Quick query (I hope)
After recently reinstalling PiDP-10 software onto a USB 3 drive freshly flashed with Trixie - I've run into a small issue: despite the lines in the boot.pi file matching what the manual shows, i.e.,
;set wcnsls enabled joystick
set wcnsls enabled joystick cscope
set dpy ena
set wcnsls enabled joystick cscope
set dpy ena
no colorscope window opens up.
For this install, I skipped the steps laid out in Oscar's note (Dec. 20 2025) required for the install under Bookworm - perhaps this was an error after all?
Many thanks in advance - charles

Cancel red alert ... (ST:NG fans ...)
The problem turned out to be that I was editing boot.pi in the ITS folder instead of boot.pidp.

Silly me (again).
