Remove unused "dual monitor" code; clock CPU faster #11

Closed maikf closed 6 years ago

maikf commented 6 years ago

We never used the C64/VIC-II monitor at events because we didn't have the space. A nice side effect is, after removing this code, we only need to call fast() once to double the CPU frequency, which should speed up numeric computations.

We actually used it at a few RGB2Rs. IIRC, we had the second monitor running at Forum 41 on more than one occasion, and I thought also at Bürgerhaus once.

In either case, I don’t feel strongly about this.

@sur5r Thoughts?

If we decide to move forward with this, could you also remove the video mode related code from src/itemz.c? That should remove the last compiler warning we currently have.

Ah, I misunderstood sur5r. I was under the impression we haven't used it, which is why I wanted to clean up the code.
