Unix: Amix graphics card driver for MNT VA2000

Amix, Commodore's Amiga Unix, can now also utilize the MNT VA2000 graphics card. The project consists of two parts: the driver itself and an X11R5 server with the corresponding RTG support.

In addition to Amiga Unix version 2.1, firmware version 1.9.0 beta 2 is required for the graphics card operating in Zorro II mode.

Next step for the #MNT Reform Keyboard 4.0 trackstick mod: The Sprintek SK8707-01-005 works well with a RP2040 flashed with QMK. Thanks to @gordon I found the magic patch which made it work very smoothly. Link to that patch and my full diff to QMK here: https://github.com/josch/qmk_firmware/commit/56d908063fc2641c6257c13ad23b8f072cb37579
It’s been a year since I’ve been using my #MNT #PocketReform as a sole computing device on weekends and vacations (borrowed smbdys phone to make this photo), and while it’s been rough sometimes, the overall experience is very satisfying. Ofc I had to celebrate by ordering a new motherboard revision :)
MNT shares its April 2026 Update. https://mntre.com/media/reform_md/2026-04-30-april-update.html #MNT #LinuxComputers #LinuxLaptops
Great news and a good hardware company. I just bought a monitor from them to send some money their way until I need my next Linux computer.

oh wow an #OSHW track point! Someone should work on integrating this into a #MNT Reform keyboard asap!

90s HP 200LX (80186 1MB RAM) + open source hardware #MNT Pocket Reform. I’m glad someone is still thinking of this form factor: very small but still usable for software development. #retrocomputing #retro #opensource #hardware
Just finished talking to a class of 30 students at TU Berlin about Open Source Hardware and my work at #MNT. As a part of a class led by @jcolomb and two others. It was a trippy experience trying to describe this whole world of alternative tech to a group of people who had just tried `git` for the first time mere minutes earlier. #OSHW
