Technically I did, but I don't think I can help you because it must have been over 12 years ago. It helps if you actually add the problem to your question.

Hi, thanks for the answers! My main question is how to configure with the ports - which softwares should I use and how. The best which I wish to get - using StarCommander to copy programs between the PC and Commodore 64 floppy disk. 2016-04-09 15:53 keltezéssel, Anders Andersson írta: > On Sat, Apr 9, 2016 at 3:42 PM, Hársfalvi Gábor <hgabi84@gmail.com> wrote: >> If anyone did use the XM1541 cable with Debian - to copy files between >> Commodore 64 floppy and PC - please help me! > Technically I did, but I don't think I can help you because it must > have been over 12 years ago.

Those are considered obsolete because they require a parallel port. Nowadays people use the ZoomFloppy, which is a USB device: http://store.go4retro.com/zoomfloppy/ However, the software used with the ZoomFloppy (opencbm) also works with the older devices. Here are instructions for building it on Linux: http://www.lyonlabs.org/commodore/building-opencbm-on-linux.html There is also a newer version: http://spiro.trikaliotis.net/opencbm-alpha http://spiro.trikaliotis.net/Download/opencbm-0.4.99.98/opencbm-0.4.99.98-source.tar.bz2 For further information, see "ZoomFloppy Users" on groups.google.com. -- Glenn Holmer (Linux registered user #16682) "After the vintage season came the aftermath -- and Cenbe."

I've got the cable and the connection of the integrated parallel port - on the mainboard of PC. So I'd like to only know about the configurations. 2016-04-09 16:26 keltezéssel, Glenn Holmer írta: > On 04/09/2016 08:42 AM, Hársfalvi Gábor wrote: >> If anyone did use the XM1541 cable with Debian - to copy files between >> Commodore 64 floppy and PC - please help me! > Those are considered obsolete because they require a parallel port. > Nowadays people use the ZoomFloppy, which is a USB device: > > http://store.go4retro.com/zoomfloppy/ > > However, the software used with the ZoomFloppy (opencbm) also works with > the older devices. > > Here are instructions for building it on Linux: > > http://www.lyonlabs.org/commodore/building-opencbm-on-linux.html > > There is also a newer version: > > http://spiro.trikaliotis.net/opencbm-alpha > > http://spiro.trikaliotis.net/Download/opencbm-0.4.99.98/opencbm-0.4.99.98-source.tar.bz2 > > For further information, see "ZoomFloppy Users" on groups.google.com. >
