My profiler script works on breakpoints so it’s definitely not always executing.

In a number of my projects I have it running every time I test, and I don’t recall any debugger connection problems…

It's not persistent unfortunately. Right now, I tried to reproduce and now it accepts connections again - as was the case for a long time earlier - like all of 2020. It's just that once openmsx starts to deny connections from the debugger, I can always remedy it by not running scripts.

So, when this happens again, where should I look?

(a long time ago, I remember that the debugger was very slow to connect, and then there were lots of files somewhere that just needed to be deleted. let me know if there are tricks like that )

I have tweaked the OSD menu lately. Mostly regarding long items, scrollbars and selection of machines and extensions.
And now I am looking for feedback. Can you help by trying out the latest development build?

I compared the Main-ROM of the Sony HB-10P with that of the HB-20P which I probably got in the zip of the full set ROM for Open MSX.

hb-10p_basic-bios1.rom (sha=5e7c8eab238712d1e18b0219c0f4d4dae180420d)
hb-20p_basic-bios1.rom (sha=365c93d7652c9f727221689bcc348652832a7b7a)

Both are indicated "PAL" but in that of the HB-10P, it is indicated that it is an English version and that of the HB-20P is a Spanish version.

The wiki pics show that both models have the same keyboard and there is also an HB-10P with an english keyboard.

It is better to differentiate them. I think this problem is not limited to this model. It lacks a bit of rigor.

Does anyone have the spanish version ROMs? Is there a dump of English version of the HB-20P?
In addition, does anyone have the ROMs of Japanese HB-55 and HB-75?

What exactly do you suggest?
We have no information about the Spanish version of the Sony HB-10P, but if we would have, we would indicate that, just like for the HB-20P.

According to the openMSX config of the Japanese HB-75 it has the standard BIOS ROM with sha1sum 302afb5d8be26c758309ca3df611ae69cced2821 (found in many JP MSX1 machines) and a JP version of the firmware. It's probably in the famous zip file with all the system ROMs.
