@Sarnau Would you mind sharing the serial number of your ST Book? Do you have both the motherboard's and case serials? 🙂

@Sarnau Amazing! Now, if we could find that damn 120 pins connector... :-)

@Sarnau Yes, repairing it has been a challenge. Fortunately, all the electronics are working now, so I feel good about that. And, of course, the rarity of the ST Book makes it even harder because, depending on what's broken, you may not be able to find it (like the LCD screen).

Do you have a diagnostic board specifically for the ST Book? If so, where did you find it? 🙂

@Sarnau Thanks! It was fun to learn about the LCD, how it works and find the reason (and solution) of the missing pixels.

@Sarnau I think those are the ones I mention in my post, right?

“Less than an hour after Biden detailed the Israeli proposal, Netanyahu’s office insisted Israel would not end the war until Hamas is defeated and “all of its goals are achieved.”

Wait does this mean Israel is already backing out of its own proposal?? Again??

Meanwhile both parties have invited Netanyahu to address Congress as Israel continues to bomb civilians. What an utter disgrace.

Just finished building PAL-1, a replica of the first computer using a 6502 processor, KIM-1 (designed by Chuck Peddle of MOS Technologies).
It is super interesting, because you can program it in machine language on the included keyboard.

Gerber files uploaded! 🙂

The PCB I designed for the 8-Bit Ethernet Project card using an board works!
I only forgot to connect 2 ground pins. 😁
Soon I will upload the fixed gerber files to github.com/AndresPlazaR2/atari

Thanks for all the suggestions!
Problem fixed after rebooting the AP... But I hate that I don't know the real reason, and I just hope it is a one-off.
(I know, I should have rebooted the APs yesterday, but because the other devices were working, I did not think that could help)

@gerg Thanks for the suggestions! I did check on kernel messages and other chains; nothing.

But this morning I rebooted the APs and that fixed the issue. Because other devices were working I did not do it earlier.

@danielscher Thanks again!
Rebooting the APs fixed the issue. I should have done it yesterday, but the fact that other devices were working obfuscated my judgement. 🙂

@danielscher Thanks!
Well, I rebooted, disconnected and disabled/enabled DHCP several times, so I imagine that would do it?
I checked the routing table while doing the steps above, and it always cleared. ☹️

@rom I haven't, but I guess I should... I hate not knowing the why. 🙂

I have the weirdest problem with my laptop, and I have no idea how to even debug it. So, I'm posting it here in case anyone has an idea:

I'm using Ubuntu 22.04; all updates installed.
Almost all the time, I'm connected to my home wireless network (router + APs).

Last week, the connection to the wireless was working fine. I went on vacation for one week; I took the laptop with me so it was not connected to my home network. Today I tried to connect to my WiFi, but it is not working.

The laptop can connect to the wireless network,
and it gets the IP, DNS and routes assigned via DHCP. But pinging to the router does not get any response.

I tried the wired connection (same router), and it works.
I tried the WiFi hotspot from my phone, and it works.
All other devices connected to the wireless network work.
There are no firewall rules in the AP or router blocking my laptop (again, it connects to the wireless network and DHCP works).
iptables is clean.

If it is a problem between the laptop and the AP, how can it get all the DHCP info?

If the problem is between the AP and the router, how do the other devices work fine?

If the problem is the wireless driver in Ubuntu, how does connection to the hotspot in the phone work?

I removed and recreated the WiFi configuration to my home network; it does not fix it. I also tested using a static IP.

I have no idea what this could be.
Any ideas?

Reposts appreciated. :-)
