Question

has anyone tried out .2 yet? if so, what's the performance like?

I just tried it and am somewhat disappointed. The clock patch doesn't seem to be in it and it was actually slower than some of the nightly builds, especially the new SDL build. :crazy:

Just my $.02 anyway.

just keep in mind that the nightly builds for around a week now have been from the 0.3pre trunk. this 0.2 release was a late release.

also, the sdl builds aren't official. the releases won't be as fast as the sdl ones (since they dont share the same drawing code). also the latest sdl builds have somewhat been taken off of an almost 0.3pre trunk. and the sdl code probably won't be merged with the main trunk.

The clock patch wasnt supposed to be in 0.2 it will be in 0.3 take a look in the changelog.

Thats why im using nightly builds right now.

yeah, the .3 sdl versions are much better than this...the only thing better in this version is the ability to change resolution on the fly...can any tell me why none of the pearpc build will let me go to 1024x768 resolution full screen...i can do it with 800x600, but not with 1024x768 and it's incredibly annoying? i have a 15' flat panel that's sets to 1024x768 in native win xp and i have nvidia desktop manager activated, could that be it?! SOMEONE HELP!

tekmaven try it with the pearpc connection(tap32 driver) not bridged, does that fix it??

It works WITH Internet Connection Sharing (Not Bridged), and it does NOT work when it is bridged.

Does anyone know where the "Bong" sound is? It's got to be buried inside a system file somewhere. Or is it only embedded in the BIOS? I'd like a link to it, please.

Also, some of the shortcuts don't quite work. I have a hard time force-quitting on this computer. It would be nice if the developers could lock the keyboard somehow so that Alt-Esc and others like it would not cause Windows to react. I would like to use the Alt-Tab feature in panther but cannot because Windows takes precedence.

I suppose the answer to that last one is, "buy a real mac!" :p

To use "alt + esc" press F11 then press alt, let go, then esc. Then press F11 again.

Having a problem installing MacOSX here, first time using PearPC, I think I have all setting right but it just hangs here in the installer with no further progress. I took a screenshot of the log and attached it below, anyone know what the problem is or any suggestions?
