@Chris,

Like Maijestro, i downloaded and installed Netsurf 3.12 (dev) from this link:

https://www.amigans.net/modules/newbb/ ... id=145704#forumpost145704

Note, i just did a reinstallation of Amiga OS 4 using A1222+ USB recovery key.

Installed latest AmiSSL 5.16 fine.

Netsurf installed fine, no longer getting the guigfx.library alert.

It loads the Netsurf welcome links page.

All the links, error fetching page.

Previous versions, 3.10, 3.9, and 3.8, now getting this popup error:

"unable to fetch document" ???

Yet Odyssey is working fine as I type this.

I know it must be downhearting to hear continued problems and it must feel like you are about to pull all your hair out of this unsual problem but do keep trying.

When Netsurf was working it was able to load sites fine, it was good at rendering pages well, for example, Amiga.org and ROOL as an example.

I even tried latest Netsurf for the Raspberry Pi on RISC OS 5.30 it seem to work fine on that OS.but I understand they are completely different operating systems.

@Chris

I do not want to put a downer on the progress so far with this thread.

It seem for other people the browser seem to be ok.

But for unknown reason for me however.

When I try the latest Netsurf 3.12 (dev) build.

I am getting the pop up guigfx.library to display images in this mode.

And then it started to install / check the fonts.

And upon the start of the Netsurf home links main page.

All the links on that page, slashdot, rool, ars, etc.

Just keep saying Error Fetching Page.

If you need logs and dumps, I am happy to provide them to you if required.

You will need to show me how to gather those log / dumps for you.

Thank you.

Hi All,

I had a look around this forum to see any mention of sound over USB speakers, the closest I could find was audio via HDMI but nothing specific to my query.

I have a USB external speaker.

According to the USB inspector, within the Utilities drawer.

Under the functionality tab, it shows it is an audio USB 2.0 device.

I then looked at the sound icon within the prefs drawer but there no option to change the sound output to USB 2.0 audio as far I can see.

Question: Is it possible to use a external USB 2.0 speaker in Amiga OS 4.1?

Thank you.

@Maijestro

I used the dopus copypath button to ensure the correct path is set correctly withing the contextual menu and yt.cfg file.

Mplayer is working now, although after a reboot, I did get a DSI alert earlier but all is good so far.

Many thanks for the additional clarification.

Hi All,

Just to follow up on this thread.

I am facing problems getting the contextual menu to play you tube clips via mplayer.

I get this requester pop up:

Please insert volume:
rx Amiga OS4: in any drive.
Process 463 "Backgound CLI"

I have edited the YT.cfg file to ensure volume and path is correct for Mplayer.

It not case sensitive I dont thnk and volume name has not changed since getting the A1222+, it is AmigaOS4, I think is the volume name?

This is a copy of the contextual menu:

c:rx AmigaOS4:Utilities/YT/YT.rexx %l %u -shh -x silent autoplay

This is a copy of the YT.cfg file:

V2.9 /* Please don't change the formatting */

/* Emotion is unsupported but might work if adjusting PathMP and ArgsMP */

Any ideas and feedback would be welcome.

Thank you.

@Maijestro, @AmigansDefender, @All.

Thanks for the replies.

Yes, I can confirm installing Netsurf 3.6 now allow me to connect to other sites.

Occaisionally, I get a requester pop up to verify the site SSL security is fine, and to either choose accept or decline.

I do have latest AmiSSL installed, I think its 5.16 I have.

So far, it appears to be working, just don't change the fonts, as it breaks the whole thing.

Had to reinstall Netsurf 3.6 again to get it back to a working state.

Finally got that SMB handler working on my A1222+.

Downloaded amd installed 2x apps.

1. SMB2-GUI_OS4
2. RapaGUI

Both from OS4 depot.

Use SMB-GUI_OS4 app to create an SMB handler file.

My 1st SMB2 handler file did not work.

Fiddle around with the SMB2 file until I got it working.

It is located within the Storage, DosDrivers drawer.

For anyone else having an issue getting thier NAS going.

See my example below:

Handler = L:smb2-handler
Stacksize = 40000
Priority = 5
GlobVec = -1
Activate = 1
Startup = "smb://Synology.lan/MyShareFolder VOLUME=DskStation USER=Boabster PASSWORD=DummyPassword"

In essence, the smb path is the name of your NAS, and MySharefolder is your actual shared folder on the NAS.

Volume is the name of an icon that AmigaOS4 will see it as once connected successfully, and user & password is the login into your NAS.

It worked eventually after many trials and errors on my part. :D

Hope it helps for newcomers.

Hi All,

Just downloaded Netsurf 3.11 from its website onto my A122+.

It successfully installed.

Clicked on the Netsurf icon.

It started to pull down fonts automatically.

Then it wants a guigfx.library file to view images in this mode.

My screen mode is 1600x900 ARGB32.

Then upon displaying the default page.

I click on any of the links provided, BBC, Rool, Ars, etc.

It comes back with "error fetching page"?

I am connected to the internet fine.

Odyssey works and iBrowsse work fine.

Latest AmiSSL is installed, its version 5.16.

Any reason why this happened and how can I fix it?

Thank you and I appreciate any feedback and assistance on this.

@joerg @Hypex & everybody in this thread.

Thanks for the additional reboot info.

It is very much appreciated.

Trying various key combos myself.

I think this is the hard reboot option.

It seem to respond to the key prompts better than the soft reboot option.

It is a WIFI usb receiver Logitec Waves Windows/MAC ergonomics keyboard.

I tried holding the keys in sequence below.

1. Left CTRL
2. Left ALT
3. Right CTRL.
Then
4. Right ALT.

The A1222+ reboots with an A-EON splash screen soon after and it then boots into Amiga OS 4.1 fine.

The soft reboot:

1. Left CTRL.
2. Left ALT.
3. Right ALT.

The monitor goes black, it remains black, I can see the monitor is refreshed but it not capturing the video signal from the GPU, it just remains black and I have to power off and on the A1222+ to get a display again.

For now I will stick to the hard reboot option and hopefully saves eveyone's new A1222+ front chassis power button from repeated use.

@FlynnTheAvatar

Ah, I see, thank you for the clarification.

I guess in time we hope for a more resilant usb stack in the future.

Hi All,

Sorry not to hijack the post onto a different topic but a similar query.

I have the A1222+ system, sometimes it can completely lock up and I use the power button to power off and on the system to get it back into a responsive state.

I understand on the amiga classic you would use the Left CTRL, and the 2x amiga keys to reboot, the classic amiga.

However using a Windows keyboard, I understand, it is CTRL, left Alt and right Alt to reboot the A1222+ system.

But it does not always work, when the system completely locks up, it does not respond to those above keys, though I am using a wireless keyboard, could it maybe to do with that being unable to respond?

If I used a wired keyboard instead, you shoud not get that problem, it should be able to reboot the A1222+ regardless?

Just a small update.

I thought I try another approach to getting my files transferred over from my NAS to my A1222+ and vice-versa.

I enabled simple FTP access by enabling FTP services on my NAS using port 20 or 21.

I downloaded pFTP from OS4 depot and it worked.

I appreciate all the feedback follks, I am still learning how to use the A1222+.

Trying to get Netsurf working, it has 2x problems, it needs a guigfx.library and it seem to think its not connected to the internet?

However I will create a new thread for that rather than causing a divergent topic to the original topic of this thread.

@dfstudios

Thank you for your reply and I do hope you recover soon.

I have connected my A1222+ through an ethernet based wifi repeater.

Then its connects to my home broadband router wirelessly to allow my A1222+ connected to the internet.

Works fine with no issues so far.

My Synology NAS connects to my broaband router directly to its 1 of 4 ethernet ports.

All devices are auto DHCP.

I can access my NAS via Oddyssey web-browser fine.

Question:Do you recokon I should try SMB on a direct Ethernet connection to 2 of 4 ports on my broadband router instead?

BTW, I like the PowerReboot tool you have created, it really handy to save at the dock instead of having to go to the workbench menu.

Many thanks.

@Hypex

Thanks for the reply.

I was able to re-name the SMB file.

My Amiga OS can boot normally now.

I can still use HTTP to access my NAS for now.

I will try another attempt to get SMB working later.

It all part of the fun learning how to break things and try to repair it yourself.

Ok, new update.

A reboot cause the same Guru mediation requester pop up again as explained in my previous post.

I tried the kill button option, no effect.

Another reboot, tried click More button and other options appeared.

I choose ignore DSI Error button.

That allowed me to get into workbench fully.

Another requester pop up message appeared.

"SMB argument is missing"?

Any other ideas? Thank you.

@nbache and everyone.

Thank you for your replies.

I manually re-typed the info again in the SMB file.

Upon rebooting the A1222+.

I get this requester pop up.

Guru Meditation 8000003
Task 0x6c2ba0c0
("SMB/smb2-handler 53.7")
generated an error of type DSI (Data Storage Interrupt)
on address 0x01a78d34.
Redzone was not damaged.
Stackpoint is inside bounds.

It looks like its completely borked my workbench.

It a complete white screen.

There is a workbench screen title bar at the top.

But right clicking does nothing.

Holding left click and dragging down can bring the workbench down with a black background.

Nothing else is happening, it appears to be stuck with just a complete empty white screen and no further.

Will try a reboot and report back.

Any other ideas, thank you.

@dfstudios

Thanks for sharing your SMB info, it very much appreciated.

I am new to Amiga OS 4.1 and A1222+, I am just getting my bearings.

I tried to replicate the SMB setup you provided in the previous post as close as possible but I have a problem.

I too have a Synology NAS 212J.

-- Selected novice install of SMB2 handler.
-- It installed fine without errors.
-- I duplicated the PAR file from the DEVS/DOSDrives.
-- I rename PAR to SMB.
-- I open the SMB file via notepad.
-- I deleted previous PAR info and pasted below:

Handler = L:smb2-handler
StackSize = 65536
Priority = 5
GlobVec = -1

-- Save SMB file.
-- I right click, click information on the SMB file.
-- Then click icon tab, then under tooltypes:

ACTIVATE=1

-- Save the SMB file.
-- Then went to the S Drawer.
-- Right click to edit Network Startup file with this below:

; $VER: Network-Startup 53.2 (01.06.2011)

AddNetInterface QUIET DEVS:NetInterfaces/~(#?.info)

; Add below this line applications that need a running network

;BEGIN Mount NAS Drive
C:Mount SYS:Storage/DOSDrivers/SMB2 STARTUP smb://Synology/home VOLUME = "BoabsterBkup" USER = "Boabster" PASSWORD = "DummyPassword"
;END Mount NAS Drive

-- Save the file.
-- Rebooted A1222+.
-- Upon Amiga OS 4.1 startup.
-- I get this error msg requester on-screen with just an OK button below:

"Handler is not a valid keyword.
File SMB, Line 1, Column 1."

Any ideas where I gone wrong here?
Many thanks for feedback and its appreciated.

@eliyahu

Thank you for your reply and feedback.

Will do, I do have a Netgear Ethernet to Wifi bridge lying about.

I will try that soon.

In regards to the loud ticking sound.

I did chatted to AAA team earlier on the day.

Its was initially fan 2 on the GPU was causing the noise.

But then I realize I had the unit upside down.

The loud ticking noise stopped.

Whoops

Hi All,

My A1222+ has just arrived.

All appears to be well.

There is a ticking noise coming from the unit.

Its fairly loud, has anyone had this before upon receiving the A1222+?

I suspect possibly something obstructing the fan?

Will check in a moment.

Additional question, in regards to Wifi, is there any compatible wifi USB/PCIe for Amiga OS 4.1 are you aware of?

Thank you.

Hello everybody,

I just wanted to say hello and I am expecting a complete A1222 plus system this Monday

I found this forum and I take it this is the place for guides, info and support on Amiga OS 4.1?

I saw a lot of the info on this forum helpful in understanding Amiga OS 4.1 and A1222 plus system.

I will see I can get pictures uploaded once the package arrives on Monday.

I appreciate this link: http://eliyahu.org/tabor/ is really useful and I can’t wait to get stuck into the new A1222 plus system and trying Amiga OS 4.1.
