Mouse Mania !!
Anybody wants to connect a PC mouse to the SAM ?? Its now possible. And very easy too. All you need is the COMMs interface (with the RS232 part). And solder a single wire at the connector to make them work (with a special driver) . If you have a Microsoft Ballpoint Mouse you even don't have to solder the wire . (Plug and Play ???) I already wrote some drivers for it and it just works great. After all those years I can finally play Batz'n Ballz with A mouse. To be continued ... Edwin Blink.

Re: Sam show?
Hello Simon, Perhaps it was Simon Cooke. Or possibly Ian Slavin. Apart from the glasses, we both had a very similar line in hair and leather jackets. Ah yeah, that's him. I couldn't remember the name but now you've mentioned it I recall always wondering whether it was pronouned Slay-Vin or Slavvin. g Kev.
Re: Sam show?
Hi Ian, I do not recall ever going to an All Formats fair in Haydock... Perhaps it was Simon Cooke. No, his name was Ian. :) H, who else is there called Ian on the Sam? He did some programming, I think. Kev.

Yep, agreed, I hadn't actually intended matching the other one (Which I realise this _does ...) the .* is intended to catch multiple spaces or perhaps if owner-sam-users ever decides to give itself a _real_ name.

RE: Mouse Mania !!
Anybody wants to connect a PC mouse to the SAM ?? I think so! All you need is the COMMs interface (with the RS232 part). And solder a single wire at the connector to make them work (with a special driver) . If you have a Microsoft Ballpoint Mouse you even don't have to solder the wire . (Plug and Play ???) Question time: Does the Comms IF need the 'modification' that has been mentioned every so often (Speaking of which - what is it? [1]) Will this work with normal PS/2 type mice as well? If so then would it be easy to make a 9-pin - PS/2 converter with said extra wire? A few questions about the driver: 1. Is it a just replacement for the 'mdriver' mouse driver, or will it work with any mouse applications 2. Does the driver support mouse speed/acceleration? This coupled with the PC Keyboard I/F would make moving my Sam into a PC case a lot more attractive. Speaking of which, I remember seeing a bloke at the (now one before) last show - he had his mounted in a mini-tower. How many things are left for a complete metamorphosis? Dan. [1] No mentions of 'White Holes' now... :-)
Re: Mouse Mania !!
Will this work with normal PS/2 type mice as well? If so then would it be easy to make a 9-pin - PS/2 converter with said extra wire? Nope - the RS232 mice run off +12v and -12v (well, 12ish..) but the PS/2 mice run of +5v, 0v. Also, the PS/2 mouse communicates synchronously (whereas RS232 is asynchronous) 1. Is it a just replacement for the 'mdriver' mouse driver, or will it work with any mouse applications Any application which uses the driver that came on the disc with the SAMCo mouse interface should work. Any software that reads the hardware directly (by doing 8 reads in quick succession), won't work. I actually made a device once that made a PC mouse hardware compatible on the SAM -- but it used quite a few chips. I think I could cut that down to just three or four chips, if there's enough interest - and it would be cheaper than the SAM Mouse to build, too (much smaller PCB - could easily be soldered internally). Things like FLASH and SAMPaint should be fine, I'd guess This coupled with the PC Keyboard I/F would make moving my Sam into a PC case a lot more attractive. I dunno if anyone is actually interested in having one, but I've now designed (on paper) the pcb for my PC keyboard interface - I've just got to put it into EASY-PC now. It's a quite small pcb, and it fits between the 256K expansion and the right-hand disc drive - being attached by one of the screws that hold the trapdoor in place, and one sticky pad. It should need twenty or so solder points - but not very fiddly ones. Speaking of which, I remember seeing a bloke at the (now one before) last show - he had his mounted in a mini-tower. How many things are left for a complete metamorphosis? I think mounting the disc drives could be a bit of a bugger - it might be possible to use a PC disc dirve lead, but I think a new small pcb to hold the VL1772 might be necessay. Also, since the SAM drives are slimline, how easily would they mount, and how good would they look, in a PC drive bay? Andy
