Kyvos was updated

@white
Thank you so much for your message. I will make it more clear that virtio-gpu driver is available to beta testers only. Thank you again for bringing this up.

@white
I did an update to the manual updating the information for virtio-gpu to make the driver availability more clear for everyone.

I also added the following paragraph in the app description

Thank you again for bringing this topic to me.

I can't test it myself, but have you already added “zoom-to-fit” Kyvos?

I usually start the Pegasos2/AmigaOneXe machine with this line.

-display cocoa,zoom-to-fit=on,zoom-interpolation=on,full-screen=on

“zoom-interpolation=on” smooths the screen without GL output.

“zoom-to-fit” enables scaling of the
display when full-screen mode is enabled.

This is particularly helpful on MacOS with the Cocoa display manager.

@walkero

Sorry for the tip.
And thanks again for the tool.
Of course, I just wanted to let you know because your software isn't commercial but donation-based.

After reading it, I also thought I'd find the "driver inside" Kyvos right from the first version.

@Maijestro
I haven't played with these at all. Thank you for sharing that information. I noted that in my to-do list. I will play with it and see how I could implement it. Does it make sense only when the full-screen is enabled or even in a window?

@white
No worries at all. Sometimes you have something clear in your mind, but it is not communicated correctly. I appreciate mentioning this.

"zoom-interpolation=on"

It makes sense for both full screen and window mode. I just tested it again.

Full screen:

-display cocoa,zoom-to-fit=on,zoom-interpolation=on,full-screen=on

Window:

-display cocoa,zoom-to-fit=on,zoom-interpolation=on,full-screen=off

This also allows you to resize the window as desired.


It's a kind of anti-aliasing for the entire screen output. If you play around with it, you'll notice it when the AmigaOS 4.1 boot logos appear; they look much smoother and less pixelated.

Did you also add “vmnet-bridged”?

Quote:

“VMnet bridges, or bridged networking, in VMware allows a virtual machine (VM) to connect directly to the physical network, obtaining an IP address from the network's DHCP server and appearing as a distinct device on the network, much like any other physical machine. This mode uses a software bridge to link the VM's network adapter to the host's physical network adapter, enabling direct network communication between the VM and other devices on the physical network.”

At least under MacOS, it is much more accurate and the RTL8139 works very well with it. The disadvantage is that the machine must be run as root.

As I said before, Kyvos doesn't work for me, unfortunately. I hope I'll have more time one day to test it better.
