Resistor #9

Closed pmar146 closed 4 years ago

pmar146 commented 4 years ago

The size of the resistor isn't clear in the image. Can you tell me what size you used?

likeablob commented 4 years ago

@pmar146 Hi, I'm using a 100 ohm resistor. That is a current-limiting resistor to adjust screen brightness, so the optimum value may vary.

Hi and thank your for the reply. I have printed the case and have a screen. Sadly my orange Pi is not the same as yours, so I am waiting on my new one to arrive. I love this little Mac. It is very cute.

My pleasure.Thank you for your feedback :+1: (I'd be happy if you could share the photos of your Mac.)

FYI, The Orange Pi used here is Orange Pi Zero +2 H3. For Orange Pi Zero +2 H5 (which has an arm64 CPU), you might need to recompile minivmac, at least.

pmar146 commented 4 years ago

Hi there again, I got my new OPi last week. Sadly they sent an H5 instead of H3. You mentioned I need to recompile minivmac. I have followed all your project on my Opi and I see you have 2 minivmacs in the minivmac folder. I haven’t tried to run them yet. I have just copied all my assets to the folder and that is where I stopped on your project on GitHub. I am not sure where to turn next. I haven’t connected my lcd yet. Just ssh through putty to get the job done so far.

I tried to upload pictures of my one, but I can’t put them on github. Where is the best place to post them.

Cheers and best wishes

@pmar146 Hi! Oops, I completely forgot to upload the source tarballs. Let me dig in my working dir...

Anyway, you can use the original author's Mini vMac Variations Service to generate a tarball and follow Build instruction to compile it.

Also, even if pre-compiled minivmac doesn't run on your H5 OPiZero, the other shell scripts (apps) for example sh.d/4_terminal.sh probably work well. So you may see xterm launched once you've correctly wired up the LCD and executed install.sh. To debug these scripts, you might want to do as follows.

$ cd ~/macmini/switcher
$ npm start # Start `switcher` script manually
$ curl -v http://localhost:5501/ # Switch to a next script
or 
$ cd ~/macmini/switcher/sh.d
$ sh 4_terminal.sh # The other scripts can be executed in the same way.

(BTW, to upload pictures, try to drag&drop a file to GitHub's comment box.

Here is my print of the case. I have been thoroughly enjoying this project.

likeablob commented 4 years ago

@pmar146 Hi, I've finally pushed the tarballs to here.

Thank you. Nicely printed! (BTW, Have you printed macintosh-mini-part-a.stl (a upper part) upside down? That part can be printed w/o supports when it's rotated so that the -X(front) side is facing down.

pmar146 commented 4 years ago

Hi likeablob I haven't printed the part that way round. I might give it a go when I get the pi sorted out. Thank you for the compliments too. Incidentally, this was the first print I have done with supports, so I am happy with it.

Thank you for posting the tar balls. I am downloading now.

I must compliment you on your soldering. This is not an easy thing to do on such a small ribbon cable.

Cheers and thanks

I tried make the tarball on the 320x240 and got the following error: gcc "src/MINEM68K.c" -o "bld/MINEM68K.o" -c -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wno-uninitialized -Wundef -Wstrict-prototypes -Os gcc "src/OSGLUXWN.c" -o "bld/OSGLUXWN.o" -c -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wno-uninitialized -Wundef -Wstrict-prototypes -Os In file included from src/OSGLUXWN.c:38:0: src/CNFGRAPI.h:16:10: fatal error: X11/Xlib.h: No such file or directory

include <X11/Xlib.h>

      ^~~~~~~~~~~~

compilation terminated. Makefile:12: recipe for target 'bld/OSGLUXWN.o' failed make: *** [bld/OSGLUXWN.o] Error 1

I am not sure what I did wrong there.

likeablob commented 4 years ago

@pmar146 Hi, In this case, try to install libx11-dev by sudo apt install libx11-dev. And if you face similar problems, try to google ${header name} ubuntu (in this case X11/Xlib.h ubuntu) or use apt-file command to determine a package name.
