dummy interface are now disabled if the extension isn't set to "vbe"
- writing charmap data in graphics mode now supported (SF patch #1059199)
- fixed set_ask_format() for the mouse type option
- ne2k and sb16 config lines now support the parameter "enabled=0|1"
- config parser code for ne2k and pnic now working the same way
- ne2k enable option now present in config menu / dialog
- fixed pcidev targets in iodev/Makefile.in
- updated all Makefile dependencies using a default setup (.conf.linux).
TODO: dependencies should be generated at compile time since they depend on
the config settings
#1079240 by Ben Lunt. There are still some problems:
- PS/2 mouse is always present (some code to emulate a disconnected mouse needed)
- PS/2 wheel mouse doesn't work properly
- serial wheel mouse detected as a standard mouse and doesn't work at all
- textconfig now supports lists in a list
- network configuration divided in two menus / groupboxes
- ips setting now belongs to the clock menu / dialog
- wx.cc: center status bar items (wxMSW port only)
- wxmain.cc: obsolete stuff removed
code. Up to 3 boot drives are supported now. TODO: new boot dialog for wx.
- config.cc: missing ask formats for enum parameters added
- wxdialog.cc: tab window now uses the label instead of the ask format if defined
- menu and option names for the network configuration fixed
- NIC init code passes script name to ethernet module init code
- VDE module added to the list of ethernet modules
- constant BX_PACKET_BUFSIZE moved to eth.h
- replaced obsolete method ConvertToBitmap() by wxBitmap(wxImage) constructor
- PCI config dialog must be disabled at runtime
- wxWindows has been renamed to wxWidgets, source files updated (TODO: update docs)
Description from the author:
This API allows framebuffer device plugins to draw directly on to the
GUI's tile buffer and hence eliminates the need to memcpy(3C) tiles to
an intermediate buffer. Functions like update_hardware_cursor function
are rendered unnecessary as framebuffer device plugins can now draw the
full range of host colours. svga_cirrus will fallback to calling
graphics_tile_update without a hardware cursor if the GUI doesn't support
the new API. This patch includes implementations of graphics_tile_info,
graphics_tile_get, and graphics_tile_update_in_place (the new API) for SDL
and X11.
- new graphics update API implemented in wx and rfb
- common update functions for guis without support for the new API added (should
be removed after implementing the new API in all display libraries)
data written to the port and where to get the data read from it. Available
modes are 'null' (no input/output), 'file' (output to a file specified as
the 'dev' parameter), 'term' (serial terminal) and 'raw' (use the real serial
port - under construction for win32).
- descriptions for serial and parallel options in bochsrc sample updated
* up to 5 slots can be specified with the 'i440fxsupport' config option
* the pci slot number are hardwired to pci device numbers
* the 'devfunc' value is returned the calling device (useful for multi-function
devices)
* the core of the i440FX chipset is hardwired to pci device 1 + 2; usb is still
optional and appears at device 1, function 2
- ne2k: enable pci features if connected to a pci slot
- ne2k: asic data port supports 32-bit access if ne2k-pci is active
- pci2isa: improved error messages for ELCR1 and ELCR2
bochs.h already not include iodev.h which reduces compilation dependences for almost all cpu and fpu files, now cpu files will not be recompiled if iodev includes was changed
- textconfig runtime menu: some options moved to submenu "Misc runtime options"
- bx_param_c: variable group_name and methods set_group() / get_group() added
- bx_list_c: new flag SHOW_GROUP_NAME added (used for SB16 options in runtime menu)
