Re: Paprium cartridge

Seems a bit off topic, but no one is trying to "damage" MiSTerFPGA GitHub presence. If you examine the account linked pretty sure it is simply asking for GPL compliance. Which you all could do with way less effort than acting offended. The account was already reported, and restored and found to not be "impersonating" anyone. The...

Re: Paprium cartridge

It will eventually be supported by software emulators and also MiSTer. It's just a matter of time now. First step should be figuring out the DRM/bank switching mechanism in other to get the full sequential ROM data and not mirrored data as one used to get when trying to dump Pier Solar without playing with the DRM/bank switching bits. Implementing...

I appreciate the hyperbole @jca, on the face of it suggesting those of us that perhaps want a package manager should use a little more diplomacy is funny. "Please return your DE-10 Nano. You are not the target market and do not understand the product" was of course extremely diplomatic. I do wonder how real "angry" gets support,...

Bluetooth has been proven exploitable from miles away with amplified gear, and an antenna.

So actually yes. I know a few mates in the UK if you want me to have one stop by and test with you how far away you could be easily exploited.

I'm gonna guess none of the folks that use Bluetooth Keyboards & keep MiSTer connected to their home LAN care that CVE-2020-12351 is remotely exploitable on kernel 4.19 over the air. In essence making MiSTer a backdoor into their home LAN that someone outside their home can use to compromise their network. https://security-tracker.debian.org/tr...

Re: Why not use a package manager?

Not much for the MiSTer's primary use case. A properly maintained OS keeps your appliance from becoming a potential springboard for attackers who are intent on abusing your home network. Of course the SSH root shell with a fixed default password that simply keeps reverting is a bigger bullseye on MiSTer's back, but running proper maintenance shoul...

It is painfully obvious that some of you just want to play video games, and don't care about the linux underpinnings at all with regard to best practices. That is unfortunate.

Thanks for the correction on lexicon. I am indeed aware that it is the user I/O port, and that Serial Native Accessory Converter is a peripheral specifically to handle the 5v vs 3.3v line levels.

Re: Input/Output model for Arcade games

Now that the race is on to provide arcade support via JAMMA, I wonder if a few more cabinets could be supported by revisiting this topic. Has anyone considered doing RS485 JVS over the SNAC port? I would assume a base level of support could be established in the same fashion that cores already support DB9. https://github.com/antoniovillena/MiSTer_D...
