Skeleton drivers:
-----------------
(none)
System Driver Changes:
----------------------
-dmv: Added keyboard mcu rom content [rfka01]
-intellivision: update comments and fix rom locations on intv1 hardware. Note the intv1 exec.bin still needs to be split to the two separate roms that the real hardware used. [Lord Nightmare]
-intellivision: enabled the c000-cfff area for cart rom access; while no commercial carts used this afaik, at least one homebrew cart does and won't work without it. Corrected the manufacturer/name of the Sears Super Video Arcade. [Lord Nightmare]
-thomson: Performance improvements and bug-fixes: more efficient bank switching, fixed video update (Mach 3, Sparce Racer, HCL), fixed game PIA port B, fixed side-effect in debugger, fixed MO6 cassette. [Fabrice Bellet]
-vidbrain: Improved video timings and correct CPU clock. [Kurt Woloch, Sean Riddle, Curt Coder]
-ep804/digel804: a lot of documentation updates, fixed location of roms to match schematics; documented the ram expansion pinout. [Lord Nightmare, balrog]
-sc3000: Added support for the SC-3000 Survivors *.bit cassette file format. [Curt Coder, SC-3000 Survivor]
-vip: Added byte I/O and expansion slot interfaces. [Curt Coder]
-sc3000: Moved the fake BIOS to cartridge software list. SC-3000 does not have an internal BIOS, instead a BASIC or other cartridge needs to be plugged in manually. E.g. "mess sc3000 basic3" [Curt Coder]
-vip: Connected the byte I/O and expansion ports. Refactored the VP550, VP590, and VP595 to implement the expansion slot interface. [Curt Coder]
-vip: Added beeper on/off switch, and VP585 board. [Curt Coder]
-ti99: gromport redesigned, now offering three slot options "single" (default) / "multi" / "gkracker" determining the set of cartridge slots (cart or cart1/2/3/4). Cartridge insertion may be set to trigger RESET or not. TI consoles now have a dedicated RESET line, connected to the RESET input of the CPU and VDP. [Michael Zapf]
-DEC VK100/GIGI documentation update; document two missing proms, correct (I hope) IC locations (until we can get schematics) using the DEC system of counting from the top right corner downward and shifting one column to the left at the end, and documented the (sometimes barely/illegible) markings on the proms. [Lord Nightmare, Andy Valencia, Guru]
-Big Board 2: Fixed keyboard and screen scrolling. [Robbbert]
-P8000: Fixed 8-bit and 16-bit versions enough that they are usable [Robbbert]
