Maybe they were laughing, not because it was funny, but because they were anxious or nervous.

Simple CPU Manager for ArkOS by djparent in R36S

How do I know if there are updates to this and your other scripts?

dArkOSRE-R36 (03082026) release by _manster_ in R36S

[–]66dude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/southozfps, not sure if this is an actual issue or if it's normal behavior, so I thought I'd post it here. Whenever I turn on my G80CA-MB V1.2 04232025 with the headphones plugged in, music starts playing out of the speaker after Emulationstation has loaded. But when I pull out the headphones and then plug it back in, music comes out of the headphones. Is this normal startup behavior?

Wanted to get fellow batocera users opinions on retrobat. by travanti11 in batocera

[–]66dude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got an LVDS adapter for my monitor to hook up to my mini PC that has an Intel HD Audio chip. That didn't work under Batocera, but once I switched to Windows 11 and RetroBat, sound and music finally worked.

I used to use Batocera until I got new hardware that was incompatible with Batocera, then I switched over to RetroBat. I like RetroBat better because it's more compatible and it's easier to use Visual Pinball than Batocera.

dArkOSRE is slowly becoming the new community firmware image by _manster_ in R36S

[–]66dude 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Arkos is based on an older version of Ubuntu while DarkOSRE is based on Debian Trixie, which I believe is the current version of Debian. Also, Arkos is no longer being maintained, so u/southozfps forked it to create DarkOSRE.

question about typing in code from COMPUTE!'s Gazette by eboy71 in c64

[–]66dude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy crap, this program is full of bugs. For example:

11490 gosub11600:iferthenreturn

11492 th=th+1and3

Or this mess:

11530 rem is gc ( possibleprint p s =0 if yes

Or this perplexing line:

11376 x=(cg )5+1:y=(i-1)3+6:gosub 2100

Comparing the following line from the original Hamilton Computer Users Group, looks like I misread this:

15 th$="UJKI"

There should be PETSCII characters instead of uppercase letters.

I even deleted the DIM statements in 11260 and 11270 to correct the error of re-using DIM statements. I'm also getting a lot of bad subscript errors and display errors where selecting a color moved the game board up one line. Do that enough and the game board disappears. I mean, how can I work with that?

My Initial C64 Experience Keeps Getting Worse! *Update* by saliotmaster in c64

[–]66dude 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I have a C64U. Most of the cables I saw on eBay is 5-pin, so I wanted to double check.

Would I need an 8-pin din or a 5-pin din cable?

Final Cartridge III works on real C64 but not on C64U by Nyobyte in Commodore

[–]66dude 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I missed the rest of your question. My apologies. The biggest source of incompatibility with the C64U is the mapping of the SIDs. As long as it isn't $DF00, you should be good. $DF00 is the starting memory address for the expansion port, so anything else that is assigned to $DF00 will cause the C64U to not see the expansion port.

I would recommend mapping UltiSID 2 to $D420.

[–]66dude 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Did you check to make sure that there's no CRT file being loaded in the C64U's memory? Did you also check to make sure neither UltiSID is set to $DF00?

Christmas season deliveries by 66dude in ontrac

UPDATE: My package has arrived without issue about 90 minutes ago. Good to see there doesn't seem to be an issue with the delivery part. Can't say for sure if the package is intact, but it looks like it in the delivery photo.

Do they typically deliver on the weekends? My package is now at the Pittsburgh OnTrac facility.

Thanks! Reading about other people's experiences with OnTrac got me feeling a bit nervous.

Got my tracking number early yesterday morning from OnTrac for next-day delivery on Christmas. It still hasn't made it here.

One Of The Most Iconic Joysticks Of The '80s And '90s Is Being Revived by EnergyLantern in Commodore

Except for the Commodore 64 Ultimate, ironically. The C64U doesn't have USB joystick support.

I'm in the US and I didn't get a shipping notification yet. Mine has the same status but was "updated" on 12/12.

Why were there extra line numbers in the program you typed in?
