Something that would be helpful would be to know which version of PINE your ISP uses. Mine uses v3.91, and I use NovaTerm v9.5 with no problem. Something else that could cause you trouble is if your PINE isn't configured right for the SMTP server.

Ah, but the problem is that these little gems of artistic endeavour aren't available for download, are they? So how does one who uses, as his/her sole computer, an 8-bit machine, view these masterpieces? Hm? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- * What, Me Clueless?

I've discovered how to convert t64 and p00 files manually... a little knowlegde of c64 file-structures is sooooo helpful. (If anyone desperately needs to know this just mail me.) The d64 format is simple to solve too, but I'dve had to write a program for that one... well this'll save me a lot of time. Thanks again. Um, while I'm here... has anyone got the original basic and kernal roms they'd be willing to mail me? I've got a 128 and two dead 64's, but I just don't have the time to program anything to tranfer them to my amiga! (I'd be sooooooo grateful.)

Alternatively and if you are looking for better quality, grab a WICO Boss or Command Control joystick - same type and construction as used in arcade machines... which of course take one heck of a beating. The CMD joysticks are not bad, but if you want NEVER to replace a joystick again, for C64/128, Amiga, Sega, Atari 8-bits, etc, go for a WICO product. If anyone is interested, I have two WICO Command Control Joysticks for sale, $15 each, US funds, plus shipping.

Normally on a 1541, programs on disks are interleaved 10 sectors apart. That means, when a sector is full, the next sector the drive will write to is ten sectors away on the same track, until the track is full whereupon it switches to another track and repeats the process. On a 1571 drive when used in 1571 (128) mode, the interleave is not ten, it is around 7 or 4 or 5... I don't remember the number to be exact, but that's not the issue. What happens next is when you try to read a 1541 disk in 1571 mode or vice versa, the drive has to seek the next sector longer because it isn't where it should be according to how it normally operates. With JiffyDOS, all the numbers change, but the principal is still the same, and in most cases, there is still a difference in sector interleave between 1541 and 1571 modes, even on single sided disks. So what is happening in the above scenario? Well, if you turn on your 128 and 1571, the 1571 is actually NOT yet in 1571 mode. It takes a true 1571 command request to switch the drive over to 1571 mode. After that, the drive forever stays in 1571 mode unless you turn the power off, or issue a change mode command to the drive... I think a reset works as well. So knowing that the drive is now in 1571 mode after using a 128 mode program, you can see that entering 64 mode without changing the status of the drive via a command or reset will yield a 64 computer running a 1571 drive in 1571 mode. This of course means that the drive and the disk usually will not agree on how far apart sequential data sectors shoudl be stored on the disk and therefore the drive in 1571 mode will generally take longer to load programs from a 1541 disk than if you were to change the drive mode back as well. The reason it works fine after booting in 128 mode then going to 64 mode immediately all relates back to the fact that a 1571 drive starts in 1541 mode and needs to be told to change to 1571 mode before it will do so. Something as simple as a directory command should change it to 1571 mode. to change between modes, probably using the reset button is your safest bet without powering down. #! rnews 1052 Path: pravda.aa.msen.com!spool.mu.edu!usenet.eel.ufl.edu!news-res.gsl.net!news. gsl.net!nntp.coast.net!news.kei.com!newsfeed.internetmci.com!newsreader.sprintl ink.net!news.sprintlink.net!news-pen-4.sprintlink.net!hpg30a.csc.cuhk.hk!news. cuhk.edu.hk!newsfeeder.ust.hk!nntp.hk.super.net!tst.hk.super.net!usenet From: "Merlin" Newsgroups: comp.sys.cbm Subject: Frak Date: Thu, 11 Jul 1996 13:59:15 +0800 Organization: Hong Kong SuperNET Lines: 12 Message-ID: <01bb6eee.1769c4a0$260301c0@INNET002.swirebev.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: 202.64.246.18 X-Newsreader: Microsoft Internet News 4.70.1085 I remember in the old days, playing a game called Frak you were this beast with a yo yo who had to climb around the platforms, yo yoing all the other animals etc, picking up stuff and finally finding the end of the level.

This is true. The reason is that accessing the 1571 using burst-mode protocol (which only a 128 can do) will switch the drive into 1571 mode. In 1571 mode, the drive is double-sided by default, and the internal CPU steps up to a speed of 2 MHz. If you enter C64 mode without resetting the drive or sending it a command to force it into 1541 mode, it will remain in 1571 mode, and most fast-loader programs will fail, because they cannot stay in sync due to the 1571's 2 MHz rate. Programs will usually pretend the drive is non-1541-compatible, and just use the slow serial bus methods. It is surprising that even a JiffyDOS-loaded drive will do this, but Commodore equipment is always full of surprises. :) -- David DeSimone == Fuzzy Fox == fox@metronet.com == http://www.metronet.com/~fox (PGP: 768/29DAD4E1 1996/02/12 == FP: 5B47 349F 3B9A B00D ABA6 15F1 BBBE 8C44) Foxes are people too! | "My shoes are too tight," he said.
