Sorry, I've seen this question only today. Sure, whatever cable you please, the network "plug" on the RaspberryPi is autosensing so it detects automatically how is the wiring I'm waiting for your tests !
I'll let you know...it's probably going to be a little while off for me as I don't yet have a cabinet. I'm trying to piece together everything I need and this news happened to coincide around the same time. I've got a 2 Naomi motherboards, 2 Capcom I/O's with cables, a cart, and a Net Dimm. I'm now trying to line up what I need for this (Raspberry Pi/other components). It's still looking like I'm in need of a supergun/Sun PSU before I can actually officially test this. So if you have any leads let me know
And this is my dip switch selector... a little ugly but functional The hdmi cable is there for testing purpose. This is a minimal but functional distribution so you can login and in case run or modify the python scripts. What's not present is the graphical environment (and a lot of other things) just to remain at a minimum size. By the way, you can still run the games the old way, i.e. without dip switches as wrote on the site.
Uh... so you're putting all together right now ? For sure you need a PSU naturally, but it's not a normal unit, it needs a good 3.3v apart 5 and 12. So the first step is to make the game/cart you have run. There shoul be an audio amplifier too, but you can use anything you want for this. But I'm using a "naked" Naomi installation at the momento too, as you can see on the site... so it can be easily be done
humm i end with ERROR34 Gateway cannot be found. or constantly CHECKING NETWORK. The NetDimm is set to Remote ENABLE. my Dimm ver is 4.02 ... Naomi Bios EXPORT when i enter the network TEST MODE it gives REMOTE: BAD
Ah, so you don't actually have any of the controls hooked up at the moment so it's just the system, net dimm, PSU, and raspberry pi?
A picture is worth a thousand words So are you already set ? Have you all the things going ? Does the game/board (not the net dimm) works ?
Are you ready to debug a little ? First of all can you enable the log as wrote on the site and post it here ? Just to have an evidence if someone will try it in the future Then, could you have a monitor/tv and a keyboard attached to the Raspberry ?
Ah, and the pic you've how is ? Zeroed or another one ? I must admit my security chip should be a zeroed one but, reading from the triforetool.py I think any security chip should work well... I hope...
Perfect, two things: first enable the logging, restart all and please let me have the log file. Then, to log on the Raspi the user is "root" without password. Then you've to make a "ps" to see if there is a python process working. Uhm.... perhaps we need a skype chat... if you want
i for now disconnected the DIP switch and just put one file on the USB stick. I hope my file is decrypted , 0ed ??? enable loging ? how where ?
Read on the site, you've to create a configuration file in the same folder you've put the .bin images and write a line there... I’ve implemented a way to modify some parameters of the loader. First you have to create a file named naopi.cfg on the naopi folder of your USB memory (the same place where you’ve put your *.bin game images) Here you can write lines in the form of key=value using the following keys: logfile – the value will be the name of the log file that will be create on the naopi folder
Ok, so it probably crashed. You can now go to /etc/init.d/ and there run ./naopi I've sent you a pm with my skype... but please try to record the log before
So you've logged in, made the configuration file and started naopi, in this order ? Ok, now start again the Naomi board... you should see something on the screen and the log file will be created
Alright I've got a supergun by The Last Bandit on the way, once I get the PSU situation straightend out I should be good to test. I'm not sure I'll get it before you need to return your net dimm though.
Don't worry. Saturday I'll speak with the person who lent it to me and ask for an extension, there will be no problem I'm sure
Today I'll post a new release where I've put the loop on the triforcetools.py to avoid to use the key chip at all. Hope to hear you soo.. my only two tester Paolo
