## Build Instruction
- Print the outer shell.
- PLA, 0.2 mm, 180 ℃ (See also [./openscad/README.md ](./openscad/README.md ))
- `macintosh-mini-part-a.stl` ([stl](./openscad/macintosh-mini-part-a.stl))
- `macintosh-mini-part-b.stl` ([stl](./openscad/macintosh-mini-part-b.stl))

- Setup your Orange Pi Zero Plus 2 (H3)
- Install Armbian Bionic. https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-zero-plus-2-h3/
- Then SSH into the device.
```bash
$ sudo apt install -y git xtightvncserver
# Install Node.js
$ git clone https://github.com/tj/n /tmp/n & & cd /tmp/n & & sudo make install
$ sudo n v10
# Install https://github.com/xpertsavenue/WiringOP-Zero
$ git clone https://github.com/xpertsavenue/WiringOP-Zero
## Please refer to https://github.com/xpertsavenue/WiringOP-Zero
# Setup vncserver
$ mkdir .vnc
$ vncpasswd .vnc/passwd
# Install the dependencies & config files
$ git clone https://github.com/likeablob/macmini ~/macmini
$ cd ~/macmini
$ sudo ./install.sh
# copy ypur assests
$ cp /path/to/vmac.rom ~/macmini/minivmac/vmac.rom # Mini vMac ROM file
$ cp /path/to/vmac.dsk ~/macmini/minivmac/system.dsk # Mini vMac disk file
$ cp /path/to/.basilisk_ii_prefs ~/.basilisk_ii_prefs # Basilisk II config file
$ cp /path/to/macboot.wav ~/macmini/macboot.wav # Boot sound (optional)
```
- [Tips]: Here is my working [.basilisk_ii_prefs ](basilisk_ii_prefs.md ).
- Wire the display & USB boards to the OPi
< img align = "center" width = "auto" height = "400px" src = "./images/mm_s_8.jpg" >
| OPi | Peripherals |
| -------------- | -------------------- |
| PA15/SPI1_MOSI | LCD MOSI |
| PA16/SPI1_MISO | LCD MISO |
| PA14/SPI1_CLK | LCD CLK |
| PA13/SPI1_CS | LCD CS |
| PS12 | LCD RESET |
| PA11 | LCD DC |
| PA06 | Push Switch |
| USB-DP2 | USB (Front) Data+ |
| USB-DM2 | USB (Front) Data- |
| 5V | USB (Front/Rear) 5V |
| GND | USB (Front/Rear) GND |
## Basic Concepts
1. At system boot, [`fbtft_device` ](./config/fbtft.conf ) kernel module is loaded and it initializes the LCD as `/dev/fb0` .
2. `nodm` starts an X session and `~/.xinitrc` get executed.
3. `~/.xinitrc` launchs `matchbox-window-manager` and `~/macmini/switcher/*js` .
4. `~/macmini/switcher/index.js` reads the scripts [`~/macmini/switcher/sh.d/*sh` ](./switcher/sh.d/ ) and spawns them one by one when there is a HTTP GET request at `localhost:5501/` .
5. `~/macmini/switcher/gpio-reader.js` watchs the push SW at GPIO7(PA06) and send a request to `localhost:5501/` .
### How does the low-res LCD(320x240) handle 512x384 resolution?
Internally `xthighvncserver` and `ssvncviewer` are used to scale the display.
- e.g. [`1_large_minimac.sh` ]((./switcher/sh.d/1_large_minimac.sh )) launches:
- `xthighvncserver` to create a virtual display (512x384) at `DISPLAY=:1` (`:5901`)
- `minivmac` in `DISPLAY:1`
- `ssvncviewer -scale 0.625` in `DISPLAY:0` (By the `-scale` option, low-res LED get upscaled)
