1. The passthrough from VGA to 8514/A and/or 8514/A to VGA no longer relies on hackish places where to switch from/to, instead, relying on port 0x3c3 of VGA doing so (though the Mach8/32 still needs some places where to manually switch from/to, mainly the MCA one when configuring the EEPROM).
2. Implemented the MCA behalf of the Mach32 and its corresponding reset function.
3. Properly implemented (more or less) true color, including 24-bit BGR rendering
4. Other fixes such as color patterns and mono patterns being more correct than before in various operating systems and in 24-bit true color.
5. Implemented the onboard Mach32 video of the IBM PS/ValuePoint P60 machine.
6. Made the onboard internal video detect when it's 8514/A compatible or not (CGA/EGA/MDA/VGA/etc.). If the former is selected, then the video monitor flag is used instead (for QT).
7. The TGUI9400 and 9440, if on VLB, now detect the right amount of memory if on 2MB.
8. Initial implementation of the ATI 68875 ramdac used by the Mach32 and made the ATI 68860 8514/A aware when selected with the Mach32AX PCI.
9. Separated the 8514/A ramdac ports from the VGA ramdac ports, allowing seamless transition from/to 8514/A/VGA.
10. Fixed a hdisp problem in the ET4000/W32 cards, where it was doubling the horizontal display in 15bpp+ graphics mode.
11. Removed the 0x3da/0x3ba port hack that was on the Mach8/32 code, relying on the (S)VGA core instead.
12. Reworked and simplified the TGUI9440 pitch register based on logging due to no documentation at all.
Added the Mach8 and Mach32 ISA/VLB/PCI cards (initial implementation and MCA coming soon for the Mach32) and their corresponding EEPROM's.
Added INMOS XGA ISA card and updated the SVGA core to reflect its mapping as well as the Mach8/32 mapping when in 8514 monitor mode.
Mark the XGA button as already checked and locked when a standalone XGA BIOS card is present like the INMOS one. (QT only)
Same concept as above, but applies to the Mach8 and 32 for the 8514 option as well. (QT only)
Added the AT&T 2xc498 Precision RAMDAC.
Added 1MB configurations to the Cirrus Logic GD5434 as well as re-organized the memory size options of the other Cirrus cards.
Separated the et4000w32/i blitter from the standard et4000w32p blitter and properly implemented the X/Y Count route.
Added several Diamond Cirrus cards.
Added Number Nine S3 cards (868 and 968-based).
Fixed the WD90c30 1MB modes.
Re-organized the video card names.
Added a timer to improve perfomance of the 3D engine.
Made the Trio3D/2X available for all.
Reserved bit 2 of CR33 is now always set to make sure Win95's Trio3d/2X drivers work along with a workaround for the memory size.
Added preliminary DMA bus master capabilities.
The 82C425 is a CGA-compatible display controller chip. On top of being
able to drive a regular CRT display like an ordinary CGA card, it can
be configured to drive a monochrome 640x200 LCD panel instead.
The chip along with a LCD panel are notably used in the Victor V86P
laptop comupter.
When driving a monochrome LCD, the controller is able to employ some clever
tricks to compensate for he lack of color: by alternately turning dots on
and off with various duty cycles it can achieve displaying 4 or 8 shades
of gray. It can also enhance contrast between the text glyphs and their
background when it's less than the configured minimum (with "SMARTMAP"
algorithm).
The emulation is fairly complete. The 320x200 graphical mode uses 4 gray
shades along with stretching the pixels horziontally much like the real
hardware would. SMARTMAP is implemented for text mode and also matches
the real hardware pretty closely.
The missing bits are:
* Configurable blink rates
* Mapping the character map into host address space
The code is based on the T1000 display controller emulation and
still bears strong resemblance to it.
