I am sorry, but the SMSQ/E v3.33 source file archive
(http://www.wlenerz.com/smsqe/333/smsqe333.zip)
is always the same, and it also got an issue with the QXL (it does not
allow to produce a functional QXL binary)...

I could however, after applying Marcel's patch to smsq_smsq_wman_link,
produce a configurable Q60 SMSQ/E file.

Also, the current smsqe333.zip file contains the compiled binaries in
excess of the sources (and should probably be removed).

I also used this occasion to correct a bug in the Q68 version due to

This bugfix doesn't merit a whole new version, but you should upgrade.




Thanks Wolfgang.

My attempt to run v3.33 on the Aurora/SGC also failed.
I made sure it was configured the same as the previous 3.32 but the screen  
stayed black and nothing else happened.


Also the QXL version failed to run.
"The QXL at IO address 02B0h is not responding" is all I got.
The last working version I tried here was 3.26, with the same address.

Hi all,

SMSQ/E 3.33 is out, get it as usual from
www.wlenerz.com/smsqe<http://www.wlenerz.com/smsqe>

What's new in this version :

Final bugfix for LRESPR in procedures (means everybody should upgrade)
Better QL networking.
Gold card is configured not to use ABC keyboard.
Improvements in standard QL EE.
Q68 & SMSQmulator better  handling.

The sources for the stand-alone TK II are included in the SMSQ/E sources.
Moreover, whilst they aren't really part of SMSQE, the new QL-SD drivers
are built on the basis of the SMSQ/E "dv3" driver acihtecture, so their
sources are also included in the SMSQ/E sources (remember, the compiled
drivers are at wlenerz.com/qlsd).

If you have a Qx0 machine and access to an EPROM burner, this may be of
interest to you : The Qx0 may now have a compressed SMSQ/E so newer
versions thereof fit in the standard EPROMs. There is a certain process
involved in making these EPROMs - but it is clealy described in the
"smsq_q40_boot_doc" or "smsq_q40_boot_txt" files in the SMSQ/E sources.

Finally, Q68 has better handling of some slower SDHC cards. Also, and
that is an officially unofficial and undocumented feature, the Q68 may
also be able to read most older SD (not SDHC) cards. However, make sure
that this actually works with your cards before using them in earnest.
Offficially, the Q68 still only supports SDHC cards.

Have fun!

Hi Bob,

I configured the SMSQ/E with all Q68 sold with FAT enabled.

I guessed that it would useful.

But I did not create a FAT16 partition on the supplied SD Card.

Both are wrong and can not be used by the Q68 Loader without changes.

There should only be the .WIN Container and it should be 1 MB in size.
(The .SYS File should be *inside* that container.)

Hi Bob,
The Q68 system files Q68_SMSQ.WIN or Q68_SMSQ.SYS have to be located on FAT32 
partition.
The FAT device is used to access a FAT16 partition. Used to interchange data 
from Q68 and other PC or MAC computers.
Any updated Q68_SMS.WIN file must be located in the first 16 entries in the 
FAT32 file system.
You can see the file entries by using the CARD_DIR$ function.
To see the FAT32 entries on Card 1 use:
PRINT CARD_DIR$(1)
The safest way to update SMSQ/E on a Q68 is to copy the Q68_SMSQ.WIN file to a 
separate SD Card and insert this into Q68 SD Card Slot 2.
Power on Q68, with working SD Card. The current SMSQ/E WIN file is defined at 
WIN8_ by default.
You have to initialise Sd Card 2 and mount the new updates WIN file that can be 
done by:
CARD_INIT 2WIN_DRIVE 7,2,"Q68_SMSQ.WIN"WCOPY WIN7_ , WIN8_
If you only want the Q68_SMSQ.SYS file to start the Q68. Then the updated file 
has to be placed on the SD Card with Windows/Linux/Mac.
Please refer to the SMSQ/E manual with regards fragmentation of the SD Card 
FAT32 file system.

Thanks Wolfgang for the update.
But there are some confusing aspects about the Q68 files.
Both count 350.000 bytes, one .SYS and one .WIN.
When Viewed they look the same. Should the .WIN not be a valid QLWA file  
containing the .sys?

I've copied the .sys to the existing Q68_SMSQ.WIN on my SD using QPC2,  
replacing the previous SMSQ. The existing BOOT was used to start the Q68.
The boot file now gave an error on FAT_DRIVE 'unknown procedure'.
Looking at the list of commands with HyperHelp showed no FAT_ keywords  
were found.

Re: [Ql-Users] SMSQ/E 3.33

[Peter Graf via Ql-Users]

Hi Wolfgang,

fantastic work, many thanks!

Now all QL hardware platforms QL, GC, SGC, Q40, Q60 and Q68 share the
same, stable filesystem on SDHC cards. And they can exchange it with
emulators on the same medium.

This was my original hope and vision, when I first started with SD cards
on the SGC parallel port and Qx0, first based on mtools, later adapting
the Steinkopf drivers, later the QL-SD interface with Qubide format,
which then again was used for the first steps on the Q68, leading to
QLWA support for all hardware in the end.

I could only pioneer FAT32 and the basics of such drivers, and I'm glad
that I did. But Wolfgang made everything so much more complete and well
integrated. The QL world owes him a big thanks!

All the best
Peter

The sources for the stand-alone TK II are included in the SMSQ/E sources.
Moreover, whilst they aren't really part of SMSQE, the new QL-SD drivers 
are built on the basis of the SMSQ/E "dv3" driver acihtecture, so their 
sources are also included in the SMSQ/E sources (remember, the compiled 
drivers are at wlenerz.com/qlsd).


If you have a Qx0 machine and access to an EPROM burner, this may be of 
interest to you : The Qx0 may now have a compressed SMSQ/E so newer 
versions thereof fit in the standard EPROMs. There is a certain process 
involved in making these EPROMs - but it is clealy described in the 
"smsq_q40_boot_doc" or "smsq_q40_boot_txt" files in the SMSQ/E sources.


Finally, Q68 has better handling of some slower SDHC cards. Also, and 
that is an officially unofficial and undocumented feature, the Q68 may 
also be able to read most older SD (not SDHC) cards. However, make sure 
that this actually works with your cards before using them in earnest. 
Offficially, the Q68 still only supports SDHC cards.


Have fun!
