After I read about the "game server" here I decided to try it. I don't have
a 2c and (at least for me) it failed on a 2e with a SuperSerial card.
Did anyone else try the combination?
I don't even understand how it could possibly work: the game server's driver
initializes the card for 115200 baud. This assumes a 1.8xxx MHz clock at the
RxC pin of the
6551. Looks like this pin is not even wired on an SS card :(
In addition if I just reboot the 2e and type IN#2 it shows "PR#2" on the
screen after
game server is started, but then beeps with a syntax error! The only way
around it
is issuing PR#2 from the keyboard first.
Why?
