Also- add to the last question:
When you DO find the schematics out there that refer to a MAX-232
IC (presumably the chip used in the APROTEK RS232 interface) well,
I don't have an APROTEK interface so where do I find the MAX-232
chip?  I would like to have a crack at the 9600bps interface that
is currently under development/improvment but the plans only show
how to mod that chip and I haven't gotten any further with it...
Any help is helpful :)

I have had success with the PPI and Zoom.  I see no reason that the
Cardinal modems would cause any problems, unless you're trying to get it to
work with a BBS program.  Those are tricky.  But all external 14.4K modems
should work with the SwiftLink, and 28.8K modems as well though there isn't
any speed increase for those over the 14.4K's.  Now when you get a SuperCPU
to go with that, you should be able to go the max speed of the modem since
the CPU is the only thing slowing anything down.

Wow!  I first read this yesterday at which time I was reminded of a
previous project that I had, untill now, abandond.  I spent a few hours
today gathering soold tools and found a program called MODEM NIBBLER
that I've had for years but never bothered to fiddle with it enough to
get any results.  Firstly the program will not work for the requested job
cause it needs a c64 at both ends- secondly the program was written in
basic and max. baud is 1200 (yuck...) and lastly I found out why I could
never get it to work- a bug exists in the compiled copy I have...
After de-blitzing and examining and crushing the bug it worked first time-
if incredably slowwwww.  Well, if I get the time (and ambition) I may
improve the program (a good ML modem send/receive routine is needed) and
include the RLE depack code to "unZIP-CODE" the received files as they
are sent from a remote computer- a project I have been wanting to start
for many moons....  Also the next logical enhancement is to have it unD64
the file as it is received- likewise, D64 a disk as it is sent...
Well, all in good time... Till then, 64COPY works very well on the PC/DOS
side to go from D64 to ZIP-CODE and back- this is what I uze...
Anyhoo, thought I would let you all know what was up my sleeve.

The SuperCPU C64 Kernals (yes, plural) are located in RAM bank $01, where
they can be readily changed by anyone with enough programming expertise.
We don't necessarily recommend this for commercial applications, though,
as I can pretty much guarantee that there will be OS changes and upgrades
coming that may present compatibility problems. You also need to be
careful about patching routines that need to activate the other Kernals at
given points, or figure out how to align those patches with the underlying
layers. These subjects will get coverage in the programming guide.

He was referring to it being a relatively standard JiffyDOS implementation.

I don't know what capacity ROMs can be handled by the Promenade, so I
can't really answer that directly. The SuperCPU does use standard ROM
chips, though. Currently, I believe the unit is shipping with a 128 KB
(that's KiloBytes, not bits) ROM. The 128 verison may end up being a 256
KB ROM, that's as yet unknown. The system is designed to take up to 512
KB, though, with the remainder to be used for Native OS upgrades and other
bundled 'features'.

This cartridge switches out the Kernal, so it isn't going to be at all
compatible.

So far as I know, ROMs that could keep up with 20 MHz don't exist. We
initially had hoped to use a fast ROM ourselves, but couldn't find a
source. Your only hope for this specific cartridge would be to dump all
the ROM segments, then patch the disk routines and any other timing
dependant routines for 20 MHz. Adjust the bank-switching mechanism to get
other code segments from far RAM, then use the final result with a
SuperCPU containing extended RAM.

This is a traffic cop and is also where the special registers of the
SuperCPU exist. The User's Guide already contains info on most of the
registers employed. The programmer's guide will go into more detail on
these, and will get into some of the system timing variances generated by
this chip. We won't document this chip 100%, though, as some signal
controls will change, and much of the info on this chip would only be
useful for someone trying to duplicate what we've done. There's a pretty
clear line between that info and what info on this chip is useful to
programmers, and the latter will be covered.

Our only planned option for this expansion connector is the extended
RAM/C128 daughterboard. Doing more than that was considered, but enclosure
considerations won out in the end. It may be feasible (physically) to have
two cards inside the unit, but I doubt you'd be able to put any SIMMs on
either of them.

Doing such a hack would pretty much require adding most of the circuitry
of a SuperCPU into the 128. I have serious reservations about calling that
kind of a hack 'fun'. Probably the easiest hack would be to try to
overclock the 128's own processor, update the RAM, then modify the ROM.
But I'm betting you'd still need to break all traces to the I/O circuitry
and put some custom logic in-between.

Guess we'll see. There are at least a few software authors interested in
doing things that weren't possible before. But a lot of the older apps are
suddenly much more usable, too.

I concur.

The picture and text didn't agree, yes. But the text was really meant to
indicate what the production unit would include, and that is the case. The
initial boards we used in-house and for beta testers were modified to take
the smaller ROM, but eventually all had to be switched back to production
standards to take the production ROM.

The main problem with this is that there's only room internally for
basically one board, and there's no external access to this port. Someone
could make their own custom internal card for the 64 version provided they
don't want the CMD extended RAM board for the SuperCPU, but on the 128
version, the connector will be used for the 128/RAM combo card.

To that degree, you're correct. Though info on the registers contained in
this chip have already been documented in the User's Guide, and some more
info on those and some system timing differences created by this chip will
be included in the programmer's guide.

These are issues that I believe will be addressed in the next CMD project
following the SuperCPU.

From what I gather following the events leading up to the Supercharger CD
project, Epyx bought the Supercharger titles when Starpath folded and then a
company called Bridgestone bought the Epyx stuff.  Bridgestone makes Christian
software of some sort, and they were nice enough to let Glenn Saunders put the
Atari 2600 Supercharger titles on a CD for distribution.

Well, thanks, but I knew all that. My original question was:
How do I get a 29 Read Error on a particular sector? Or, in other

Since I just found this group and my Dad sill uses his 128D and I saw
that CMD super CPU thing, and Dad does love making "old" things work
better, I plan on getting him the super CPU and a hard drive and a fast
modem.

 The question is what's the fastest modem people are using, and is there
a graphical browser (Geos-type maybe) that can be used?

thanks for any pointers

Sorry about that. I should have know an 'incoming' directory has only
CREATE and WRITE rights! I guess the disks will be transferred to the
proper location (/pub/cmb/vic20 or something like that), so when the
sysop's there return from their holiday, they will be reachable.

I really hoped that the files could be read from the incoming dir, but
I was wrong. However, I can't possibly send all requesters the 1,8MB
archive, they're just too many of them.

**************************************************************
************ THE COMMODORE 16/116/PLUS4 GAME LIST ************
**************************************************************

Here is my updated C-16 game list ! There are 273 cassettes,
27 disks and 5 cartridges on my list ! I would like to thank
everybody who helped me to complete it. But I still need your
help. Please send me a list of all games you have.

'*' means that I'm not sure if the game really exits, because
I have only seen the name on different old lists !

If you find a bug or can help me to remove some of the '*'s
please send me a mail !
