Re: Turrican II AGA Scrolling Issues

Yes, but if your sole contributions to the forum are complaining about something not working (you see this with github users too), don't be surprised if you get short shrift.

I've seen numerous times on this forum when talking about a problem/request results in a positive outcome (or at least an attempt at achieving one).

Re: Manually Configuring Wireless Adapter

Do you have a "normal" linux box (or failing that windows) you can test it in?

Re: Portable HDMI Screens for Vertical Alignment

Looks good, thanks.

I recently powered my mister from a pinepower PSU (recommended btw) which shows the power draw and it's ridiculous how light it is.

Portable HDMI Screens for Vertical Alignment

I'm considering getting a portable HDMI screen like the MSI Optix MAG162V so I can easily vertically align it.

Does anyone else run a similar setup?

A Script to Organize ROMs by Filename

If you have a large directory with 100s or 1000s of roms, this script will create subdirectories a b c d etc and move the files in there, based on the first letter of their filename: https://github.com/jamespo/directorysorter Files beginning with numbers go into a 0-9 directory & everything else goes into an _others directory. Written in Python...

Re: Griffin Powermate USB "Dial" Not Recognized
