Hello,
Please add to the HECnet nodelist:
7.79 BITXT0 TOPS-20(PANDA) - KLH10 - Raspbery Pi
Done.

I am running this simulator in the same Pi which currently holds 5 more VMs. I will see if
it keeps stable, and if it does I will run it permanently.
Issues to solve
- KLH10 does not idle in the Pi. I'll check the idler device code to see if I can
guess what is happening.
- I tried to give KLH10 its own bridge device, plugged into the rest of my network via VDE
switches and plugs, but it does not work. I have lots of IPBLP bugchecks and IP networking
is unusable (weird enough, DECNET and LAT seem to work). It works fine if I use the main
host interface in non-exclusive mode (but then I don't get LAT).
- KLH10 frontend can't load *.EXE files.
- TOPS-10 does not run well. I used a x86 KLH to dump the load code in SAV format and then
I can boot TOPS-10, but it hungs after a while.
On the other hand, I'm thinking about building a blinkenlights device using the GPIO
pins of the Rasp-pi basing it on the actual parallel port blinkenlights panel driven by
the "lites" device... :) It could be another nice hobby project...
