Ubuntu 24.04 Beta Review: THE WORST INSTALLER EVER
Ubuntu 24.04 is the first version of Ubuntu I've ever used where the installer is straight up broken. Which is funny because this used to be the OS I installed for old people who were tired of the slowness of Windows 10/11 on a spinning disk..

NEC PC-9821Nr15: A PC-98 Laptop?!?!? (with some games)
Просмотров 9404 месяца назад
In the 90s NEC made quite a few PC-98 laptops to the point there's a YAJ category for them. The PC-9821Nr15 is one such model prized by gamers due to it's inclusion of an FM sound chip, a rarity for PC-98 computers. Most PC-98 laptops were intended as business computers, and as a result lacked this functionality common on western PC laptops prized for DOS games. However, as with all 90s laptops...

Using the NEC PC-IN502 (early PC-9801 flatbed scanner) with vintage art software!
Просмотров 3858 месяцев назад
So I finally got the PC-IN502 working (needed a null modem cable) and I found out this scanner works with some PC-98 era art software. I tested the scanner with MultiPaint System and KID98. This was one tool used to make Japanese computer games in the 1980s and 90s, however as time went on many artists went on to use higher quality scanners like the Epson GT-6000 (which was sold worldwide).

    Got one of these to, today I finally got all the drivers working. Absolute nightmare to setup this system correctly. If I hadn't found a random very hidden IBM FTP server with this nightmare of a serial driver i'd never have figured it out. Couple of fun facts from that FTP repo, the serial driver tagged for dos is actually a Windows XP driver. Neither that one or the XP one is signed, instead it trashes your installation completely if you install it. The "DOS" one however comes with a readme that tells you that you have to disable driver verification prompts before installing the driver. Doing that instead of agreeing to them during the setup prompts magically fixes the issue and now the serial stuff works. Why not built in Serial support that just works like on any other motherboard? No clue. While you have the XX3, I have the XX4. I see that you have the intel graphics driver installed, on mine thats another nightmare scenario. The official drivers out of any of them I tried in the past none of them worked, but turns out there is this minimal unsigned (Of course, none of the official drivers are signed on a cashier PC who would want to do that?) driver that only works on this machine that does work, but the general performance isn't better than the windows built in driver and its also slightly less stable so I just decided not to. Finally brings me to the touch screen driver, I see you have the ELO driver installed which works. Does it come with that on that FTP site? Of course not! They ship it with a 3M MicroTouch driver that doesn't work at all. Luckily the newer ELO driver I found is backwards compatible and that one does work fine. Network / chipset drivers? Nah why would you put those on the FTP site to download them all nobody needs those right? But the official drivers for those do work. So now I finally got this thing up and running, mine doesn't have a speaker although I do have the sound driver for it mine lacks a soundcard so thats no use. Would have been fun if mine had it. After years of trying I can now finally say that the SurePOS that I was given years ago at an old workplace (Only the screen, no other cashier parts) is fully up and running with every driver. Wasn't easy and if I didn't discover that random old FTP server i'd never have found the serial driver that makes everything else work correctly.

    Wow Solaris I never know that you can install on these NT and even Linux with some hacking yep. Also if you want to get something completely up to date on this old junk hardware your only choice is NetBSD. You can rebuild the packages to this arch from pkgsrc however running new things like firefox and whatnot is forgettable even if they manage to start up with so small amount of ram they will segfault to pieces. I can see some use case there like maybe running a new version of nginx apache mini dns server etc but then again a raspberry pi 5 beats this to the punch 10 times so what's the point... This is why I prefer retro OSes for retro machines, along with all their bugs and shortcomings, that is the real fun

    21:18 About that... Well, that's because NTLDR on x86 PCs is just a small ARC emulator shim which goes on top of BIOS plus the normal osloader executable, the ARC boot loader which is found in RISC versions of windows, and which is also used in x86 as well. In fact, you can strip the small ARC emulation from the NTLDR, and the rest of the binary will load as a standard PE (native) NT executable on any disassembler. And you can find these files in the Windows NT, 2000 and XP CDs unfused as well (osloader and startrom). This way they can keep the loader code almost the same for every compilable platform they supported (and support).

    AIX isn't forgotten. It's used in the big 5 national banks every day. It may be on the decline in installations but it is not forgotten. I don't remember AIX 3.2.5, I do remember AIX 3.2.3e. I believe AIX 4.2.[0-4] is the lowest version that is Y2K compliant. The MCA BUS in the RS6K systems is not the same as that in the PC world. They are the same connector but the timings are much tighter and are not always compatible. The RS6K was started several years before the VESA and PCI BUS standards were made so complaining that it doesn't have PCI bus is a bit $ADVERB.

    I have both the CF RZ4 and CF RZ5 (using the latter now) here in Japan and I love them but they are both "not compatible with Windows 11" I am not sure whether to try to insert W11 anyway or move to Linux with the latter. Apparently there is a dollar a year Windows 10 updates deal for educators so I will probably stick with Windows 10 will then. I like the button that turns off the internal keyboard because I like mechanical keyboards and I turn the laptop over to rest on its keyboard so that I can use the touch screen near to me and not need to use my glasses. I have a super light laptop but carry a mechanical keybaord with me that weighs just as much. Thanks for telling me I can't upgrade the RAM. That is what I came for. A shame but 8Gb is probably enough. I bought a THIRD CF-RZ5 with windows 11 pre-installed! So it is possible. There are a variety of ways. Registry, delete a file or use a Windows install from Eastern Europe that is distributed by a Chinese American (Dong Knows Tech).

    This just proves that Apple's real problem in the 1990s was management. If they could do this in 1988, they could have made OS X in the early 90s. All they needed to do was negotiate a better volume license agreement with AT&T.

    • @nicksterj
      @nicksterj Месяц назад

      Apple mothballed A/UX right around the time they introduced the Power Macs. I think part of the reason is that porting A/UX to PowerPC would have been a huge and costly effort, and with the sale of Unix to Novell (then SCO) its future was hardly assured. Add to that the sales of A/UX were less than stellar. The Unix workstation market was increasingly owned by Sun. A/UX was kind of a failed experiment. On the other hand, in early 1994 Novell and University of California Regents settled their dispute over BSD and it became legally unencumbered, and freely available as a full open source OS. Apple could have grabbed BSD and ported it to PowerPC to make "A/UX 4.0." But I think they saw it as a server OS and handed that business off to IBM. Also, Linux was on the rise so they put their Unix people onto the MkLinux project and called it a day!

      @@nicksterj these comments make no sense. Lots of companies did similar things, and Apple itself even did it eventually with OS X. Hell, they even developed MAE for Solaris. Even Microsoft solved the problem early on with Windows NT by adapting VMS. You don't realize it, but Windows 95 and Windows NT 3 were incredible accomplishments at the time. They did everything Apple would have needed with just a few MB of RAM. However, Apple sunk resources into all kinds of projects, including A/UX, Copland, Pink and Taligent, but could never ship a product. The only thing they had missing was competent management until Steve Jobs returned. Issues like licensing and some minor technical issues can and were eventually overcome by NeXT, Apple, Microsoft and others. The difference is management, there was not some insurmountable obstacle at the time.

BIC stands for the german word "Bildungscomputer", which means: educational computer, the GDR had avoid some english words for their products, if necessary, so some words on bootlegged software were translated to the german and/or russian names.

That put a lot of stress on plastic parts and break those part which cause the mirror failure as you have encountered.
