⊳ Get the most out of MSXHub - 2019-10-12 14:48:22

In this post I’ll introduce MSXHub and how to use it in a very “linuxy” way just by organizing our packages a bit. You’ll need an MSX with MSX-DOS (probably in a flashcart) along with a network card and your fingers.

Introduction to MSXHub

MSXHub is a superb repository tool for our MSX Systems that allows us to download MSX software (tools, games…) directly from our MSX without needing a computer. We just need a UNAPI compatible network card and a flashcart to run the software over MSX-DOS.

Some cool breaks for you

⊳ Multiline support in weechat - 2019-09-03 16:00:52

By default weechat doesn’t support multiline messages, but you can have that using the multiline.pl. In order to install it just run weechat and write /script. There you’ll see a lot of nice scripts to customize weechat. Write multiline and press return to filter the plugins by that keyword. Then just select it if it’s not selected already and then write i then return. Then you’ll have multiline enabled :).

⊳ Raspbian 9 and librtlsdr-dev package - 2019-08-19 13:12:15

I tried to install librtlsdr-dev package and for some reasons I got a nasty error:

> sudo apt-get install librtlsdr-dev
...
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 librtlsdr-dev : Depends: libusb-1.0-0-dev but it is not installable

I noticed that there was no lib-usb-1.0-0-dev package, so the repository is inconsistent. So what I did was to install the package from Debian Stretch that can be downloaded from here.

You can install it as follows:

⊳ Lo-Fi Zelda - 2019-08-19 07:57:40

It’s cool to see how fitting is this song with the Lo-Fi/Vaporwavish style.

⊳ Boards of Canada - Sunshine Recorder - 2019-07-31 11:00:06

Probably one of my favourites amongst Boards of Canada sounds. It fits perfect with Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World, a novel by Haruki Murakami. The ambient fits perfectly with the setting described in the book, most of it quite unsettling, yet really enjoyable.

⊳ MIDIval PunditZ - 2019-07-26 11:52:28

Reviewing the Deep Asian Breaks video I went to do some searching on the authors of the tracks… and I found this nice piece of music:

I hope you enjoy it :)

⊳ Changing MSX HB-T7 Power Supply Unit - 2019-07-09 08:03:18

Hellllooooo everyone!

I’m alive, again. Maki asked me to make a blog post about how we changed the MSX HitBit T7 japanese power supply unit (from now on PSU) for a more modern and european one. So, let’s do this.

Victor Muñoz followed this post (plus the discussion we have had on email) and did this mod. He has shared with me a PDF containing the tutorial he has made. So check this for additional notes and photos so it’s clearer.
