A600GS & A1200NG / Re: AmiBrowser & broken JavaScript keyboard events
« Last post by broadblues on February 24, 2026, 11:35:19 AM »
OK added a extra layer of debug:

  END doesn't report at all

Doesn't generate a RawKey event at all so that will be why.

    PageUp reports as ScrollLock, too
    PageDown doesn't report at all

I have this the other way round PAGEDOWN generates RawKey 95 (ie it's mapped to scroll lock AKA known as HELP in amiga keyboard context on OS4 atleast) PAGEUP emits no event

    ScrollLock doesn't report at all

Doesn't emit a rawkey event.

    PRINT doesn't report at all

Also no RawKey event,


F11 Is mapped to RawKey 13 (backslash)

HOME and INSERT are mapped to 102 103 ie Left and Rght Amiga.


So these "errors"  the result of the default keyboard emulation.

```
    NumPad9 reports as NumPad8        -  SHOULD BE IN NEXT RELEASE FIXED REVERSED CODE order in table
    NumPad8 reports as ScrollLock        - FIXED ditto
...

```
    F11 reports as Backslash                  - my test in cefclient shows correct hardware code in table,
    INSERT reports as MetaLeft             - my test in cefclient shows correct hardware code in table,
    HOME reports as MetaRight             -  my test in cefclient shows correct hardware code in table,
    END doesn't report at all
    PageUp reports as ScrollLock, too
    PageDown doesn't report at all
    ScrollLock doesn't report at all
    PRINT doesn't report at all
```

These are  more complex the codes in the table are correct based on the key events generated on the linux side, it may be there is some translation happening between the linux keyboard and the rawkey emitted inside the emulation.

My table originally mapped RawKeys (sent by MKShare from AmigaOS4) to linux uinput events, it's 99% accurate insofar as the correct key events occure on the linux side when an amigaos4 key is pressed. So I filled in the entries in reverse to create the newtranslation of rawkey to lowlevl hardware key.

I'll  have to add a extra debug layer to see what RawKey I get inside the AmiBench layer. Perhaps these spacial keys have been traslated by AmiBerry to look more like an amiga keyboard.

```
    CapsLock doesn't seem to invoke "OnKeyDown" and "OnKeyUp" but with every keypress, it switches between the two (while "OnKeyPress" being with "OnKeyDown")
```
I'll bet RawKey events are only being created on transitions of the key state here as it;s a locking key.. tempted to blame input device for that one (without hard evidence :-))

```
ESC closes the browser, even if event.preventDefault() is called (but I guess that's a bit of another issue)
```

This key is intercepted by MUI before it can be sent to the browser engine, it may r may not be possible to listen for that javascript call later on.

After fitting a D.K. Video Crisper RGB video buffer, which I hear is 15khz only; to the RGB port of my A1200 OS 3.9, before a Scandex doubler, I have no video signal; HDD activity stops, about when WB is loaded in startup.

I am using an external Scandex doubler to TFT monitor for both CGA and VGA modes. I tried a second Scandex and no change.

The Early boot menu shows but invisible mouse pointer. Floppy boot is the same.

From this thread: https://forum.amiga.org/index.php?topic=73237.0 I followed Oldsmobile Mikes' suggestion of swapping the ROM's for new ones and Accelerator card and PSU. Also disconnected mouse and Joystick. No Change unfortunately.  ???

Suggestions Welcome. TIA.

Hi,

Welcome to the forum!

That is a nice collection for sure! Please let us know how it goes with the 2500 and the monitor. The computer might have some neat upgrades under the hood. 8) And.. nice list of games there!

This should be largely fixed in the ext update.

Hey, this is excellent news!
I have now updated to the lastest version of AmiBrowser (46.38) and did some more testing. Here are the results:
  • NumPad9 reports as NumPad8
  • NumPad8 reports as ScrollLock
  • F11 reports as Backslash
  • INSERT reports as MetaLeft
  • HOME reports as MetaRight
  • END doesn't report at all
  • PageUp reports as ScrollLock, too
  • PageDown doesn't report at all
  • ScrollLock doesn't report at all
  • PRINT doesn't report at all
  • CapsLock doesn't seem to invoke "OnKeyDown" and "OnKeyUp" but with every keypress, it switches between the two (while "OnKeyPress" being with "OnKeyDown")
  • ESC closes the browser, even if event.preventDefault() is called (but I guess that's a bit of another issue)
When using a german keymap, some values for Z and Y are still reported switched, but not all. Let's take key Y (between T and U) as an example: It is correct, that "Code" always reports "KeyY", no matter the keymap of the OS, and this works correctly. But for "KeyChar" and "Key", all events should report a "Z" for a german keymap. Currently this works only for "Key" value of event "OnKeyPress" correctly, all other events still report a "Y".

I tested with two different keyboards, just to be sure. Both gave the same results.
Just as a sidenote: TAWS doesn't convert any keycodes back or forth. As this is not emulation but "simply" (haha) a web page.

Keep up the good work, just a few more little glitches to go! ;)

Cheers,
Michael

Congrats.  Have you tested the 2500? Might want to check the battery has been removed or replaced.

A600GS & A1200NG / Re: Issue with my Amigakit Order
« Last post by amigakit on February 23, 2026, 10:15:32 AM »
We have had a lot of orders for the A1200NG and we are building, configuring, flashing and testing each board in the sequence that customer placed the order with us.   Your board is assembled in the latest batch.  However it is just waiting to configure it for your specific needs.  At the same time we are developing a new system update - as you may have seen on the weekly updates we provide here.  The A1200 NG and A600GS are large projects that we are investing many hours into every week.   I am hopeful you will enjoy using the system.  Thank you for your patience.

A600GS & A1200NG / Issue with my Amigakit Order [Fixed]
« Last post by X-death on February 23, 2026, 06:53:21 AM »
Hello,

I would like to request a clear update regarding my Amiga 1200 NG order ( AK-21853 ? ) placed on November 24, 2025 to EUR.

Aside from the initial payment confirmation email, I have not received any official communication about the status of my order. In late December, I contacted AmigaKit privately and was informed that November orders were being processed at this time. Since then, there has been no further communication.

I fully understand that delays can happen, especially with specific hardware projects like this one. However, several months without any official update is concerning. Customers should reasonably expect transparent communication and at least an estimated delivery window.

The product itself looks very promising, but professionalism and customer experience are just as important as the hardware.

I respectfully ask for a clear status update and an estimated timeframe for delivery.

I am aware that it is not particularly pleasant to read this kind of message, and I also understand that a forum is not primarily intended to serve as a customer support or order tracking platform. However, posting here is also a way to seek transparency and share part of the user experience around the product.

My intention is not to be confrontational, but simply to obtain clarity and better visibility regarding my order.

Thank you in advance for your time and clarification.
