[linuxdc-dev] First revision of the Unofficial Dreamcast Technical Manual is out

[<ka...@us...>]

Hi all.

The Dreamcast Linux team (linuxdc.sourceforge.net or
www.dreamcastlinux.org or linuxdc.oss [opennic]) has released its first
incantation of a technical manual covering the information on the Sega
Dreamcast gaming console.

The goal of this manual is to collect all available technical information
on the DC console in one place. We chose to write the manual in Docbook
since we can publish the result in PDF, PS, HTML, RTF, info pages or
whatever is wanted fairly easily.


The information contained in this release has been gleaned from various
sources, among those are: Marcus Comstedt's home pages, some of
bITmASTER's releases, the powervr2 register specs released by Lars Olsson.
A complete list of credits is in the appendix. If you see anybody missing
from the credit list, tell us, and we'll fix the original author some
candy as an apology.

The manual itself is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation
License.


If, for any reason, the authors we haven't had any replies from
(Hello bITmASTER) do not wish their material republished in this manual,
please contact me <ka...@us...> asap, and I'll remove the
offending sections.


A browseable version of this release can be found at
http://linuxdc.sourceforge.net/files/book/book1.html

The sources for the manual can be checked out from the Dreamcastlinux CVS:
