Thanks to all that answered. Cp/m mode isn't important on the Koala anyway.

The KoalaPainter cartridge for the C64 works just fine on the C128. Jeff is
right -- with the exception of the CP/M cartridge, which doesn't work at
all,
and the Magic Voice, which requires you to hold down the C= key on bootup
to properly initialise the MMU to 64 mode, all 64 cartridges work fine on
its bigger brother.
There is also a disk version, and then another disk version for the Koala
light pen.
