fiber-optical) transceiver included; - DVD-ROM drive (IDE/ATA, SGI part-numbered, seen little use as it was a later addition and the Tezro came without the DVD-ROM drive originally); - 2 * SGI O300 (Intel-type) disk sleds present. Needless to say it's capable of running the latest version of IRIX (i.e. 6.5.30), as this was the last workstation by SGI, as you may likely already know. Below is additional, and more detailed, information from the IRIX commands "hinv", "gfxinfo" and "diskpatch" (in that order). ---------------------------------[TOF]--------------------------------- 4 700 MHZ IP35 Processors CPU: MIPS R16000 Processor Chip Revision: 2.1 FPU: MIPS R16010 Floating Point Chip Revision: 2.1 Location: /hw/module/001c01/node/cpubus/0/a CPU 0 at Module 001c01/Slot 0/Slice A: 700 Mhz MIPS R16000 Processor Chip (enabled) Processor revision: 2.1.

MAJOR OpenVMS News!

Hi all There's something about all of this that does not feel right. How big is this outfit? I can't see how they are going to support mission critical software on a world wide basis. HP are now absolved from any future new VMS promises they may have made. Where do Microsoft fit in this. Finally will they endorse the hobbyist VMS program?

OpenVMS Hobbyist License

by mtapley＠swri.edu

All, this matches my experience. I actually did manage to find my DECUServe member number in old emails. Less than three minutes later, I had the PAK?s in my in-box. I?m normally not inclined to complain when somebody gives me something this nice for free, and this is absolutely no exception; they seem to be in quite a *hurry* to give me something nice for free? Kudos to all involved! - Mark On Aug 1, 2014, at 5:32 PM, Eric wrote: > It took less than ten minutes from when I submitted the hobbyist program > signup form with DECUServe member number to when HP sent me the > license PAKs.

VAX cluster for sale / rescue: Apple Valley, MN, USA

by jfoust＠threedee.com

Because of my "computer rescue" web page, I got a call from a fellow selling this VAX 4400/4300 cluster: http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/dak/sys/4595287377.html It sounds like it was running very recently until they carefully dismantled it for this decommissioning. They pulled the boards and put them in static bags, for instance. He seemed sincere about hoping it could find a good home, but he's also entertained offers from DEC resellers and scrappers. Contact me privately for more gossip about the ballpark. Time is of the essence; it sounds like he moved it into his residential garage and his wife would like it to disappear ASAP, so we're looking at days and not weeks before it needs to go. - John

Floppy disk drive repair info?

by drlegendre＠gmail.com

Greetings folks, I've got a couple of dead C-1541 drives here, and not nearly enough knowledge / info to troubleshoot them. Does anyone have - or have a link to - a basic text on floppy disk troubleshooting & repair? For instance, I need to know what I should expect to see coming off the read head, and the read head pre- and post-amplifier circuits.. basic low-level info of that ilk. FYI I have 25+ years of exp. as an electronics tech, but almost exclusively in vacuum tube analog and audio circuitry. I have a scarce few basic solid-state & digital-specific instruments, such as logic probes / pulsers, transistor testers, transistor testers, not much more. Can you lend a hand?

Teletype Interfacing Page / More TTY parts for sale

by billdeg＠buzz1.com

I created a web page for people new to teletype to 20mA computer interfacing. It's more about the hardware and how to get started than software and use. From there you have to learn how to make your computer interact, but this page is a good starting point: http://vintagecomputer.net/teletype101.cfm I started this page just before VCF East 7 and never finished it, now I can check this one off my list. BTW I still have some teletype parts for sale http://vintagecomputer.net/itemsavailable/2014/ Everything that has already been sold is marked SOLD and has already been shipped. Yes I am willing to sell parts. Directions how to order, where I am located, etc are on each for-sale page. Bill

DRAM memory for NorthStar Horizon

by ian＠platinum.net

Hello All, Does anyone have an old National Semiconductor memory data book lying around? I have found the problem with my second 32k memory board - 3 bad DRAM chips. This board is populated with MM5298N-3B chips. I can't find an online data sheet that talks about the speed grade (I'm assuming that's what the 3 is referring to). The manual for the board ( http://www.hartetechnologies.com/manuals/Northstar/NorthStar%2032k%20RAM-32… ) says that the RAM is 200ns access time. I can find a source for MM5298N-4B chips, but I don't know if the 4B is still fast enough. I'll replace the entire bank of 9 chips at the same time so that they are matched. Thanks for any assistance. Ian

DRAM memory for NorthStar Horizon

by james＠attfield.co.uk

Ian, I'm afraid my NatSemi data book only goes up to MM5290 (16Kx1 Dynamic) but the '-3' variant is 200nS as is the MM5298-3 and it lists the '-4' variant as 300nS. Unless I had no option I wouldn't use the slower chips whereas the 150nS would do fine although without any real feel for the tolerances of the chips, board design wait circuitry (if exists) or the refresh controllers it is not really possible to say with any degree of certainty.

Parallel Port/Firewire/USB to IDE Bridge Specs

Anyone have any specs on any of the several chips or controllers that were used to bridge IDE HDDs to another interface such as PP, FW or USB. I'm thinking of products of Shuttle Technology, Indigita, ASP, etc. Alternatively, can anyone point me to an open source driver code for such bridges, perhaps Linux? Tom

Digital DECpos2 Documentation?

by nf6x＠nf6x.net

This will be a long shot... Do any of y'all happen to have PDF documentation for a Digital Equipment Corp. DECpos2 computer, model MT100-AA? This was a small Pentium PC made for point of sale applications. I found documentation online for an older 386SX based DECpos system, but nothing for the newer DECpos2 yet. Yes, this is related to Other Stuff I've been asking about here recently. ;) In particular, I want to find out whether its onboard floppy controller can be disabled. The 386SX-based version does appear to have that option in its BIOS settings, according to the user/installation manual I found. -- Mark J. Blair, NF6X <nf6x at nf6x.net> http://www.nf6x.net/

Help building a DOS system for ImageDisk

by billdeg＠buzz1.com

> I'm trying to put together a DOS system on which to run the ImageDisk software, as found here: > http://www.classiccmp.org/dunfield/img/index.htm Here is a thread on my site about my Pentium III system dedicated to imaging disks, plus a link to the class notes from the talk at the VCF East last spring: http://vintagecomputer.net/browse_thread.cfm?id=561 I am using a generic Pentium III, which will handle the Adaptec card you have in place of the Catweasel I have.The drive controller of the Pentium III has no issues with a 5 1/4" HD drive, which with an adapter can mimic a 77 track 8" drive. Note that I have a dual boot system, Dos 6 and Windows 2000. Works perfectly. Very little I can't image with this that is image-able. I also intend to put in a Quad Density drive, but I have not gotten around to it yet. The quad density I believe will look to the Pentium Bios as a 720 3.5" drive. In short, make your life easy, use a Pentium III with a compatible BIOS. Bill

Packages for Mac OS X on PowerPC hardware

by venture37＠gmail.com

Hi guys, I'm a long time lurker but this is my first to the list, If anyone still running OS X on PowerPC Macintoshes is interested, I've started building packages on Tiger 10.4.11 using pkgsrc & publishing them for others to use. I've written up a brief post on how to get started at http://www.geeklan.co.uk/?p=1579 if you've not used pkgsrc before. Packages are currently published at http://sevan.mit.edu/packages Let me know if you experience any issues, the aim of this exercise is to get familiar with building software & through that improve support for Darwin in pkgsrc. The number of published packages is growing (slowly), if there's something you specifically need, it'll show up eventually as the pkgsrc tree is built but feel free to email me off list if you'd like to add something to build list beforehand.

Help building a DOS system for ImageDisk

by hp-fix＠xs4all.nl

HP Vectra VL2. Very sturdy machine, with 4 ISA slots and 486 overdrive compatible. Mine works perfect for more than 15 years, I use it for the hp language processor board and elv ic-tester. -Rik -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: "Mark J. Blair" <nf6x at nf6x.net> Verzonden: ?2-?8-?2014 23:27 Aan: "General Discussion: On-Topic and Off-Topic Posts" <cctalk at classiccmp.org> Onderwerp: Help building a DOS system for ImageDisk I'm trying to put together a DOS system on which to run the ImageDisk software, as found here: http://www.classiccmp.org/dunfield/img/index.htm The ImageDisk documentation recommends at least a 486-class system for best results, although it'll run on an original PC: "ImageDisk requires a DOS based PC with an AT type floppy controller. Although ImageDisk will run on a 4.77Mhz PC/XT type machine, some of the analysis functions are real-time intensive and best results will be obtained with a 486 class machine or better." ImageDisk is naturally finicky about its floppy controller, since it uses modes that are not normally employed for MS-DOS disk formats. After studying the list of controllers known to work well with ImageDisk, I ended up buying an Adaptec AHA-1522A SCSI controller on eBay, because it's built-in floppy disk controller happens to be a good one for this application. It's a 16-bit ISA card. I thought I already had a computer to plug it in to on my junk pile, but those all turned out to be much too new, with PCI slots only. Thus, I'm looking for some help looking for a machine that I can buy for running ImageDisk on. I don't want to waste space with any old arbitrary no-name clone machine; I'd like to get something that has some collector appeal all by itself, besides its utility for running ImageDisk with that AHA-1522A. The only PCs I'm familiar with that particularly interest me on their merits would be the original IBM PC and PC-XT. Those seem like they would be under-powered for this application according to the ImageDisk documentation, though. I hope that somebody who's more familiar with vintage PCs than I am can help me find a machine that meets these goals: * Must have at least one 16-bit ISA slot to accept the AHA-1522A board. * Must be able to disable any on-board floppy controller so that the AHA-1522A's floppy controller will not conflict with it. * Should be "486 class" according to the ImageDisk notes... yeah, I know that's a bit of a nebulous requirement. * It would be nice if it has an IDE controller so I can use an IDE to CF adapter in place of any hard drive. * It would be nice if I can use an SVGA LCD monitor that I already have with it. * It would be nice if I can use the Model M keyboard with PS/2 interface that I already have. * I really, really, hate orange Compaq displays. :) * Preferably not too huge. * Preferably not too expensive, and something I'll be able to find in short order on eBay or from another collector on this list. * I'd just run DOS on it, and I wouldn't care at all about things like mice, sound, etc. * Not a no-name clone; something that has some unique collector appeal of its own. This will be hard to satisfy, as I consider the "486 era" to have been an especially boring era of computing. :) * It'll be helpful if the case is easy to open, since I'd regularly need to plug in various disk drives, even including 8" ones. Do any of y'all have suggestions? -- Mark J. Blair, NF6X <nf6x at nf6x.net> http://www.nf6x.net/

list archives (/ Thunderbird question)

by jules.richardson99＠gmail.com

Are list messages being actively archived and put online anywhere these days? I have a shade over 68,000 messages in my classiccmp folder, going back to 2008, and Thunderbird is about ready to explode. I need to have a clear-out; can I delete them because they're available somewhere, or am I better off keeping a snapshot of what I have? I'm sure other people have offline copies too, but I'm more interested in them being immediately accessible should I want to refer back to something I know I've seen in the past. If I remember right, the archives on classiccmp.org itself have always been a bit patchy. (Thunderbird question: If it is sane for me to keep them, do I just need the 'classiccmp' file at ~300MB, or do I also need the 'classiccmp.msf' file at ~36MB? I'm not sure if the latter's perhaps just an index which will get regenerated in its absence anyway?) thanks Jules

IBM 3278 term needs keyboard

by silent700＠gmail.com

My insatiable terminal collecting habit has cost me another couple square feet of space. By way of a well-spotted Craigslist ad, I have acquired an IBM 3278-5 terminal: https://picasaweb.google.com/102190732096693814506/IBM3278Terminal I'll need a terminal controller, so it'll be a long time before this term sees a mainframe session again. But it does power up and I'd like to at least test the local mode, so I'll need a keyboard, too. A few have appeared on eBay recently and sold for much more than I expected. Apparently there are a lot of 'boardless terminals out there. Aside from waiting patiently for one to come along cheap, what are my options here? The keyboard connector is a 25 pin and I believe it uses a serial protocol. Are there other IBM keyboards that may work? Any that can be adapted? For terminals, I have a 3178 keyboard (p/n 6052141) with the 15-pin connector. I know there is a 3278 -> PS/2 adapter project out there but it was intended to go the other direction, to use the 3278 keyboard on a PC. Perhaps it can be adapted to go my way? -j

HP 85 Flyback Transformer

by pdaguytom＠gmail.com

I've got an HP 85a that didn't fare well in it's recent travels to me. The flyback transformer broke away from the video board breaking 4 of the 6/7 leads (this was apparently an early flyback, it had a U shaped threaded rod secured with nuts & washers on the backside of the video board that broke at the outside bend). The unit did boot and run before it's trip so its worth repairing. I've not been able to source the transformer (or the video board) at anything below just buying a complete machine again. Anyone got a lead on one or know of a transformer that could be substituted? Tom

HP 9836 Monitor

Just picked up a HP 9836 sans monitor. After doing a little research on monitors for these, I've discovered that it ain't quite plug and play. I've scrounged through the HP Museum site (and google, google, google....) trying to determine pin outs, sync, anything to determine what might be substituted. Has anyone been there done that, have a hint what might be a direction which direction to begin in? Tom.

11/785 update- Ramtek Marquis

by useddec＠gmail.com

I looked at the 785 today, and the expansion cabinet there, but no disk or tape drives were found. As I stated earlier the cpu boards are gone, but there are boards in the BA11-KE. I have a set of 780 boards, but not sure if I have all of the 785 boards. Now the kicker- last time I saw the drives, which I didn't see this time, But I found a Ramtek Marquis model III. I believe it is a graphics processor. It might be able to be sold separately, and is in what seems to be in a H9642 cab. I do not own this, and can make offers. He has a fork lift and can load. I'm not sure if William is willing to transport them and would suggest you contact him directly and he is already planning. If you have any questions feel free to contact me. Located in IL.

Oiled paper tape is because.... ?

by tshoppa＠wmata.com

Been having fun, restoring and using an old hand-cranked Instructograph - apparently I have the original ten tapes, plus an extra 11th one too. Just like many 5-level and 8-level paper tapes I've dealt with, the Instructograph tapes ("1-level"? 2 levels if you count the flip-over direction) are oiled. Is the oiling of paper tape, done only to oil the punching machine originally, as the www.westnc.com<http://www.westnc.com> paper tape page implies? Or does it also help prevent brittleness and feed around the small diameter rod in playback path too? Tim N3QE

However, I can't remember the actual instructions. Maybe I am confusing the memory with the following three instruction sequence from Billy Y... and if so, please ignore my request. sub #'9+1 ,r0 ; convert ascii byte add #9.+1 ,r0 ; to an integer bcc 20$ ; not a number Jerome Fine

TU56 and G888 Module

by marco＠familie-rauhut.eu

Hello list! i`am working on the restoration of my TU56 Drive. It has an overvoltage damage. The manual transportlogic control and the transportcontrol by the TD8E is working correct. Now i`am in trouble with the G888 Manchester read/write Modules. Specialy with the adjustment of the zero crossing detector. In the maintanence manual i could not find any information on the correct adjustment and originaly the poti is secured by black paint... Oszi <http://www.familie-rauhut.eu/pic/oszi.gif> The yellow graph is the output of the first Amplifier witch is amplified the read heads outputsignal. The blue signal is the output of the nand driver(7400) after the zero crossing detector. In case of the term zero crossing detector, i placed the rising edge of the output on where the sine wave cross the zero line. Any usefull hints on the adjustment of the "zero crossing" detector?

My new arrival - MTU-130

by nospam212-cctalk＠yahoo.com

I just received a new system, one I've been interested in for a long time but seen very little about. A 6502 based Micro Technology Unlimited MTU-130. Received the system, monitor, dual 8" floppy drives, a printer and piles of documentation and software all from the original owner who used it for biochemistry research. Particularly can't wait to try out the light pen which came standard with the system. Does anyone else on the list have one? Any other doc or software available? I will have to catalog everything but will scan anything that isn't already out there. The owner is still sending me some newletters and such he found after he sent the system as well as some more background on how he used the system and what he did with it.

microcode store (was Re: Looking to get into a MiniComputer...)

by mark.kahrs＠gmail.com

Let me add that the PDP 11/44 was microcoded... Specifically, it was used by CMU to do C.mmp and Cm*. The microassembler was the Most Unlikely excuse for a MicroassemBLEr (MUMBLE), written by none other than some guy named James Gosling. Somehow I ended up with a listing of MUMBLE and the microcode --- I sent that to the CHM. Mark.

I'm sure there are others I've forgotten. Motorola provided exception handling software that would emulate (many) of the unimplemented instructions. MicroVAX dropped BCD instructions.

Easy way to get your serial based machines on TCP/IP, Amiga and Apple IIGS

by slandon110＠gmail.com

So ive been dabbling alot with linux, And ive devised a way to get your older machines online via serial. To start you need a null modem cable or adapter A TCP/IP Stack on whatever machine you decide to run on that supports PPP. I run MiamiDX on the Amiga 2000, and Marinetti on the Apple IIGS. Client Setup is like this IP address: Gateway: the IP address of your linux box DNS: use the DNS servers of your ISP or use google public DNS Basically all you need to do is install pppd in your favorite linux distribution. Then create a shell script that looks like this, Replace ttyUSB0 with whatever serial port you are using. Replace 192.168.1.105 with the IP address of your system, then replace 192.168.1.106 with the IP address you plan to give your client system. #!/bin/bash sudo pppd debug -detach proxyarp persist 192.168.1.105:192.168.1.106 ttyUSB0 19200 Then fire up your client machine and you should be able to get right online :) Im going to do this on a RaspberryPi next so I can have a nice small box to do what I need.

NorthStar Horizon Bootstrap Assistance

by ian＠platinum.net

Hello All, I've mentioned before that I'm bringing a NorthStar Horizon back to life. I've managed to get quite far, with a fully functional 32K machine running (the second 32k board has an unknown problem at the moment). I've used Dave's NSI utilities to create a CP/M boot disk, which is now working. CP/M is able to format disks, etc. The problem I'm having now is getting other CP/M utilities in to the machine. I'm thinking that KERMIT is a good tool to get in, because once I've got that, I can use serial to transfer anything else I want. I'm trying to follow the kermit-80 documentation about getting a couple of HEX files in to the machine then using MLOAD to merge them and create the binary. The problem I'm having is that the main kermit hex file (CPSKER.HEX) is 70k in size. I've tried both the bootstrap ASM that comes with kermit, as well as using pip, but as soon as I hit the buffer size and a disk write happens, I get a buffer overflow and the transfer breaks. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm thinking that if I could get the kermit binary (or even the hex files) on to a CP/M formatted NSI image, I could bootstrap that image over. Does anyone have a binary for kermit for the Northstar Horizon? Is anyone able to create an NSI image (double density single sided) that contains this binary, or the two HEX files in it? Or is there some magical incantation that I might be missing? I've got a very limited subset of programs on the CP/M boot disk: A>dir A: MOVCPM COM : CONFIG COM : ASM COM : COPY COM A: FORMAT COM : FILECOPY COM : DDT COM : ED COM A: LOAD COM : PIP COM : STAT COM : SYSGEN COM A: SAVEUSER COM : SETCPM COM : SUBMIT COM : XSUB COM A: DUMP COM : DUMP ASM : MEMR COM : MEMR DOC A: HORUSER ASM : USER ASM : DISKDEF LIB : READ-ME DOC A> Thanks in advance for any assistance!!!

PDP 11/40E and microcoding

by mark.kahrs＠gmail.com

I thought I'd change the subject line. Eric is of course correct, it's the 40 and not 44. I've had the 44 on my mind lately. The details of the 40E were given in an internal CMU report. This was poorly scanned by CMU and is available here: http://repository.cmu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=3241&context=compsci (and a hat tip to Paul Birkel for pointing this out). I will rescan the figures when I get my copy back from "interlibrary loan"). Wonder what happened to all that microcode written for Hydra???
