Tested with Checkit 3.0 and QEMM 9.0. - The NPU error is confirmed and it seems to be a floating point rounding error in QEMU. This should be a 0.12 regression as it works in 0.11.1 and 0.10.6. - The RTC Alarm failure is confirmed too. Is it unimplemented in QEMU? - The Base Memory > 640K error seems to be SeaBIOS related. QEMU Bochs BIOS(tested with both -old-bios hack in 0.12 series and old 0.11.1) will just freeze after QEMU counted RAM.(Tested with ScriptPC and Bochs). > Thnx. > > Ciao, > Gerhard > > -- > http://www.wiesinger.com/ > > Details: > 1.) > NPU Trigonometric Functions.................................FAILED *** > Step 1, Expected 0.42926, received 0.42926 > > Double 'Npu_oldans1' = 0.429259 (3FDB78F91894EFA5h). > Double 'Npu_oldans2' = 0.628319 (3FE41B2F769CF0E0h). > Double 'Npu_result ' = 0.429259 (3FDB78F91894EFA6h). > > 2.) > Compare Current Time............................................Passed > DOS: 16:24:39.89 Real-Time Clock: 16:24:39.00 (.89 apart) > > Compare Current Date............................................Passed > DOS: 04/11/2010 Real-Time Clock: 04/11/2010. > > Real-Time Clock Alarm...........................................FAILED *** > > Compare Elapsed Time............................................Passed > DOS: 11.97 Seconds Real-Time Clock: 12.00 Seconds (.03 apart) > > 3.)
