|
>One thing you may notice is that the screen saver turns on (screen goes
|
||
|
|
blank) very quickly after you have stopped typing. The reason is that Bochs
|
||
|
|
simulates everything as fast as it can. If the CPU is very busy (running
|
||
|
|
instructions nonstop), simulated time goes by slowly. If the CPU is idle (just
|
||
|
|
waiting for you to type, for example), simulated time speeds up dramatically.
|
||
|
|
In any case, if the screen saver blanks out the screen, just press a key (try
|
||
|
|
shift or control) to restore the screen.</P

|
>There are two strategies to fix this problem. One is to increase the

|
||
|
|
>cpu option</A
|
||
|
|
>
|
||
|
|
in your configuration file. This will cause the simulation time
|
||
|
|
to pass more slowly. The other strategy is to enable the experimental
|
||
|
|
realtime PIT, which tries to keep Bochs in sync with real time. See the <TT
