Excellent. I shall ... wait a few months due to 'bizzarre circumstances that have impacted my finances which will be rectified by time.'

(BTW: Revision? (: )

@mntmn ....

aaaand

this will work on my beta unit? (:

@raccoonformality

Make a demo (which removes 'changing views' and needing to worry about controlling input from a user) on tic80/pico8, and then use the concepts you did there and do the same thing on some 8 bit platform - NES would actually be good because while c64 uses the same chip, there's a lot of ... "oh I need to have a stable raster" stuff which is not REALLY neccesary but "perfectionists" like me get bogged down in (:

but: prototype, then when you know how to do the effect in one thing, deal with the limitations and changes. It's a good way of breaking it down to smaller blocks to work on.

recent kernel update?

(I've had that twice in the past 2 months right after a kernel update, and had to use an earlier kernel, and a subsequent kernel update fixed it. )

Cannot say that it is the culprit, as it's not LOCKED and UNABLE TO FIND INIT, but something different, but...
I'd try another kernel. Or the hrmph boot cd. Or netboot.xyz . Something to see if it's the install or the hardware.

What do the words "too much art" mean? I do not understand.
