Re: [Ql-Users] SMSQ Reference Manual and QPTR manual online
I'm very grateful to Marcel for this. I have both books, but they are big and clumsy, so a PDF (I hope it's searchable, haven't looked yet) will be *very* useful for the odd occasion when I need to refer to the docs.

Re: [Ql-Users] SMSQ Reference Manual and QPTR manual online
Thank you, Marcel! BTW: I still find it a bit annoying, that Jochen had omit the original labels of all the TRAPs and Vectors as mentioned in the QLTG and used for years and still be present in a lot of include fles. I can still not understand, why Tony meant to rename them all in the context of QDOS. Ok, SMS was new, but it had been helpful to make a hint for all. And...what is DV3, Device Driver 3? Not heard of it. It is just mentioned at the beginning? Cheers...Ralf Another BTW: If someone provides the *original* txt of QPTR (with all the embedded ESCapes, Jochen has called them control codes), I can make a pdf with QPLQ to provide the original layout. - Original Message - From: Marcel Kilgus ql-us...@mail.kilgus.net To: ql-us...@q-v-d.com Sent: Friday, November 13, 2009 3:52 AM Subject: [Ql-Users] SMSQ Reference Manual and QPTR manual online Here's one thing that came out of the Swiss QL meeting: I've updated my page at http://www.kilgus.net/smsqe/development.html to include PDFs of the QDOS SMSQ Reference Manual and QPTR.

Re: [Ql-Users] aurora display
Hi, I believe my Qubide chips are not working as they should. At first I copied my master floppy disk to improve matters and as things didn't improve I assumed my master disk was faulty; but I now realize my master floppy is ok. Its the chips. Where can I get replacement chips?

Dear Arnold, I would not be too sure about your diagnosis. I think Tony is quite right when saying that the problem is due to QPlane. The Aurora+SH+Qplane+Qubide I was trying to fix experienced the same identical problem with either a completely different Qubide or by replacing the two chips with new ones.
