| hackerdude | Hi again, I checked and no other monitors. | 22:00 |
| hackerdude | About this system. It's an upgraded A2000 with TF534 @ 33MHz w 68882 coprocessor, 4Mb Z3 FastRam2, Mem68K V68 8Mb Z2 Fastram, and kickstart 3.1.4 | 22:02 |
| mntmn | hackerdude: does showconfig list the board? | 22:04 |
| hackerdude | From 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 |
| mntmn | hackerdude: zz9000 manufacturer should be 28014 | 22:05 |
| mntmn | hackerdude: 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 |
| hackerdude | I 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 |
| mntmn | hackerdude: normally 4MB, but there's also a 2MB version https://source.mnt.re/amiga/zz9000-firmware/-/releases | 22:12 |
| mntmn | of the firmware | 22:12 |
| mntmn | hackerdude: but yeah if you could configure your mem68k to 4MB you could combine the two | 22:12 |
| mntmn | hackerdude: (or 6) | 22:12 |
| mntmn | hackerdude: also you can try FW1.9 but it does not have a 2MB version yet, will release that soon though. | 22:12 |
| mntmn | hackerdude: http://dump.mntmn.com/zz9000-fwpack-1_9-20210923-zorro2.zip <- fw1.9 beta | 22:13 |
| hackerdude | I'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 there | 22:14 |
| mntmn | (note that fw1.8 and fw1.9 drivers are incompatible) | 22:14 |
| hackerdude | Ah very nice | 22:14 |
| hackerdude | Yeah I have to put boot.bin and also drivers for the same version right? | 22:14 |
| mntmn | 1.9 drivers are included in the zip and need to be installed manually, 1.8 has an installer | 22:14 |
| mntmn | you currently have 1.8 on the card | 22:14 |
| mntmn | (4MB version) | 22:14 |
| mntmn | at least that's what we preinstalled | 22:14 |
| mntmn | or let me think...... | 22:15 |
| mntmn | if your card is very new it's probably 1.9 on it and needs 1.9 drivers! | 22:15 |
| mntmn | damn, i forgot to release that! | 22:15 |
| mntmn | so, that's probably your second issue. you need 1.9 drivers from that zip | 22:15 |
| hackerdude | Hah well, I did replace it already with the one that went with ZZ9000Installer1_8.lha | 22:15 |
| mntmn | ok ok | 22:15 |
| hackerdude | The boot.bin I mean | 22:16 |
| mntmn | because we shipped a mini batch like 2 weeks ago and it already had 1.9 | 22:16 |
| hackerdude | Yeah it was slightly smaller. I figured to match the drivers and the boot.bin to make sure it wasn't a software thing | 22:16 |
| mntmn | and that included your card i guess | 22:16 |
| hackerdude | Yeah I got it yesterday in California | 22:16 |
| mntmn | ok cool | 22:16 |
| hackerdude | Let me see if this mem68K has jumpers. I got this Amiga with it already and I haven't checked | 22:16 |
| mntmn | alright | 22:17 |
| hackerdude | Better get to it while Europe is still awake. :) | 22:18 |
| hackerdude | BTW even without it "working" the output is amazing. Way better than the SCART solution | 22:19 |

| hackerdude | Ok 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 screen | 22:58 |
| hackerdude | Should I try it with 1.9? | 22:58 |
| mntmn | yeah try 1.9 | 23:13 |
| hackerdude | Ok, things copied to their places, old ones moved out of the way and rebooting. | 23:21 |
| hackerdude | Ok, 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 screen | 23:26 |
| hackerdude | 1024x768 @16bit only shows if I set a Max of 2048 colors, fwiw. After that, cannot open test screen | 23:29 |
| hackerdude | Hmmm board shows up twice on P96mode. Maybe I did something wrong, hold on | 23:30 |
| + RobDangerous (~Thunderbi@p200300ec8f0dd20030b534611b065b73.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) | 23:34 | |
| hackerdude | Ok, so removed a wayward file, then went and assigned the modes to the ZZ9000 board on P86Config. Now resolutions I ran test fine... but | 23:45 |
| hackerdude | Upon hitting Use on 1280x1024@16bit, drawing the screen with the pattern (single color) is so slow it's not done yet :) | 23:46 |
