Best community for PDP11 nerds?
Hey everyone - still working on my /73. I posted to the VCF forums about a cache error I'm getting ( see https://forum.vcfed.org/index.php?threads/pdp-11-73-m8190-cache-error-on-pow... ) - but I'm not getting any traction there. Do ya'll have suggestions for an active community or forum I could work with? (Or if you have any ideas on the problem, I'd love to hear them here :) Error 62 M8190 CPU Cache Error Thanks! -d -- Dave Shevett shevett@pobox.com
Dave, Have you tried cctech/cctalk? That’s where I usually go for PDP discussions. - Alex On Mar 9, 2022 at 8:28:07 AM, Dave Shevett via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

That only works for about 2 responses, then it degenerates into wildly off-topic. On Wed, 9 Mar 2022, Alexander Jacocks via vcf-midatlantic wrote:

Is there a dedicated PDP list? TUHS is the only other place that I can think of. - Alex On Mar 9, 2022 at 2:01:34 PM, Mike Loewen via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

I was hoping to leverage /r/pdp on reddit, but it's mostly dead. The VCF forum was hopeful as well - i mean, we're working on 40 year old machines here, so the pool of fokls who know this stuff is shrinking :( On Wed, Mar 9, 2022 at 3:41 PM Alexander Jacocks via vcf-midatlantic <vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

Yeah, we don’t have a ton of PDP discussions on the VCForum, for some reason. - Alex On Mar 9, 2022 at 3:48:12 PM, Dave Shevett <shevett@pobox.com> wrote:

UNIX is only one (or rather a few) of the PDP-11 OSs, and not one of the more common ones, would such discussion really be welcome on that list? -Dave On March 9, 2022 3:41:36 PM Alexander Jacocks via vcf-midatlantic <vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

I recently joined the DEC Users facebook group and it seems pretty active. Not sure how deeply technical it gets, and of course it is not strictly PDP-11 focused... -----Original Message----- From: vcf-midatlantic <vcf-midatlantic-bounces@lists.vcfed.org> On Behalf Of Dave Shevett via vcf-midatlantic Sent: Wednesday, March 09, 2022 8:28 AM To: vcf-midatlantic <vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> Cc: Dave Shevett <shevett@pobox.com> Subject: [vcf-midatlantic] Best community for PDP11 nerds?
