Voodoo 9.5 Release candidate is now available

Voodoo 9.5 Release Candidate

Please read the Test plan and debug procedure PDFs before proceeding with the beta test. Please understand that this is a beta test - it may break your system, and novices should not attempt to test the kernel!

Please report success on this thread. Please report failures on GoogleCode's Issues section.
Always attach log collected from debug Procedure 2, even for success reports! - this helps us mark off your setup as "working" on our internal testing chart.

The beta brings several fixes for AMD users, as well as generic fixes for cache information, timing code and opcode patcher. AMD users should see improved performance without any timer/div-zero/erratic mouse behaviour. Athlon and Phenom users experiencing audio or timer issues should no longer have these problems. Pentium 4 model 2 users no longer have to specify busratio. AMD users should be able to run Marvin, Zephyroth, Skype and other utilities without problems.

Note: While we are pushing the opcode/cpuid patcher in stages, it is not functional yet. Many apps will work without patching, but absence of a dynamic library patcher means you cannot rely on this behaviour until the final version is released.

Thanks!
