Release id #212349 : VICE 3.6

Since there are some questions in the comments section of VICE 3.6, I figured it would be better use the forum for any questions.

So to start things off:

Quoting The Human Code Machine
But how can I save the monitor window position on GTK3 Vice Windows x64? After exiting it always opens the same small window.


Currently you can't, window resizing/repositioning support is different across OSes/WMs, so making this work properly for all configurations may never work. That said, I'm working on a "fix" to make it at least work on some systems.

It'd be much nicer if it'd actually tell details about the many bugs that are fixed over the 3.5, instead of pointing out two mostly irrelevant details as new bugs :)

He is mostly praising it. And while doing so points out two bugs. :)

There seems to be an issue with the REU support in this version.

I have made a small test program which runs fine with 3.5 but fails with 3.6 and the latest snapshot. It mounts a 256KB image with the last page consisting of the bytes 0-255 in order, then tries to copy that page to memory and checks a few addresses for expected values.

Yes, I am autorunning the prg, which used to work fine. It also fails with the r41604 snapshot.

prints "ram expansion unit content validated." in green here - how exactly do you run it? i basically just copied the cmdline from your makefile
x64sc -reu -reuimage reu-image.bin -reusize 256 reu-check.prg
edit: try adding -default to the beginning of that cmdline and see if that changes anything

Interesting!

From the output of x64sc:

command line was: /home/lars/dev/misc/svn-mirror-r41604/vice/src/x64sc -reu -reuimage reu-image.bin -reusize 256 reu-check.prg

reconstructed commandline options (might be incomplete):
-default -monlog -sdlinitialw "1530" -sdlinitialh "1160" -reu -reusize "256" -reuimage "reu-image.bin" -remotemonitor

I can swear that in one of the many versions of Vice, RunStop was on the positional "Caps Lock key".
Getting my head around using Esc key feels a bit awkward.
Part from that, still enjoy this one :D!
