A600GS & A1200NG / Re: usb hub advice
« Last post by balrog74 on December 24, 2025, 07:59:34 PM »
I use an Orico branded 4 port USB 3.0 hub (USBORC1001), plugged into the vertical USB port. Anything similar spec'd would be fine I'd think.

Here is some additional info:

The free ARMv9 core is definitly attractive, however MNT itself seems not to develop anything for it. There was a notice past year that someone planned to use it for wolfSSL, but no idea how far that project made progress.

Amiga Hardware Issues and discussion / Advice needed on Flicker Fixed for Amiga 2000?
« Last post by Retronaut on December 24, 2025, 01:20:31 PM »
Hey, so I have a Piccollo SD64 RTG card, and it works fine. Only issue is passthrough cable shows NOTHING, I am informed it needs a flicker fixed to get the Amiga's native output up to the same Hz level as native VGA. That being said, does anyone know of a solution for this, an external or internal Flicker-Fixer?

Thanks for the link, sounds like a mixed bag. Well, it appears with the latest model and firmware it IS good, so.... hrm

Just wondering if anyone here has one of these graphics cards installed in their Amiga?
https://shop.mntre.com/products/zz9000-for-amiga-preorder

I have been eyeing one for a couple of years. What puts me off is the extra items it has, such as USB, which I understand STILL do not work for it. Is this project abandonware? In the sense that they still make it and sell, it but that they have not fulfilled the hardwares potential.

Views welcome!

Had one. Only to discover it was a PITA! But this was one of the earlier models which I discovered needed something doing on the power rail or it could fail….

I believe the Network side isn’t as good as a X-Surf100 by Indivision. I couldn’t get mine to work.
Yes the USB is only a Bootable device? Couldn’t get the RTG to work, but the native Amiga side looks nice.

On a plus side. You can still buy these and download and get firmware updates.

If you are to buy one. Make sure it is a later model of the card with the power fix.
