Setting Time on RISC OS 4.39 
  Hi, After messing around with a few games earlier today, one of the games quit by telling me "You should go to bed now!" or similar. I thought that a bit strange and decided to check the time (*time at the F12 prompt). It showed as around 2.30am and the year was 2111! After a few minutes of trying to remember how I set the time on a RISC... more »

BBC Micro books 
  I'm looking for a lead on someone who might want a fairly large number of BBC Micro books (15 or so). I saved these from a thrift store shelf and still have them sitting around. If someone wants them, I can ship them. Thanks.

PDF difficulties 
  In article <na.2f11c750bd.a806e0tenn...@o rpheusmail.co.uk>, ...Load into PDFView and save as text. The text file is then readable. If you want it better formatted, save as Drawfile. Hope this helps, John Resent as cross-posting seemed to prevent first attempt.

Removing RISC OS formatting data from USB stick 
  I have a USB stick which I formatted using !SCSIForm on an Iyonix. I need a way to remove the formatting data. If I partition to FAT32 (using gparted under Ubuntu) the disc still contains the RISC OS information. When plugged into the Iyonix it will show as FAT32 when using Fat32FS and RISC OS when using SCSIFS. I'd like just the FAT32 to be used. Any ideas?... more »

Blank emails 
  I've recently been getting a few blank emails with a 'blank' HTML attachment, when opening it with Oregano 1, named HTML. Usually confirmation of an online order. From more than one firm. Annoying - as they often contain a tracking number. That's trying to open them with Oregano 1. Fresco or Netsurf display some... more »

Can a Router "run slow"? 
  Hi all My internet connection has over recent weeks seemed increasingly slow. Insofar as I thought about this I supposed it was because I was using old Risc OS kit and comparing with PC stuff used on another (wireless) network. However I had to connect my pc laptop to the network this evening and... more »
