<BR><font face="arial, helvetica" color="#1e029a" size="4"><b>Latest release:</b> Bochs 2.1</font><BR><BR>
Version 2.0.2 is a bugfix version based on 2.0.1. This is the last
planned bugfix release in the 2.0.x series. The changes are listed
below:
It's been nearly one year since the last stable release :
<ul>
<li> fix possible segfault in wxWindows (Volker Ruppert)
<li> fix instrumentation (Stanislav Shwartsman)
<li> fix cdrom read_toc() function for *BSD (Keith Matthew Jones)
<li> fix NetBSD boot from cdrom (Christophe Bothamy)
<li> fix cmos checksum (Volker)
<li> fix "refresh bit" behaviour in pit (Volker)
<li> fix .bochsrc parsing (Volker)
<li> fix vga resize/redraw problems (Volker)
<li> fix compilation issues on Irix and Tru64 (Christophe)
<li> fix MMX/SSE bugs (Stanislav, Peter Tattam)
<li>We have improved
the accuracy of the simulation in many ways, notably in the cpu, fpu, and
vga areas.
<li>3DNow! and PNI instructions are now supported, and Bochs
includes a new disassembler that supports all IA-32 instruction sets.
<li>On the I/O devices side, Bochs now provides experimental PCI VGA and USB
cards, 16550A uarts and gameport emulation.
<li>New types of disk image can be used as harddisks : stackable, commitable or growing. Bochs can also
use VMWare 3 cow disk images.
<li>Sdl, x11, win32 and wxwindows display libraries now support
15, 16, 24 and 32 bpp color depth, and the x11 vga font is not needed
any more.
</ul>
Note that some configuration file options have been deprectated :
please update these options to the new syntax, as they're likely to be
removed in future releases.
