    Hi, Vela.

    Is it only a problem after login or before? If it's after login I can change you linefeed options in the terminal setup bit of the menu, or you can do it once you get to the menu

    It does it everywhere, I just normally haven't remembered to switch into character mode until I'm "inside". I'll give it a bash changing the setting.

    Just putting Risc OS Direct on my Pi4 which apparently can support the 24bit software I'll try ArcTerm and see how I get on.

    I'd be very interested to hear about serial support on that setup - I have been back-burnering a project for a while now involving the serial port because at the points where I have any time to look at it I'm away from the real hardware and the serial port isn't emulated by RPC...

    I've been pattern matching tropical bird print wallpaper for the past two days, anything is a welcome distraction from lining up bird beaks!

    That sounds awful. We got my mother in law in to do our wallpaper in the lounge, perfectly aligned and pattern matched. Then I dropped a door I was hanging and took a chunk out of the middle of one of the sheets so we had to get her back in to re-hang a middle sheet - oh how we laughed :\ She did an outstanding job, again, though!

    Hi, Paulie.

    What is the address again??? I've NEVER been able to connect - but I think I have it right. ???

    It's beebs.ddns.net:6502 - it seems to mainly run morning and evening, UK time, presumably when Vela's around to keep an eye on it :)

    I don't think I'd leave a 40 year old computer on all day, at least not since one of the RIFAs in my Beeb's power supply *violently* ejected the magic smoke!

    Cheers,

    BobW

    100%; I'm just on a different time zone... :P

    Glad yer enjoying the machine - I'll get there one day, no worries!

    Hey Paulie,

    It's beebs.ddns.net:6502 and the online status can be checked at beebs.ddns.net

    Take care,

    Yeah you're right no serial support, I thought it might support telnet like hearsay. I've not got far with Risc Direct on the Pi4 as it will not work with my HDMI to VGA adapter (even using the exact same settings in config.txt I use in the rpi3 and risc open). Once I'm finished here I'll put it on my rpi3 instead and see how it is then.
