I got some questions about the bracket in a private message, unfortunately I don't seem to have permissions to respond there. I added a link to the model file to my first post. After JLCPCB reviewed the file they told me that there may be imperfections because of the wall thickness. I told them …

I recently built an ARGUS card from the Gerber files and since I didn't have any spare bracket I looked into 3D printing. I made a 3D model based on Whiskey's PDF and got it printed by JLCPCB. If anyone is interested in the model please let me know (Disclaimer: I don't know CAD). Update: STL model …

I got the serial mouse to work by calling COMTEST.COM (comes with cutemouse) before loading the driver. I haven't figured out yet what makes the difference there.

I lifted the pin and bridged it, still not working.

I also couldn't get a serial mouse to work (Logitech M-C43). The mouse works on another computer. I did successfully use the TinyLlama serial port for bios debugging and also from DOS with a nullmodem connection to another computer. Tried several mouse drivers (cutemouse 19, 20, 21 and logitech …

Letting a single MCU handle keyboard, mouse and joysticks would be nice and it would allow remapping buttons across devices. Are digipots with 8bit precision enough for analog joystick input?

I found another hub without external power and that also worked here. I also supplied power directly to the mouse and it made no difference. Added some more logging to the bios code but I'm hesitant to make real changes because I have no way to flash a working bios if I break USB... I do get a …

Turns out 3 of the 5 mice that I have here actually work when connected via a powered USB hub. I'm not sure what I did wrong when I tried a hub yesterday. When directly connected to the tinyllama none of them work.

Tried 1.9.1 and 2.1b4, no luck. In both cases the cutemouse driver prints that it's installed on the PS/2 port but I get nothing when moving the mouse (tried some games and mousetst that comes with cutemouse). At least one mouse I tried says on the back that it's PS/2 compatible. Is it possible to …

- I need to do something about the display sticking out on the side Did you solder the display onto the board directly? I would suggest using 4 Dupont wires instead, and mounting the display in a case of some sort (btw, take a look at my example case on Github . I did solder a female dupont header …

Make sure to use CuteMouse (CTMOUSE.EXE) either version 1.9 or 2.1, as those talk to the BIOS (which has a PS/2<->USB mouse emulator), instead of PS/2 directly. I've tried a couple of modern optical mice with no issues. Tried 1.9.1 and 2.1b4, no luck. In both cases the cutemouse driver prints that …

I received one of Eivind's kits last week and built it on Sunday. The build went pretty smooth and with the great instructions on github I had Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis running within a couple hours. fp-tltop1.jpg fp-tlbot1.jpg fp-tlindy4.jpg Adding the MT32-pi was a bit harder than …
