To answer my own questoin _again_, about half the function keys were toast, but they seem to be a standard part (!) so I was able to order some replacements. On Mon, Apr 17, 2023 at 9:00 PM David Plass wrote: > Thanks. > > To answer my own question, the 1N4148 diodes worked perfectly. All the >

Re: [M100] M100 Hello!

First off, I just fixed my list preferences so that I'll be able to reply correctly next time but these probably won't show up on the correct thread. Forgive my millenial inexperience with mailing lists. Daryn, thank you! I did run across the DLPilot page, and I actually read yours as well the

Re: [M100] M100 repairs (LCD, keyboard)

Thanks. To answer my own question, the 1N4148 diodes worked perfectly. All the regular keys are working. The function keys, not so much. I've squirted lots of electronics cleaner and clicked each switch dozens of times and only a few of the 7 or so broken switches have come back. Right now I dripp

[M100] M100 repairs (LCD, keyboard)

I couldn't resist a recent M100 on ebay listed as "not working". The main issue was a dead contrast pot, which I have temporarily worked around and ordered a hacky replacement. The polarizing film is also very bubbly and no amount of smoothing made it stay flat on the LCD. Is there a known replace

Hi Jim, Yes there is a special LaddieAlpha that runs at 76800. John of course owns that. Right now the only software I have that makes use of the 76800 modified TPDD routines in M100 is the RXCUTL software. Having said that, I've not touched it in 2 years, to either test or use. Should still be o

Yes, I have a list of jobs to do on M100 CP/M. Rest assured I'm still committed to all-things M100 CP/M.  My excuse is I was commissioned to do a vintage vehicle restoration which has soaked up all my spare time for the last 2-years. The good news is I'm almost complete & I expect within a few

Well, you don't need it on a T200 ;-) The challenge was putting a 9x9 grid on an 8-line screen BTW, he's also the guy who did most of the firmware for the CP/M port. On Fri, Feb 24, 2023 at 2:41 AM B 9 wrote: > On Sun, Feb 19, 2023 at 4:06 PM Mike Stein wrote: > >> You might also get inspir
