New release r5.4RC4: https://github.com/josch1710/RespeQt/releases/tag/r5.4RC4 This Release Candidate fixes a bug, where a settings value could not be read. There also was some work done on the Disk Browser feature.

Can somebody owning a 400MINI create USB sticks formatted with an EXT2 and and XFS filesystem AND create symlinks on them pointing to /. Maybe the console not only mounts FAT32 sticks but also such with an official Linux filesystem. And (another) maybe it follows symlinks when browsing the external USB stick. Then we could browse and (another) maybe find a way to extract the internal filesystem.

@Ben from Plaion should know about this (and hopefully fix it soon). If the problem is not bad emulation but caused by a bad image as @www.atarimania.com suggests, I am happy to supply a working Diaperboy crack.

Did someone play M.U.L.E. in Tournament mode? I just saw a German test on YouTube where it showed major emulation problems. The MULE shop doesn't show any MULE, the titles of the LAND shop and of its left neighbor are completely butchered. Can someone please verify that?

Errm, you know that there are plug-only adapters from DVI to HDMI?

This works already with the "original" Eclaire Mini. I always used a wireless keyboard with mine. The main problem is that you quickly need an USB hub because the board contains only two USB ports. Might be an option if its design would not be closed.

Most probably the FujiNet boots slower than your 800 expects it to. Do the tape-trick: Press Start when the 800 makes its coldstart like booting from a tape. It will then wait for you to start the tape. (Obviously) don't start any tape but wait a moment and press Reset again; this time without pressing Start. It should go through another coldstart but this time the FujiNet will be ready. IIRC there was a recent change to firmware making the FN boot faster. Therefore if the above worked for you, try a firmware update and see if this fixes your problem.

Try BASIC Rev. A. I cannot verify it currently but this might help.

Then you only need a honey who shrinks yourself, so you can type on it. 🤪

Give it a try with @Farb's tool. If you have something which is not yet preserved, please let me know. Thanks You can verify it there: https://www.a8preservation.com

Altirra Since Altirra can write to ATXs, you can try to use one of the (emulated) enhancements for a 1050 inside Altirra to copy your PRO to an ATX. I never tried to do this but do guess that it should work.

I expected it to come in a bagy for the complete retro feeling.

SIO2SD has a two line LCD display and you have to select your images with the buttons on the device. AFAIK no support for ATX or CAS files. SDrive (without Max) has no display at all and is configured by an embedded ATR which has to be booted from the Atari. You select the image you like and boot again. Dunno about ATX and CAS support. SDrive Max has the same functionality as SDrive but can also be configured on a local LCD display. Supports ATX and CAS files.

This happens if you camp below the dragon. 🔥

WOW, never heard of this one.

@Mr Robot might help here.

@holgibo Shouldn't this thread be pinned instead of the 2023 thread?

Just for completeness: Since you are located in Sweden and Switzerland, I suppose that you have PAL machines. Correct?

Then welcome here. People try to archive all software and collaterals of these early programs. For Atari 8-Bits this is a8preservation.com and atarimania.com. Some time ago we had a discussion whether the game's title is STRATOS or STRÄTOS (with an umlaut) and based on the package and manual decided on STRÄTOS. Do you remember if this is correct?

@foft People on the ABBUC forum ask if this is the demo you had problems with: https://www.atarimania.com/demo-atari-400-800-xl-xe-joyride_s11309.html If yes, then two members started it successfully via RespeQt. Are you willing to either jump over to the ABBUC forum or on JoSch's discord for RespeQt? Copying the communication back and forth between ABBUC and here is not really effective.

Should be findable quite easy inside the ATR if there are only two ST? COLBK with an LD? #$32 right before. Is it STRÄTOS by A.I.?
