We now have a core for everyone to test - this is really only a test-core, as it does not meet all timing requirements. We normally aim at 165MHz output pixel clock, but this core is only good for a maximum of 155MHz output pixel clock. However, one important change is there, and that's the chipset communication fix. Please download the file from our Wiki (test core sfrom September 17th) and install the core using the "flash firmware file" menu item from the drop-down menu.
Please report back if it works as good for you as it does for us - then it's worth putting more effort into meeting timing up to 165MHz pixel clock.
No changes to the Audio engine yet - this issue was much more important to us, and we wanted to release something before the weekend, so we hopefully have your results on Monday.
Well, i just did some test on my 1d1 board. With this board i had black screens with some demo's, games and in workbench (< 64 colors) .when cold.
I cant reproduce this any more when the system is still cold .
Tomorrow i will test longer to see if it stays this way when warmed up. Its now only running 30 minutes (Jezus on Es without any blackscreen!).
