An E3 which thinks it's a Spectrum!
by Martin Whitaker 14 Feb '07

14 Feb '07

I've been playing with the E3 some more and couldn't resist compiling libspectrum and Fuse for it (from http://fuse-emulator.sourceforge.net/fuse.php) It runs it at about original speed, however it's going flat-out doing that and increasing the emulation speed above 100% seems to make little difference. A couple of screen-shots are at: http://www.whitakernet.com/e3/spectrum_on_e3_1.jpg http://www.whitakernet.com/e3/spectrum_on_e3_2.jpg I had to make a few simple changes to Fuse to get it to work with the strange resolution framebuffer of the e3. If anyone wants to build Fuse themselves let me know and I'll post the patches here. All of this is totally pointless, of course, but it bought back memories typing single-keystroke commands using a rubber keyboard!!!

Patches for 2.6.19
by Martin Whitaker 14 Feb '07

14 Feb '07

Hi Folks, I've updated some of the E3 patches so they apply cleanly to 2.6.19, I haven't added any extra functionality or made any major changes. Most of the E3 functionality is now in the omap tree, the only extra patches required are for the pull-out keyboard, camera and modem: The patches should be applied in the following order: patch -p1 < patch-2.6.19-omap1.patch patch -p1 < ams-delta-keyboard.patch patch -p1 < ams-delta-camera.patch patch -p1 < ams-delta-modem.patch Noodles: Feel free to make these available on the normal E3 download location if you want... Alternativly they are available here: http://www.whitakernet.com/E3-2.6.19-patches.tar.gz Regards, Martin.

Further, I think that within five years, no-one will care where each function is transacted. This staggering threefold increase in candidate interest has been achieved in just nine months - coinciding with the period in which consultancy recruitment demand has been at its most buoyant.
