Thu Apr 29 14:00:00 2010 uliAATTsuse.de
- fix (not quite lethal) buffer overflow in iextdsk.c

Wed Sep 9 14:00:00 2009 uliAATTsuse.de
- update -> 2009-03-17:
- arnold started up with something that looked like a cpc6128 but was
cassette based. now fixed. arnold starts with a real cpc6128
configuration.
- started to implement a new \"load file into ram\" option. Not finished yet
but I was going to use this to run some tests with arnold.
- it was not possible to insert an expansion rom (now fixed). clicking on
load button would not do anything.
- lots of dissassembly errors fixed. Some instructions were wrong, some
were not formatted correctly. Some were inconsistent.
- If Arnold failed to auto-start a disc it would not tell you.
- If Arnold failed to auto-start a disc it would leave autotype on and
would print garbage. Cpc would hang.
- If Arnold failed to auto-start a disc it would leave autotype on, reset
did not stop it. Cpc would be hung after reset.
- Failed to autostart discs where directory had graphics and the only file
to run was hidden.
- Can now load 256k and 512k snapshots.
- Much more tolerant to bad snapshots (bad length).
- Can now autostart disc/tape on cpc+.
- compressed memory blocks in snapshot v3 are now supported (snapshots
written by winape should now load)
- disc image filename blocks in snapshot v3 specification are now
supported (snapshots written by winape should now load)
- scroll lock led no longer reflects drive led. it was not useful because
it only reflected the state of the internal drive anyway.
- Ukonx tracker now loads.
- Last Ninja 2 Remix (protected disc image) can now be inserted without Arnold crashing
- Natural Bug Killer demo now runs
- Inserting some disc images would cause Arnold to crash.
- Fixed bug with CPC+ snapshot loading/saving. Some snapshots identify
themselves for CPC old generation, but if a CPC+ special block is found
it is assumed CPC+ is used.
- Fixed a bug in the fdc emulation meaning Natural Bug Killers would hang
after intro part.
Linux port:
- low-latency initialization for pulseaudio
- 64bit fix for pulseaudio
- pulseaudio support via new pulseaudio \"plugin\"
- more 64bit fixes by Guillaume Bedot
- sound plugins are specified by name
- sound plugin auto detection
- doublesize and fullscreen command line options
- 64bit and compile fixes by Guillaume Bedot
- merged new emulation core from Kevin Thacker (02-January-2009)
- Sound output on Linux is now provided via four different \"plugins\":
OSS, ALSA, ALSAMMAP or SDL. OSS is the default, others can be choosen via
command line (see arnold -h for help).
- Sound now actually works as expected when using ALSA or OSS. The SDL plugin
is left in for completeness but still broken as before.
- Spanish CPC6128 with different ROMs
- Limited mouse support (Joymouse, Symbimouse) and mouse grabbing
