* screen: validate crystal values used for set_raw * driver: get rid of sound start/reset overrides in machine configuration * vrender0.cpp, nexus3d.cpp: corrected pixel clock crystal value * mw8080bw.cpp: turned several audio subsystems into devices * bus/sat_ctrl: don't start subdevices in device_start - the machine does it for you * mb14241.cpp: simplify handlers * fgoal.cpp: updated for simplified handlers * devfind, screen: repair some doxy comments that had rotted with refactoring * doxygen: disable warnings for undocumented things - it's most of our codebase * snowbros.cpp: restore an output level setting lost in MCFG removal There's an outstanding validation error from the HP98543 DIO video card not using a valid crystal value. Someone needs to find a picture of the card and confirm or deny the existence of the 39.504MHz crystal. The various start/reset overrides are bugs waiting to happen. It's not immediately obvious that the ones run earlier can end up being called multiple times if subsequent ones throw missing dependencies exceptions. They're a relic of when everything from the old C-style drivers was thrown into classes all jumbled together. |

What is MAME?
MAME is a multi-purpose emulation framework.
MAME's purpose is to preserve decades of software history. As electronic technology continues to rush forward, MAME prevents this important "vintage" software from being lost and forgotten. This is achieved by documenting the hardware and how it functions. The source code to MAME serves as this documentation. The fact that the software is usable serves primarily to validate the accuracy of the documentation (how else can you prove that you have recreated the hardware faithfully?). Over time, MAME (originally stood for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator) absorbed the sister-project MESS (Multi Emulator Super System), so MAME now documents a wide variety of (mostly vintage) computers, video game consoles and calculators, in addition to the arcade video games that were its initial focus.
