Hi All

You can find new test builds of E-UAE based on the current CVS state at
http://rcdrummond.net/uae/test/20050607/

This includes:

Better interpretive CPU speed (up to 30% better).

Improved SDL screenmode detection (it'll let you use any host screenmode for a 
P96 screen - great for those with wide-screen displays - and it should always 
get the pixel format right now).

Fix for raw key-mapping of the Less-than/greater-than key on international 
keyboards under SDL (thanks to Staf Verhaegen).

Ability to not use host time-stamp counter for synchronization on x86 hosts 
(useful if your machine does frequency scaling). A similar option exists for 
ppc hosts to disable use of the PPC timebase register. It's probably less 
useful there. See earlier posts on this list about this stuff.

Fix for path handling in virtual filesystem for AmigaOS hosts.

Some other bits and pieces. See the ChangeLog.


The Linux/x86 build against SDL is currently available. MacOS X and AmigaOS4 
builds will be going up shortly. Holler if you want a binary for some other 
platform to test.

Cheers,
Rich
