Change CPUID to generic interface which could be chosen from .bochsrc.
Bochs CPU emulation will enable/disable features (like instruction sets) according to CPUID that is selected.
TODO: Add database of CPUID from real hardware CPUs
'vga_update_interval' option. The screen update frequency is still based on
the emulated clock unless the realtime sync is enabled with the 'clock' option.
TODO: rewrite the virt_timer code to support realtime screen updates
independent from 'clock' setting.
- fixed changing parameter 'update_freq' at runtime (timer object and blink counter)
parameters (path + status) have been set. TODO: implement this feature for the floppy, too.
- call update_drive_status_buttons() from update_runtime_options() to reduce the number of calls.
Now call update_runtime_options() from the gui floppy / cdrom handlers after closing dialog.
The patch was posted in mailing list at Thu 6/16/2011.
Desription for CHANGES:
- Memory
- Added new configure option which enables RAM file backing for large guest
memory with a smaller amount host memory, without causing a panic when
host memory is exhausted (patch by Gary Cameron). To enable configure with
--enable-large-ramfile option.
duplicate log prefixes on Windows if both IDE and USB cdroms are used in plugin mode. Windows also
requires the cdrom base class and the init_cdrom() method to link and work correctly.
the plex86 interface was not updated since 2001 and even doesn't compile together with current Bochs sources.
plex86 source code still can be found in plex86 sourceforge project @ http://plex86.sourceforge.net/
