video refresh in 16 bpp modes. The Banshee also uses this feature in 16 bpp
desktop mode in addition to 3D modes. The code for the pen calculation comes
from the original Voodoo patch for DOSBox. Since it was unused there, I had
disabled it when porting to Bochs.
- Fixed serious issues in 16 bpp mode of XP guest (clipped y value).
- Added BX_ERROR messages for unsupported features.
- Added / updated comments.
- TODO #1: Background pattern issues in XP guest still remain in all modes.
- TODO #2: Some small issues in Win9x guests caused by monochrome host blts.
- Removed SDL specific code to reduce dependencies. SDL works okay with
pthreads or win32 implementations.
- Prepared semaphore support for the use in the Voodoo code (thanks to Luigi B.).
- Polygon fill: Check if pixels are within clip window.
- Polygon fill: Added error message for unimplemented pattern ROPs.
- Some cleanups in the code for pattern ROPs with transparency.
- Added options "net" for the IP address space and "ftp" for the FTP server.
- Added some sanity checks for the IP address configuration.
- Added sample config file.
- Added new config file options "host", "dns" and "dhcpstart" (similar to slirp).
- modified bx_vnet_pktmover_c class to be compatible with other modules.
- On TFTP RRQ check file presence directly (fixes iPXE boot).
- Fixed start address for the gui screen update in 3D overlay mode.
- Small optimization for drawing transparent monochrome bitmaps.
- In the restore case start the fifo thread in after_restore_state().
- Report unimplemented colorkey feature (test case missing).
- TODO: issues in some Windows guests still not fixed.
- Save/restore additions for 2D desktop mode.
- Fixed pitch in 3D overlay mode for hardware cursor.
- TODO list:
- Minor issues in explorer navigation bar of Win98SE.
- Ugly background pattern under software cursor and XP start menu.
- Segfault after switching to 3D mode at XP Direct3D test (Voodoo3 only).
- Serious display issues in 16 bpp modes of XP guest (Voodoo3 only).
- Moved server ID and lease time options to the top of the DHCP reply.
- Increase TFTP buffer size as expected by iPXE.
- TODO: The vnet module still has boot file name hardcoded.
- 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.
Moved status bar update to the gui thread and added a new event type called
BX_ASYNC_EVT_STATUSBAR to invoke it. Changed size and style of the status bar
items.
