6 - Fix init/term bug (only seen if windowing system is successively
|
2002
|
7 brought up/torn down). This a long-standing bug, but doesn't impact
|
1932
|
8 the typical user. More of an irritant than anything else.
|
|
9 - Backport along with keydrv, joydrv, snddrv to Level 1.

18 - Fix SS.WrTrk to handle high density drives (is this working now?)
|
|
19 - Fix SS.WrtTrk bug which causes crashes on some CoCos (I believe the
|
|
20 slowdown was employed as a temporary workaround?)

|
21 12/16/05:
|
|
22 Using a Disto Super Controller I hooked up to a 6309 CoCo 3, I
|
|
23 booted to V03.02.04 and formatted /d1 which is a 5.25" 360K drive.
|
|
24 I experienced the same computer lock-ups that others have seen.
|
|
25 12/17/05:
|
|
26 With the same setup that I made the above discovery, I made
|
|
27 a new system disk with the latest code, the only thing being
|
|
28 different was rb1773.asm which I retrieved from the repository
|
|
29 at revision 1.10, the same revision that was part of V03.02.04. I
|
|
30 did a physical format on a 360K disk SIX times without any lockups.
|
|
31 I then reverted to the format that was part of V03.02.04 and again,
|
|
32 SIX physical formats yielded no lockups.
|
|
33
|
|
34 Finally, I reinstated the latest rb1773 and format, then modified
|
|
35 rb1773.asm to not slow down and speed up the CoCo 3 around the
|
|
36 SS.WrTrk code. Six physical formats did not show a single lock-up.
|
|
37
|
|
38 Conclusion: Further research is needed to warrant what caused this
|
|
39 bug in V03.02.04. It does not appear to be related to the driver
|
|
40 directly, nor to the format utility. It may be related to the
|
|
41 kernel since that component has changed since V03.02.04. At this
|
|
42 point and time, further testing of the latest repository is needed
|
|
43 to confirm on other systems that this bug no longer exists.
