When comes uzix with z380 supports??

Are there z380 software for the z380 board from padial?

Is Uzix dead?

Is it possible z380 supports with InterNestor Lite??

The only known software to me for LPE-Z380 is my own GEMZ, Gameboy Emulator for MSX with Z380 :)

BTW, maybe it would be a cool idea for a Z380 mailinglist. This way users and developers can share experiences. For instance, it's unclear to me how many ppl actually own a Z380, so I'm not very well motivated to develop more...

Also I, as a developer, have a lot of questions about LPE-Z380 and EV4 which Padial seems to be unable to answer. There's a huge lack of documentation!

yeah, that's just the Padial problem , Lack of comunication (and also documentation).

Padial develops hardware without software?

That isn't so strange.. The guy who designed the MoonSound and Gfx9000 cartridges didn't write any software for them either.

Didn't Henrik Gilvad extend BASIC to support the GFX9000?

Anyway, it doesn't really matter who writes the software, but it really helps if there is some software for a new piece of hardware when it's released. In the case of the MoonSound, MBFM and MBWAVE enabled composers to start using the MoonSound immediately. Actually, I think that even today MoonBlaster is the only tracker for MoonSound, isn't it? Also, the MB replayer sources helped programmers getting to know the MoonSound.

I think it's a good idea to make such a mailinglist Guyver! I don't know either how many people own a z380 but I am afraid that I am the only one using your Gameboy emulator. (which by the way ROCKS BIG TIME!!!!!!!!)

where can i download z380 documentation, maybe i know somebody who want to programmed the z380 cpu supports for uzix? i contacted the developer of uzix he said to me is he will not supports uzix with z380, i dont understand why? unix family os must supports always several cpu's , because im alo linux support , , maybe i will contact the netbsd developers to develop a os for msx. i miss that also by netbsd. mnay old systems is running netbsd, but no msx system .

Quick reply: I will not write a OS core for a CPU I don't have. It's nonsense. How could I even test it?

BTW: if someone hacked openMSX to emulate Padial's Z380 CPU I could start such development. But I don't think there's someone so crazy to do such thing.
