Just a couple of changes.
1. Updated to latest svn
2. Add the DjWillis touchscreen SDL hack

With the hack ive noticed it does work. I had 2 situations that i came across. At a low fixed cycles the cursor was always where i expected. At max the cursor would go up the screen if i was off the screen to the left. But I could "reset" it by pressing at the top left corner.

Get is here for now: http://dl.openhandhelds.org/cgi-bin/pandora.cgi?0,0,0,0,72,54

Properly working touchscreen control would go a long way into making dosbox more usable for me (can actually play dune 2 maybe!). Thanks for the update.

In fact that was one thing i tested last night, the intro screen is a little goofy, but past that it worked fine.

Marvelous work, nice to see a DOSbox update.

[Dead1nside]

Great work, yet again, Pickle. Thanks.

Many thanks Pickle.

Never tried Dosbox before, had a go last night and I'm loving it on the Pandora.

Struggled for a while until I realised that all you had to do was select the default setup in the front end and all the mapping of drives was done for you.

PS Am really enjoying dungeon hack too.

Personally I'd like to see a video of a cunning stunt. Also, do you happen to have tried "The Red Barron"?

thx for your update pickle!

However, the major show stopper when using nub input with DoxBox seems to persist: mouse button clicks done with the right nub move the mouse cursor randomly around before executing the mouse button click.

Any chance to remedy that?

All the best,

All I have running in DoxBox is Master of Orion and Master of Magic. Both show that problem. No other program on my Pandora has that bug, so I assume it's got sth. to do with DosBox. Same thing on my girlfriends Pandora.

I can also describe the effect in detail:
it only has an effect on the up-down movement:

When you travel down with your cursor (left nub down), stop, move right nub to the left (LMB), the cursor jumps up a few pixel.
When you travel up, stop, do LMB the cursor jumps down.

It's always the same, so the cursor jumps in the opposite direction of the last actual movement. After the cursor has jumped, you can do as many LMB on this spot without any problem (jumping). It seems the faster you moved the cursor with the left nub, the further the cursor jumps up/ down when doing the first LMB. Maximum jumping distance is about 1-2 cm, minimum jumping distance just a few pixels.
