# User Rev Content
1 cebix 1.78 V1.0 (snapshot) - 15.Jan.2002
2 cebix 1.71 - added support for on-the-fly video resolution and depth switching,
3     and gamma tables
4 cebix 1.70 - fsave/frestore emulation under AmigaOS and NetBSD/m68k always behaves
5 cebix 1.68 like a 68882/68040 FPU, eliminating the need for 68060 FPU patches
6 cebix 1.73 - added support for platform-independant mutexes, used by adb.cpp for
7     thread-safe mouse handling
8 cebix 1.75 - the TIME_OFFSET constant has been replaced by a (portable) function
9     TimeToMacTime(); file dates in ExtFS should now be correct
10 cebix 1.76 - ADBInterrupt() is no longer called from the 60Hz interrupt but has
11     its own interrupt flag, potentially increasing the smoothness of
12     mouse movement
13 cebix 1.77 - ether.cpp: implemented relatively platform-independant "AppleTalk
14     over UDP" mode that doesn't require any special kernel modules or
15     network drivers but can only interconnect instances of Basilisk II;
16     this is enabled by setting "udptunnel" to true
17 cebix 1.72 - Unix: windowed display mode supports different resolutions and color
18 cebix 1.76 depths, which can be switched on-the-fly
19 cebix 1.73 - Unix: Ctrl-F5 grabs mouse in windowed mode (enhanced compatibility
20     with games like flight simulators)
21 cebix 1.76 - Unix: X11 events are handled as soon as they arrive, outside of the
22     60Hz video refresh raster
23 cebix 1.74 - Unix: audio sample rate, bit depth and channel count are adjustable
24     in the MacOS "Sound" control panel
25 cebix 1.68

28    
29     V0.9 (snapshot) - 29.May 2001
30 cebix 1.62 - added help for command line arguments, PrefsInit() now removes

34 cebix 1.50 - Unix: some performance improvements to VOSF screen update code
35     [Brian J. Johnson]
36 gbeauche 1.64 - Unix: renewed SIGSEGV support functions. Side effect: configure

39 cebix 1.59 - Unix: -Ofast option is supplied to MIPSPro compiler [Brian J. Johnson]
40     - Unix: workaround for IRIX pthreads bug in Delay_usec()
41     [Brian J. Johnson]
42 cebix 1.60 - Unix: FreeBSD configure script cleanups [Michael Alyn Miller]

46 cebix 1.65 - AmigaOS: SCSI buffer type can be selected
47 cebix 1.50

49 cebix 1.66 - adapted for cxmon V3.0 which is now the required minimum
50 gbeauche 1.41 - UAE cpu: fixed a bug in the memory handlers preventing from
51     correctly updating 15 and 16 bpp displays on big endian systems
52     - Unix: added (experimental) real addressing mode [Gwenole Beauchesne]
53     (activated through the "--enable-addressing=real" configure option)
54     - Unix: added direct addressing mode [Gwenole Beauchesne]
55     (default addressing mode, if possible)
56     - Unix: added screen updates on SEGV signals [Gwenole Beauchesne]
57     (activated through the "--enable-vosf" configure option)
58 cebix 1.44 - Unix: added IRIX audio driver [Brian J. Johnson]
59     - Unix: improved timing of periodic threads

74 cebix 1.45 - AmigaOS/Unix: it's possible to specify preferences items on the
75     command line
76 cebix 1.48 - BeOS: implemented the "powerrom_cpu" CPU engine for BeOS/PPC that
77     uses the 680x0 emulator contained in an Apple PowerMac ROM to run
78     Basilisk II (ca. 4x speed improvement); when running on a BeBox,
79     a PCI PowerMac ROM image is needed to use this (the path name of the
80     ROM file can be set with the preferences item "powerrom", default
81     is "PowerROM")
82 cebix 1.35 - include/macos_util.h: defines FOURCC() macro to make MacOS-like
83     four-character-codes, replaced most instances of multi-character
84     constants in the sources by this macro to avoid compiler warnings

93     - Unix: compiles without pthreads, but without serial/ethernet/audio
94     support
95     - Unix: "--without-mon" configure option now works
96     - Unix/video_x.cpp: DGA and SHM are only tried on local X11 displays
97     - Unix/video_x.cpp: re-integrated old window update method; frameskip=0
98     ("Dynamic") selects new method, other values select old method
99     - Unix/prefs_editor_unix.cpp: new "Input" pane, containing keycode
100     and mouse wheel options
101 cebix 1.31 - AmigaOS: added support for CyberGraphX [Jürgen Lachmann]
102 cebix 1.30 - audio.cpp: audio_data is cleared on reset [Lauri Pesonen]
103 cebix 1.29 - prefs.cpp: empty string prefs items could be written to prefs file
104     but not read back correctly
105     - clip_*.cpp: added prefs item "noclipconversion" for turning off
106     charset conversion of text clips (only CR->LF gets translated),

137     copying bug and also most "unimplemented trap" errors on MacOS
138     bootup; yeah :-)
139     - a warning is issued if the ROM seems to require an FPU but FPU
140     emulation is turned off
141 cebix 1.12 - medium removal is allowed in CDROMExit()
142 cebix 1.18 - added (incomplete) emulation of 68040 instructions (CINV, CPUSH,

410     V0.4 (alpha) - 15.Apr.1999
411     - Added some literature references to the source files

419

428     floating point math
429     - video_*.cpp: on most systems, the frame buffer is allocated with
430     two additional lines as some ROM versions seem to write behind
431     the frame buffer proper

436     result in a rate of 57600 [Lauri Pesonen]
437    
438     V0.4 (alpha) - 10.Apr.1999
439     - upgraded to UAE 0.8.8 CPU, CPU is now built with "gencpu", UAE sources

451     - rom_patches.cpp: removed unnecessary a0/a1 save/restore from drivers
452     - slot_rom.cpp: removed unnecessary a0/a1 save/restore from drivers
453     - serial_defs.h: added error codes
454     - AmigaOS: the Kickstart ROM is no longer used to redirect NIL pointer
455     accesses as this crashes some machines (especially 68040-based);
456     a scratch memory block is used instead
457     - AmigaOS/serial_amiga.cpp: implemented
458     - AmigaOS/ether_amiga.cpp: implemented
459     - AmigaOS/sys_amiga.cpp: SysAddSerialPrefs() now returns real defaults

462     - AmigaOS/main_amiga.cpp: interrupts are disabled during execution
463     of an EMUL_OP routine
464     - AmigaOS/asm_support.asm: the CTRL-C handler checks for pending
465     AmigaDOS operations
466     - AmigaOS/asm_support.asm: the interrupt signal exception is rethrown
467     when the interrupt level in EmulatedSR gets lowered while interrupts
468     are pending
469     - BeOS: switched from project files to Be supplied makefile system
470     - BeOS/ether_beos.cpp: implemented
471     - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: modem status of parallel device is returned

478     (useful when it crashed)
479    
480     V0.3 (alpha) - 14.Mar.1999
481     - Unix/video_x.cpp: added 15, 16 and 32 bit window modes [Bill Huey]

489     - prefs.cpp: renamed TYPE_BOOL to TYPE_BOOLEAN beacuse of name clash on
490     BeOS R4.1
491     - uae_memory.cpp: added support for frame buffer pixel type conversion
492     in virtual addressing mode, the Mac frame buffer layout now has to be
493     specified in MacFrameLayout (video.h)
494     - Unix/video_x.cpp: the "screen" prefs item is now read to select
495     window mode (with a specified window size) or DGA mode
496     - Unix/video_x.cpp: DGA mode supports 15, 16 and 32 bit modes (packed
497     24 bit pixels don't work)
498     - Unix/Makefile.linux: added -D_REENTRANT to compiler flags
499
