Keywords: firmware Message-ID: <756@lee.SEAS.UCLA.EDU> Date: 11 Jun 90 23:47:50 GMT References: <4998@plains.UUCP> Sender: news@SEAS.UCLA.EDU Organization: SEASnet, University of California, Los Angeles Lines: 18 I have ran into something that I hope is not an incompatibility problem with the ROM 03 IIGS machines. I use TML Pascal II to write games for handicapped children and in order to use the TouchWindow (tm) I have to read values from the jostick port. To accomplish this I have been using a toolbox call to FWEntry to access the routine PREAD (at $FB1E). I works fine on the ROM 01 machines but does nothing on the ROM 03's. I went into the monitor (yes, after booting with GS/OS) on both machines and the information at 00/FB1E is different. I couldn't find an explanation for this in any manual although I don't really have anything on the ROM 03's that could contain warnings about using these routines. Anybody out there with the same problem?? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
