Since it's driven by a HD647180X0CP6 (Subsino - SS9600)
plus SS9601 and SS9602 (for video and I/O respectively),
it's possible that needs to be moved to a new driver in
a near future. Also added technical notes. [Roberto Fresca]

Subject: [HD63701]Fix slp opcode
To: submit@mamedev.org
Fixed SLP opcode basing on HD63701 and HD6303 datasheet.
This is need for psion driver in MESS, but I did some testing in MAME
and I have not seen regressions.
Probably nobody noticed this before because this opcode is almost
unused in arcade machine.
If you want have a confirmation of this you can see the diagram at
page 14 of the HD63701 datasheet or at page 24 of the HD6303
datasheet, where it is clear that the "sleep cancel signal" is not
conditional at the IRQ mask.

Subject: [patch] Fix print_game_rom to search all parents for merges
To: submit@mamedev.org
Cc: atariace@hotmail.com
- Hide quoted text -
Hi mamedev,
One minor problem I noticed awhile ago is a discrepancy between
romload.c and info.c. Romload.c will load a rom for a clone from any
of its parents, but info.c only considers roms in the immediate
parents to be merge roms. This patch fixes that, making info.c search
all parents for merges. In practice this can only go to two parents
(a parent and a bios) due to constraints in validity.c, but that's
enough for it to affect a few games in suprnova.c (e.g. galpani4k).

To: submit@mamedev.org

Hi mamedev,
I noticed that atarigx2, beathead, and offtwall were only partially
converted to use driver_data. This patch migrates additional static
variables.

Hi mamedev,
This patch fixes bug 03318, a crash associated with -burnin on vector
games. -burnin doesn't work for vector games (they lack bitmaps), but
at least it won't crash anymore. I also fixed the code to not assume
the bitmaps were identically sized. update_burnin made that
assumption, but finalize_burnin did not in some places.

Subject: [patch] Fix 03777 a51site4: Hang after loading via internal
UI (multisession)

Hi mamedev,
This patch converts mediagx to use driver_data, which as a side effect
fixes bug 03777.

* Added missing PALs as reference to most of remaining sets
* Dumped and added TK24B1.1A to dynwar [Corrado Tomaselli]
* Fixed LW-13.10D rom loading in forgottn to match real pcb
* Identified, verified and documented a ton of pcbs, adding/fixing missing/wrong infos as ROMs labels and positions, B-Board, C-Board and CPSB IDs, PALs [Stefan Lindberg, Dlfrsilver, MKL]
* Reordered all sets per release date in cps1.c and video\cps1.c
* Updated games table in video\cps1.c and added some notes on PALs table
* Minor cleanups
Correct rom names as per labels which lists the sum16 values of the roms.
Marked the tms320e15.bin as BAD_DUMP with a note about it being hand repaired.
Eventually the MCU from this PCB will be sent for decapping to compare against what we have.
New Clone Added
