Thibr Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Nice ! Don't forget to grab a RJ45 cable to hook up your ST to your LAN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fletch Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 That looks awesome. I don't suppose it works with the Falcon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thibr Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Well it's not designed for Falcon but Jookie is planning on meeting this demand later on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Android8675 Posted August 4, 2014 Author Share Posted August 4, 2014 That looks awesome. I don't suppose it works with the Falcon? Probably will eventually, it just plugs into the DB-19 HDD port on the ST, runs with a RaspberryPI so I'm sure adding compatibility is pretty easy. I haven't even booted the thing up yet, just powered it on to make sure it goes to ready state. I'm really looking forward to playing around with it. Planning to wire up my VGA monitor at some point, hopefully this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

English Invader Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Just googled it and it looks like one hell of a device: http://joo.kie.sk/?page_id=384 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marakatti Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 It's a superb piece of hardware. Have been running mine for about a month now. All i could ask for is the support for long filenames when running ST and MSA images. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DarkLord Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Jookie (as usual) has been superb about after market support. He's constantly releasing fixes and updates, over at Atari Forum. I've got one, quality is great, I've just not had a chance to take my STacy apart and install it. Can't wait for that though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Android8675 Posted September 3, 2014 Author Share Posted September 3, 2014 I bought a din connector to hook up my vga monitor last week and somehow managed to loose it between my office desk and my home office desk. My ST plans are on hold, I just don't have the time these days. I heard becoming a dad can be stressful and time consuming... I'd love to find an ST monitor on ebay for local pickup, problem is my desk is so full these days, gonna have to re-organize if I ever find the time. -A.

English Invader Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 What are the hardware requirements for this device? I assume TOS isn't an issue because (if I'm understanding correctly) the Cosmos replaces TOS with a version of Linux. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you do install it in your Stacy, could you document it some with a few pics and comments? I'm sure we all would like to so your ongoing Stacy upgrades.

I assume TOS isn't an issue because (if I'm understanding correctly) the Cosmos replaces TOS with a version of Linux. I don't know about that, my Cosmos plugs into the HDD port and has a bridgeboard connected between the keyboard and the mainboard which I assume allows you to connect USB keyboards/mice and possibly other devices (joysticks?) to the cosmos for use with the ST. It's a networking device, I don't think it replaces TOS at all. The Cosmos is built around a RaspberryPi, which of course is running Linux. Works with most STs as I understand it.

TXG/MNX Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 (edited) I read this device would let you use usb keyboard and mouse without a driver like the eifel interface ? How does this work, cosmosex is externally connected? can replace your keyboard, mouse and joysticks: just plug in a USB keyboard, mouse or joysticks to USB slot and you can use them with your ST (just like you would with Eiffel interface). But the best news is that you don’t have to replace all of them if you need only some of them – use USB joystick and USB mouse along with your original keyboard (or any other combination) – the USB peripherals are injected in the original peripherals data stream. No driver on ST needed, so this will work with games, too! I found already some video's on the webpage of jookie, really nice I was saving for a few eifels now I gonna do it for cosmosex, but I recently bought some netusb's aswell... these getting useless I guess..

I assume TOS isn't an issue because (if I'm understanding correctly) the Cosmos replaces TOS with a version of Linux. From some of the message threads I've read over at Atari Forum (which seems to be having problems right now), I wouldn't recommend anything less than TOS v1.04. People using 1.0 and 1.2 seem to be having difficulties... No, it doesn't replace TOS with Linux. Linux is used on the Raspberry device, and you can actually log on to that, so Linux is "on board", but your Atari is still an Atari running TOS (thank goodness!).
