hackerdudeHi again, I checked and no other monitors. 22:00
hackerdudeAbout this system. It's an upgraded A2000 with TF534 @ 33MHz w 68882 coprocessor, 4Mb Z3 FastRam2, Mem68K V68 8Mb Z2 Fastram, and kickstart 3.1.422:02
mntmnhackerdude: does showconfig list the board?22:04
hackerdudeFrom sysinfo before/after comparisons, it seems the ZZ9000 is taking the place of the 8Mb Fastram and something else ($00200000 has 8MB Product 8 Mgfr 4369 w/o ZZ9000, with it it shows Mfgr 32127)22:04
mntmnhackerdude: zz9000 manufacturer should be 2801422:05
mntmnhackerdude: if you have 8MB Z2 fastram, you can't use any other Zorro cards, as there is only 8MB Z2 address space in total.22:06
hackerdudeI wonder if there's a way to reconfigure the MEM68K. Would I need to only give it 4MB? How much does ZZ9000 need to operate normally?22:08
mntmnhackerdude: normally 4MB, but there's also a 2MB version https://source.mnt.re/amiga/zz9000-firmware/-/releases22:12
mntmnof the firmware22:12
mntmnhackerdude: but yeah if you could configure your mem68k to 4MB you could combine the two22:12
mntmnhackerdude: (or 6)22:12
mntmnhackerdude: also you can try FW1.9 but it does not have a 2MB version yet, will release that soon though.22:12
mntmnhackerdude: http://dump.mntmn.com/zz9000-fwpack-1_9-20210923-zorro2.zip <- fw1.9 beta22:13
hackerdudeI'd rather use the ZZ9000's 4Mb if I can since it's newer :)  I can't get to the Mem68K because it's under the drive tray so I'll have to try it tomorrow. I do have another A2K but it doesn't have an operable hard drive, so out of luck there22:14
mntmn(note that fw1.8 and fw1.9 drivers are incompatible)22:14
hackerdudeAh very nice22:14
hackerdudeYeah I have to put boot.bin and also drivers for the same version right?22:14
mntmn1.9 drivers are included in the zip and need to be installed manually, 1.8 has an installer22:14
mntmnyou currently have 1.8 on the card 22:14
mntmn(4MB version)22:14
mntmnat least that's what we preinstalled22:14
mntmnor let me think......22:15
mntmnif your card is very new it's probably 1.9 on it and needs 1.9 drivers!22:15
mntmndamn, i forgot to release that!22:15
mntmnso, that's probably your second issue. you need 1.9 drivers from that zip22:15
hackerdudeHah well, I did replace it already with the one that went with ZZ9000Installer1_8.lha22:15
mntmnok ok22:15
hackerdudeThe boot.bin I mean22:16
mntmnbecause we shipped a mini batch like 2 weeks ago and it already had 1.922:16
hackerdudeYeah it was slightly smaller. I figured to match the drivers and the boot.bin to make sure it wasn't a software thing22:16
mntmnand that included your card i guess22:16
hackerdudeYeah I got it yesterday in California22:16
mntmnok cool22:16
hackerdudeLet me see if this mem68K has jumpers. I got this Amiga with it already and I haven't checked22:16
mntmnalright22:17
hackerdudeBetter get to it while Europe is still awake. :)  22:18
hackerdudeBTW even without it "working" the output is amazing. Way better than the SCART solution22:19

hackerdudeOk so without Mem68K. Board shows up on showconfig as MNT 4Meg @$200000. Workbench shows 2.2Mb other mem. Running ZZ9000 flashes the screen but tesitng resolution says cannot open test screen22:58
hackerdudeShould I try it with 1.9?22:58
mntmnyeah try 1.923:13
hackerdudeOk, things copied to their places, old ones moved out of the way and rebooting.23:21
hackerdudeOk, now running the monitor flashes. The resolutions show up as mntgfx:WxH bits. But "Test" shows a black screen until I Escape. 32 bit res still shows Cannot open test screen23:26
hackerdude1024x768 @16bit only shows if I set a Max of 2048 colors, fwiw. After that, cannot open test screen23:29
hackerdudeHmmm board shows up twice on P96mode. Maybe I did something wrong, hold on23:30
+ RobDangerous (~Thunderbi@p200300ec8f0dd20030b534611b065b73.dip0.t-ipconnect.de)23:34
hackerdudeOk, so removed a wayward file, then went and assigned the modes to the ZZ9000 board on P86Config. Now resolutions I ran test fine... but23:45
hackerdudeUpon hitting Use on 1280x1024@16bit, drawing the screen with the pattern (single color) is so slow it's not done yet :)  23:46
