Unterschiede im TOS 4.01 / 4.04



In diesem Artikel werden sie die kleinen Unterschiede einer jeden TOS-Version finden die es von Atari für den Atari Falcon F030 gab. TOS 4.04 ist die letzte aktuelle TOS-Release für den Falcon.



Fpatch

This little patch fixes two problems in the Falcon BIOS (TOS 4.00-4.04)

(1) Sound is not initialized properly.
(2) Bconmap() doesn't work.

To use it, copy FPATCH2.PRG to your AUTO folder.

This patch supersedes FPATCH1.PRG. The former worked by hooking into the BIOS trap and intercepting Bconxxx calls. This patch fixes the Bconmap problem directly (by setting the Bconmap table size to its correct value) and hence requires no resident code. It also has the benefit of allowing the Falcon LAN port to be accessed via the BIOS.
