A600: Mounting NMI and USB connector
Well, today I thought of proceeding more to the finalization of my A600 mod :)
I forgotten that I had to put the NMI reset button since I've included the HRTmon module inside the custom ROM that I'm kicking via ACATune utility.
That was one of the easiest mods since it just requires just a push switch wired to a female header.
A600: Custom audio mixer & mounting MAS-Player inside!
Gotta love free time that weekends give :) Time to tinker my lovely Amigas.
First of all, I had to do the boring stuff of cutting the case above the PCMCIA port just to install the perfect CF2IDE adapter by kipper2k which I had for a really long time :)
A600: Trying 800x600 resolution & setting up ClassicWB 3.1
Hi my fellow Amigans,
Some days ago, I saw with surprise Ratte's post over A.org about a new Beta firmware from Jens for Indivision ECS and his new version of SuperPlus driver that didn't have the alert box!
I immediately downloaded the appropriate files and after flashing my Indivision ECS with the new version 1.10 and copying the SuperPlus driver over my Devs:Monitors/ drawer it was time to test teh beast :)

A4000: Custom audio connector
Just before I install my repaired A4000 mobo by Cosmos, I thought...
"Why don't you put an internal Audio cable so you could insert it into ESS-Solo-1's input?"
I thought that in the past, but there was no way I would dismantle the whole Amiga to do such a mod :)

Now I had the opportunity :D
So, I got some nice cable and soldered it underneath the mobo to the RCA connectors

A4000: Mobo got a nice service :)
As I said in my previous article, I was without my A4000 mobo for about 2 weeks due to sending it to Cosmos for general repairs.
The mobo was operating just fine as you can tell from the previous Blog articles, although it required at a point a professional service for some stuff like:
A1200: Checking out my former lady :)
Hi peepz and I wish a good year to everyone :)
Last week was kinda painful cause I didn't have my A4000 to tinker, since I sent it's motherboard to Cosmos for general repairs (that will be covered in another thread though).
That's why I had time to check out the former lady that was sitting patiently in my office after I sold it's powerful heart (BPPC+BVision).
I thought about removing all components to clean them up and take some photos in case I decide to split and sell every part individually.
Guide: Making Workbench prettier using Rebel's palette and skins
Many people that use Workbench 3.1 most of times want to be able to make their environment prettier being able to use more than the default 4 colors and also use colorful backdrops.
Don't get me wrong... Workbench was way ahead of it's time and it's really nice by default. Why not make it better though? :)
Changing channel
Picking up my networking work. I created a VMNetChannel which holds all socket/net-related operations and altering VMChannel to only contain file I/O. Looking at where VMChannel is used, I can only find the entries listed in the screenshot.
GDB on os4
Lately i start to write some research-kind article about aos4 internals from the 3d party coder perpective, and while i still works on it, i found that few parts of articles can fits to some small ones, about different aspects. Just something which can be interesting to read for some beginners. And so, as result i just make first one, which cover some first steps with GDB, for someone who not familiar with it, or just want something aos4 specific only.
