    Hello all, I just stumbled upon this: https://github.com/mhx/dwarfs Could DwarFS become a replacement for SquashFS, as used in PNDs and (if I remember correctly) DBPs ? Cheers, Magic Sam

    New copper cases are finally being assembled

    @jedi23 : I managed to install Debian 12 "Bookworm" on the Pyra :) Only one hard crash so far (just after running apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade). Are @aTc and @hns still in charge of the OS ? I'd like to report some bugs ;) Cheers, Magic Sam

    Hi all, @ptitSeb : is this port worth a try on the Pyra ? https://github.com/emileb/d3es-multithread I guess I'll buy DooM 3 on GOG, much easier to install than the DVD version :) Cheers, Magic Sam

    Beta Anarch

    Hi all, @atari_afternoon : I have finally beaten the second level ! It's a real maze and orientation in 3D is not my strong suit. Level 3 resembles DooM more IMHO :) Cheers, Magic Sam

    Beta Anarch

    Hi all, @M-HT : thanks for your suggestions, I'll give them a try over the week-end :) Setting the resolution to something closer to the actual screen size was already on my TODO list, hence the "Beta" tag. Cheers, Magic Sam
