- Enter command mode with F7 key only, but no modifier pressed.
- Pressing / releasing modifier key only doesn't leave command mode.
- Changed some headerbar button access keys using modifiers (e.g. shift + c
calls config button handler). See user doc for all supported keys.
with keypress combination. This feature is currently supported by the x and
sdl2 guis only and it can be activated with the "cmdmode" (command mode)
display library option. If enabled, pressing the F7 key enters this mode (shown
in the leftmost statusbar item) and the next keypress (except F7) is not sent
to the emmulated keyboard. If the key is supported, the associated action is
performed. Both x and sdl2 support calling the handlers of 8 headerbar buttons.
The sdl2 gui additionaly supports toggling fullscreen / windowed mode.
Supported keys:
c - Press the Copy button
e - Press the Config button
f - Toggle fullscreen mode (sdl2 only)
n - Press the Snapshot button
o - Press the Power button
p - Press the Paste button
r - Press the Reset button
s - Press the Suspend button
u - Press the User button
F7 - Send F7 keypress to emulation
TODO: add support for other guis.
The 'vnet' networking module now uses 192.168.10.3 and bxhub is setting up the
slirp compatible IP 10.0.2.4 for additional services. Added host name "vnet-ftp"
in the DNS code to translate it to the new IP address.
- Reset FTP session state in case of login failure.
- Improved FTP server status output.
- Added special error messages for 2 unimplemented commands.
- Updated vnet / socket / slirp networking module infos in source and docs.
- Enable packet logging in text format if file name is specified with the
"script" parameter.
- Don't start RX timer if vnet server returns 0.
- Added TCP header structure for future extensions.
command line debugger and debugger gui. Improved gui debugger section a
little bit. TODO: use some parts of docs-html/enh_dbg_user_man.txt and
remove this file when ready.
- Added version check and reinstall page based on NSIS example.
- Since the registry keys changed with each Bochs version, it is not possible
to detect all of them. Added special code to make this possible for previous
version 2.6.9.
- Updated tested NSIS version number in docs.
- Get rid of VER_STRING since it's the same as VERSION
- Add new defines VER_MAJOR, VER_MINOR, VER_PATCH and VER_SVN and use them for
the version number on Windows.
- TODO: Add the capability to detect installed version to the Windows installer.
- Simplified register writes from CMDFIFO using new methods in the new classes.
- Started work on reset() and continued work on save/restore support.
- Mention the Banshee model in the Bochs documentation.
Here is his original comment:
I have made several improvements in the debugger.
I have fixed several issues with proper handling of 64-bit addresses, and added support for 64 bit symbols.
I also have added several symbol lookups.
- Voodoo: Use the VGA/Cirrus timers to drive the gui screen update.
The vertical retrace emulation is still driven by a separate timer.
- VGA/Cirrus: Since we are using the virtual timer, we also have to read
time_usec() from it.
- vgacore: removed unused timer methods.
- Added warnings for currently not maintained features in the configure script,
the bochsrc sample and the user doc.
- Removed detection of deprecated bochsrc options "i440fxsupport" and
"vga_update_interval".
- Legacy bochsrc option "user_shortcut" is now deprecated.
- Removed deprecated configure option --enable-misaligned-sse from user doc.
- Updated some TODO items.
The format of the 'ethdev' string must be 'host:port' to use this feature.
Using the port number only for connecting 'bxhub' on the same machine is still
supported.
- The 'vnet' module now uses the 'script' parameter for an alternative log
file name.
- Renamed log file names in some networking modules (replaced 'ne2k' by a name
related to the module name).
- Documentation updates (networking stuff and cmosimage).
Prepared "biosdetect" option in the harddrv code.
TODO #1: Add support for a comma-separated list of BIOS options.
TODO #2: Implement support for at least "biosdetect=none" in the Bochs BIOS.
