Pre-KeepAChangelog releases

v1.0.0 (V1.0 snapshot) – (date unknown)

Added

  • Unix: add large file support for 2+ GB hard disk images
  • Unix: implemented ignoresegv feature on Linux/x86, Linux/ppc, Darwin/ppc
  • Unix: new ether prefs option tun to use a TUN/TAP interface. The configure script used can be overriden with etherconfig
  • Unix: sheep_net driver ported to kernel 2.6 (patches from Mac-On-Linux)
  • Unix: add user-mode network emulation stack, enabled with slirp
  • Unix: implement X11 to MacOS exchange of text through the clipboard
  • Windows: a new port derived from Lauri's work is now available

Changed

  • backport idlewait feature from SheepShaver
  • JIT: integrated dynamic translator for Linux/x86 and FreeBSD/x86
  • JIT: ported backend to support Linux/x86_64 (AMD64 and EM64T platforms)
  • JIT: improve detection of newer CPUs based on the P4 core but fallback to a safe default, if necessary
  • Unix: moved minimum autoconf support to 2.52+
  • Unix: cleaned up pthread attributes [Brian Johnson]
  • Unix: it is now possible to make the serial drivers pipe their input/output to programs by using a '|' followed by a command line as the modem or printer port setting (instead of a device name like /dev/ttyS0) [Brian Johnson]
  • Unix: the option --config FILE tells B2 to use a different config file
  • Unix: new prefs options dsp and mixer to set the OSS device names instead of the hardcoded /dev/dsp and /dev/mixer
  • Unix: SDL audio and video output are now available in option
  • Unix: improve overall responsiveness on NetBSD platforms

Fixed

  • fixed support for volumes larger than 4 GB
  • fixed the problem with Ticks getting incremented on every interrupt, not just 60 Hz (e.g. moving the mouse made the caret blink faster)
  • JIT: fixed translation through constant jumps (jitinline config option)
  • Unix: fixed floppy problems under Linux
  • Unix: serial port baud rates are now set correctly
  • Unix: fix network code to work correctly on 64-bit platforms
  • Unix: fix GUI to build with newer GTK+2
  • Unix: fix crash when exitting the GUI early
  • Unix: fix fullscreen DGA mode with the VidMode extension

V1.0 snapshot) - 2002-01-15

Added

  • added support for on-the-fly video resolution and depth switching, and gamma tables
  • added support for platform-independant mutexes, used by adb.cpp for thread-safe mouse handling

Changed

  • fsave/frestore emulation under AmigaOS and NetBSD/m68k always behaves like a 68882/68040 FPU, eliminating the need for 68060 FPU patches
  • the TIME_OFFSET constant has been replaced by a (portable) function TimeToMacTime(); file dates in ExtFS should now be correct
  • ADBInterrupt() is no longer called from the 60 Hz interrupt but has its own interrupt flag, potentially increasing the smoothness of mouse movement
  • ether.cpp: implemented relatively platform-independant "AppleTalk over UDP" mode that doesn't require any special kernel modules or network drivers but can only interconnect instances of Basilisk II; this is enabled by setting udptunnel to true
  • Unix: windowed display mode supports different resolutions and color depths, which can be switched on-the-fly
  • Unix: Ctrl-F5 grabs mouse in windowed mode (enhanced compatibility with games like flight simulators)
  • Unix: X11 events are handled as soon as they arrive, outside of the 60 Hz video refresh raster
  • Unix: audio sample rate, bit depth and channel count are adjustable in the MacOS Sound control panel
