Hi all,
We are planning to do a new release very soon. However, the more testing is done to the current SVN version, the better, so that we find & fix as many bugs as possible before we release.
So, please help us testing. Get the lastest SVN, compile it and run it in all circumstances you can think of. If you need a Windows binary, please try out a beta of the installer which is temporarily here:
http://openmsx.sourceforge.net/temp/openmsx-0.6.2-pre1-win32-bin.exe
Known problems:
- Universal Binary cannot be built yet from SVN
- No new completely new Catapult yet... 
Focus points:
- Diskmanipulator (import/create/etc.)
- video recording
- Catapult (note: no new features, just adjusted to stay compatible... but should work!)
- SDLGL-PP renderer
- GFX9000
- trainers
- SCC sound quality
- dot-matrix printer emulation (plug some printer thing in the printerport 
- documentation
Don't hesitate to ask questions!
And do let us know all good things and problems you have with it, please! Thanks in advance. Any help is welcome. |

I just downloaded it and it worked fine (it installed in Wine).
It should be 5891124 bytes.

hls - I didn't get your mail (yet). What machine are you talking about exactly? Also, I need to have the slot layout of the machine, and I need information which chips are used (amount of RAM, VDP, what ports does it have, in case of diskdrive, which FDC, double or single sided drive, etc.)
