of the hardcoded '/dev/dsp' and '/dev/mixer'

File Contents

# User Rev Content
1 cebix 1.79 V1.0 (snapshot) - <date>
2     - fixed the problem with Ticks getting incremented on every interrupt, not
3     just 60Hz (e.g. moving the mouse made the caret blink faster)
4 gbeauche 1.86 - Unix: moved minimum autoconf support to 2.52+
5     - Unix: add large file support for 2+ GB hard disk images
6 cebix 1.80 - Unix: cleaned up pthread attributes [Brian Johnson]
7 cebix 1.81 - Unix: fixed floppy problems under Linux
8 cebix 1.87 - Unix: implemented "ignoresegv" feature on Linux/x86, Linux/ppc, Darwin/ppc
9 cebix 1.85 - Unix: serial port baud rates are now set correctly
10     - Unix: it is now possible to make the serial drivers pipe their input/output
11     to programs by using a '|' followed by a command line as the modem or
12     printer port setting (instead of a device name like '/dev/ttyS0')
13     [Brian Johnson]
14     - Unix: the option "--config FILE" tells B2 to use a different config file
15 cebix 1.87 - Unix: new prefs options "dsp" and "mixer" to set the OSS device names
16     instead of the hardcoded '/dev/dsp' and '/dev/mixer'
17 cebix 1.79
18 cebix 1.78 V1.0 (snapshot) - 15.Jan.2002
19 cebix 1.79 - added support for on-the-fly video resolution and depth switching, and
20     gamma tables
21     - fsave/frestore emulation under AmigaOS and NetBSD/m68k always behaves like
22     a 68882/68040 FPU, eliminating the need for 68060 FPU patches
23     - added support for platform-independant mutexes, used by adb.cpp for
24     thread-safe mouse handling
25     - the TIME_OFFSET constant has been replaced by a (portable) function
26     TimeToMacTime(); file dates in ExtFS should now be correct
27     - ADBInterrupt() is no longer called from the 60Hz interrupt but has its own
28     interrupt flag, potentially increasing the smoothness of mouse movement
29     - ether.cpp: implemented relatively platform-independant "AppleTalk over UDP"
30     mode that doesn't require any special kernel modules or network drivers but
31     can only interconnect instances of Basilisk II; this is enabled by setting
32     "udptunnel" to true
33     - Unix: windowed display mode supports different resolutions and color depths,
34     which can be switched on-the-fly
35     - Unix: Ctrl-F5 grabs mouse in windowed mode (enhanced compatibility with
36     games like flight simulators)
37     - Unix: X11 events are handled as soon as they arrive, outside of the 60Hz
38     video refresh raster
39     - Unix: audio sample rate, bit depth and channel count are adjustable in the
40     MacOS "Sound" control panel
41 cebix 1.68
42 cebix 1.67 V0.9 (release 0.9-1) - 31.May 2001

44 cebix 1.67
45     V0.9 (snapshot) - 29.May 2001
46 cebix 1.79 - added help for command line arguments, PrefsInit() now removes all processed
47     options

49     [Kolja Waschk]
50     - Unix: some performance improvements to VOSF screen update code
51     [Brian J. Johnson]
52     - Unix: renewed SIGSEGV support functions. Side effect: configure script
53     cleanups and probable Direct Addressing/VOSF support for other platforms
54     (NetBSD, AIX, OSF/1, Irix) [Gwenole Beauchesne]
55     - Unix: -Ofast option is supplied to MIPSPro compiler [Brian J. Johnson]
56     - Unix: workaround for IRIX pthreads bug in Delay_usec() [Brian J. Johnson]
57     - Unix: FreeBSD configure script cleanups [Michael Alyn Miller]
58     - Unix: ether_linux.cpp moved and renamed to ether_unix.cpp, now also works
59     with the tap driver under FreeBSD [Michael Alyn Miller]
60     - BeOS: fixed some bugs in the extfs file types handling
61     - AmigaOS: SCSI buffer type can be selected
62 cebix 1.50

66     updating 15 and 16 bpp displays on big endian systems
67     - Unix: added (experimental) real addressing mode [Gwenole Beauchesne]

69     - Unix: added direct addressing mode [Gwenole Beauchesne] (default addressing
70     mode, if possible)
71     - Unix: added screen updates on SEGV signals [Gwenole Beauchesne] (activated
72     through the "--enable-vosf" configure option)
73     - Unix: added IRIX audio driver [Brian J. Johnson]
74     - Unix: improved timing of periodic threads
75     - Unix: command line options now use '--'-prefix, e.g. "--rominfo"

89     - AmigaOS/Unix: it's possible to specify preferences items on the command line
90     - BeOS: implemented the "powerrom_cpu" CPU engine for BeOS/PPC that uses the
91     680x0 emulator contained in an Apple PowerMac ROM to run Basilisk II (ca.
92     4x speed improvement); when running on a BeBox, a PCI PowerMac ROM image is
93     needed to use this (the path name of the ROM file can be set with the
94     preferences item "powerrom", default is "PowerROM")
95     - include/macos_util.h: defines FOURCC() macro to make MacOS-like
96     four-character-codes, replaced most instances of multi-character constants
97     in the sources by this macro to avoid compiler warnings

109     ("Dynamic") selects new method, other values select old method

111     wheel options

115     read back correctly
116     - clip_*.cpp: added prefs item "noclipconversion" for turning off charset

130     Mac2Mac_memcpy
131     - extfs.cpp: fixed bug in fs_rename() and fs_cat_move() (auxiliary IOParam

144     now always used; this fixes the MacOS 8 Finder copying bug and also most
145     "unimplemented trap" errors on MacOS bootup; yeah :-)
146     - a warning is issued if the ROM seems to require an FPU but FPU emulation is
147     turned off
148     - medium removal is allowed in CDROMExit()
149     - added (incomplete) emulation of 68040 instructions (CINV, CPUSH,
150     MOVE16 (Ax)+,(Ay)+, and FPU stack frames), enough to boot MacOS

163     device capabilities (actual sample rate is also determined)

491     (with a specified window size) or DGA mode
492     - Unix/video_x.cpp: DGA mode supports 15, 16 and 32 bit modes (packed 24 bit
493     pixels don't work)
