Re: My Dreamcast mod Console ,controller,VMU,
Cool one there! The controller makes me remember this: http://www.segagagadomain.com/Segagaga-Store/others-hard/dcpadlep-p1.jpg Hehe, I was just watching that Shmups documentary again yesterday, and when they are at G-Grev, they show a DC development box with one of those controllers plugged in :)

Re: Convert a coders cable from serial to usb?
How do you know that your cable uses a Prolific chip? I could not find much info on device id 4348:5523, only that people cannot get it to work under Linux or MacOS. If the chip is indeed the Prolific PL-2303, but the id was changed, then forcing the driver to accept the id might work: modprobe pl23...

Re: Convert a coders cable from serial to usb?
Does it still not work for you? Here is what happens with the FTDI chip after I plug in the cable: all drivers are loaded automatically and the /dev/ttyUSB0 device file exists afterwards.

Re: Convert a coders cable from serial to usb?
See if the device file shows up in /dev:
ls /dev/tty*
Also try to re-plug the cable that should trigger activation of the drivers. Look at your kernel log to see if there is maybe a problem (command dmesg or cat /var/log/messages)

Re: Convert a coders cable from serial to usb?
Make sure the driver was loaded (should happen automatically), the command lsmod should show "pl2303" somewhere. Then make sure you are using the correct device. dc-tool defaults to /dev/ttyS0. With my FTDI chip the device is called /dev/ttyUSB0 or so.

Re: Convert a coders cable from serial to usb?
Basically, the USB cables by Axlen and Chaos work similar to generic USB to serial converters, they use the same chip that is used in many converters (FTDI BM232). The coders cable should work with a generic converter at up to 112Kbit/s. Axlen's circuit should work reliably at up to ~500Kbit/s. Chao...

Re: Dreamcast 3D Homebrew
Perhaps the location of my project files is important? I originally had them in My Documents somewhere, but now I've moved them into cygwin/home/(my name). I don't think that is important... but maybe? Spaces in file names and paths can definitely be an issue. Post your Makefile and also the output...

Re: Lua on Dreamcast issue.
henzenmann - Yeah, the multiple states thing is what I've been trying to avoid, though. Multiple lua states could get kinda pricey on the RAM and processor. Why do you think that? In my tests, memory consumption goes up about 4K with each state, so RAM overhead should be negligible. I cannot quite ...
