"r11296
Fix compile #3"
"DOSBox-0.74-ps3-r1
Issues:
There are still some performance bottlenecks. In testing cycle values above 10000 provided the most issues. Tweaking some values in dosbox-0.74.conf may help to improve performance.
There are still some usability issues with the on screen keyboard. If a lot of typing is necessary you may consider hooking up a physical one.
Using the fluidsynth midi synth requires a soundfont is sf2 format. Place the file on the PS3 and edit dosbox-0.74.conf to set the value 'midiconfig' to the full path to the file. It's also necessary to change the 'mididevice' option to the value 'synth'.
There is currently no PS3 optimized loader. The DOS commands needed to launch the game need to be type every time you start the app. You can reduce the typing by adding common lines to the dosbox config file's autoexec section.
Using soft mouse and keyboard:
When loading the application PS3 game pad one begins in Mouse Mode. In mouse mode the left stick moves the cursor, Cross sends a left click, and Square sends a right click. Pressing L3 will turn on keyboard mode.
In keyboard mode, the left stick moves the cursor, pressing cross presses the highlighted key. When a key is highlighted and any button is pressed (other than Cross, Square, L3 and R3) that button will be mapped to the key, in mouse mode pressing the button will be the same as pressing the key on the keyboard. Press L3 to return to mouse mode. This is useful, for example, to map the DPad to the keyboards arrow keys.
In mouse mode, press R3 to enter joystick mode. In this mode the game pad acts as an SDL joystick."

DS2x86 v0.07 Alpha
"DS2x86 v0.07 Alpha Release Notes
================================
This version has the following improvements:
- Blinking cursor in text modes (finally!).
- HIMEM.SYS emulation added, allows Chaos Engine to run.
- Fixed a serious total crash problem in 32-bit string opcodes.
- Fixed a stack alignment problem that could cause "Exception 4" BSOD errors.
- Improved BSOD reporting, now includes a stack trace.
- Improved horizontal blank reporting, this might solve hanging problems
in some games.
- Improved Mode-X graphics blitting code to handle wrap-around properly.
- Changed the screen refresh interrupt interval from 60Hz to 59Hz. This
might help with the intermittent "stuck key" problem in some games.

- Implemented a number of previously missing opcodes."

"Since the last release I've added unicode support to the windows port of snes9x. Since this involved quite a few changes I've decided to post an interim test version.
I'd really appreciate feedback from users with roms/movies/paths that contain unicode characters.
The archive also contains an x64 build that you can try if you have an x64 windows version. Also present is HLSL shader support for direct3d (provided by mudlord). I've packaged mudlord's shaders into a separate zip, and fes made a few shaders on the bsnes board that you can try.
The config file is now considered utf-8, so if you previously had characters in your specific locale they might not load correctly. "
