# 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 1.88 - Unix: integrated JIT compiler for Linux/x86 and FreeBSD/x86
5 gbeauche 1.86 - Unix: moved minimum autoconf support to 2.52+
6     - Unix: add large file support for 2+ GB hard disk images
7 cebix 1.80 - Unix: cleaned up pthread attributes [Brian Johnson]
8 cebix 1.81 - Unix: fixed floppy problems under Linux
9 cebix 1.87 - Unix: implemented "ignoresegv" feature on Linux/x86, Linux/ppc, Darwin/ppc
10 cebix 1.85 - Unix: serial port baud rates are now set correctly
11     - Unix: it is now possible to make the serial drivers pipe their input/output
12     to programs by using a '|' followed by a command line as the modem or
13     printer port setting (instead of a device name like '/dev/ttyS0')
14     [Brian Johnson]
15     - Unix: the option "--config FILE" tells B2 to use a different config file
16 cebix 1.87 - Unix: new prefs options "dsp" and "mixer" to set the OSS device names
17     instead of the hardcoded '/dev/dsp' and '/dev/mixer'
18 gbeauche 1.89 - Unix: new ether prefs option 'tun' to use a TUN/TAP interface. The
19     configure script used can be overriden with "etherconfig"
20 gbeauche 1.90 - Unix: SDL audio and video output are now available in option
21     - Unix: port JIT compiler to Linux/x86_64 (AMD64 and EM64T platforms)
22 gbeauche 1.91 - Unix: sheep_net driver ported to kernel 2.6 (patches from Mac-On-Linux)
23     - Unix: fix network code to work correctly on 64-bit platforms
24     - Unix: implement X11 to MacOS exchange of text through the clipboard
25     - Windows: a new port derived from Lauri's work is now available
26 cebix 1.79
27 cebix 1.78 V1.0 (snapshot) - 15.Jan.2002
28 cebix 1.79 - added support for on-the-fly video resolution and depth switching, and
29     gamma tables
30     - fsave/frestore emulation under AmigaOS and NetBSD/m68k always behaves like
31     a 68882/68040 FPU, eliminating the need for 68060 FPU patches
32     - added support for platform-independant mutexes, used by adb.cpp for
33     thread-safe mouse handling
34     - the TIME_OFFSET constant has been replaced by a (portable) function
35     TimeToMacTime(); file dates in ExtFS should now be correct
36     - ADBInterrupt() is no longer called from the 60Hz interrupt but has its own
37     interrupt flag, potentially increasing the smoothness of mouse movement
38     - ether.cpp: implemented relatively platform-independant "AppleTalk over UDP"
39     mode that doesn't require any special kernel modules or network drivers but
40     can only interconnect instances of Basilisk II; this is enabled by setting
41     "udptunnel" to true
42     - Unix: windowed display mode supports different resolutions and color depths,
43     which can be switched on-the-fly
44     - Unix: Ctrl-F5 grabs mouse in windowed mode (enhanced compatibility with
45     games like flight simulators)
46     - Unix: X11 events are handled as soon as they arrive, outside of the 60Hz
47     video refresh raster
48     - Unix: audio sample rate, bit depth and channel count are adjustable in the
49     MacOS "Sound" control panel

58     [Kolja Waschk]
59     - Unix: some performance improvements to VOSF screen update code
60     [Brian J. Johnson]

75     updating 15 and 16 bpp displays on big endian systems

98     - AmigaOS/Unix: it's possible to specify preferences items on the command line
99     - BeOS: implemented the "powerrom_cpu" CPU engine for BeOS/PPC that uses the
100     680x0 emulator contained in an Apple PowerMac ROM to run Basilisk II (ca.
101     4x speed improvement); when running on a BeBox, a PCI PowerMac ROM image is
102     needed to use this (the path name of the ROM file can be set with the
103     preferences item "powerrom", default is "PowerROM")
104     - include/macos_util.h: defines FOURCC() macro to make MacOS-like
105     four-character-codes, replaced most instances of multi-character constants
106     in the sources by this macro to avoid compiler warnings

120     wheel options

124     read back correctly

156     turned off
157     - medium removal is allowed in CDROMExit()
158     - added (incomplete) emulation of 68040 instructions (CINV, CPUSH,

172     device capabilities (actual sample rate is also determined)
