Sorry... Your submission is totally wrong. You're adding an inexistent DIP switches bank with communication settings just because the driver is asking for a missing input. These boards have only 1 DSW bank and is connected to a PIA. This is fully explained in the source. The real problem is that we're importing the whole structure from sys903 machine driver into this modified version, and the ACIA should not be part of the modified hardware. This problem surfaced with the recent ACIA conversion to device. The real fix is to reflect the hardware components accuratelly in the machine driver instead of add new DSW definitons to the driver. Robbie. |

In other words, the correct fix would be to use a MDRV_DEVICE_REMOVE("acia6850_0", ACIA6850) in MACHINE_DRIVER_START( s903mod ). right? |

Maybe I should read drivers before trying to fix things at 3AM. |
