Siamese RTG v2.5
Ok, please don't tar & feather me here peeps!
Got my lovely new A1200 - '060, Scsi, Fast ATA, networked, lots of memory. Spent a little while refurbing it so it looks new. ( yes, I'm that sad ) Generally v. pleased. Problem is I've gotten quite spoiled with running AOS under RTG. ( I have a CD32 for games ) AGA is not doing it for me... Thinks... Internal RTG card? Doesn't have to be great, just a little more colour @ something like 800x600 or 1024x768... None that I can find! Bugger! I won't put it in a tower. Got towers coming out of my ears! ( it's an unfortunate condition don't-you-know ) Was thinking if a cheapie internal RTG board would make for a good hardware project - as if Zetr0 & narmi aren't busy enough! ![]() Then the light dawns: Siamese RTG v2.5! All my putes are networked. I've got this damn-big PC that actually gets used for very little... Maybe it would serve as a GFX card? ![]() And finally: Onto my question... I can't find a copy anywhere! ![]() Not to buy, not on the net. I WANT RTG! But oh no, not yet! ( Sorry, Dr Sues moment there ) Any clues? Does any kind body feel like 'zoning' it if that's appropriate. ![]() Mind you, I'm expecting Zetr0's latest gizmo will be of great help on the quality front. ![]() Last edited by Charlie; 15 September 2007 at 11:55.

@Charlie
Hello there my friend ![]() I have Siamese systems 2.1, wich is limmited over serial, the 2.5 allows for tcp-ip action. I wonder if the handelr could be used with a tcp-ipstack... the amiga's 10mbit would be a HUGE increase compaired to Amiga Serial. If you wany I can postie a disk out or image it and have it somewhere for you to d/l... ... atleast you will get an overview and see if siamese is for you.. I will be running this little (or 2.5) on an internal SBC when i get my power miggy up and running.... (to damn cool) I am about to update the Narmi External (for the last time ![]() ![]() okies now off to zippity up siamese ![]() I am sorry oto hear/read that you are afflicted with the "Towers-comming-out-of-ears" syndrome... its quite sad... I have been receiving medical treatment for "desktops-comming-out-of-my -aahhhh..." perhaps not best to discuss that in open forum... LOL hmmm internal graphics card would be something i would love to make.... I would look at starting arround a PCI 4mb virgie S3 (since its quite well supported / documented ) and have it connect on a simple trapdoor adapter... food for thought me thinks... I have to admit, Although i appreciate the Kudos, had Narmi not inspired me and in all truth poke me when i had borked it I doubt it would of come to fruition LOL ![]() ![]() I do however, look forward to hacking one of those CRT/TFT tuner units though... i am sure it would take an RGB signal (just needs a little incentive thats all) ![]() |

As usual Zetr0: Thanks!

I'd also like to get my paws on 2.5 since my original went tits up.
Nearly forgot about it but now I'm in the mood fiddling around with it again. ![]() |

The PC side of things is pre-xp and so is a little awkward with anything over 9x

On a more sane note: Did I notice you mention in a previous thread that the 'link' can be made via SCSI? This would be good! ( speed ). Is it obvious? I'm only just about to play with this software for the first time... Thanks. |

Yeah, but no where near as good as UW SCSI on CSMKIII/PPC
