I never used TABBED when starting a shell. These are my window parameters: WINDOW=CON:1055/31/673/484/AmigaShell/SHELL/CLOSE/ALT1055/31/673/969
I still have strange freezes when selecting, pasting or quickly entering text into the Shell. Also, starting a new Shell window while another one moves (like a notification that flies in), will also freeze the system.
I had a similar experience on my X5000 that was pre-installed by Alinea Computer.
It had a number of strange issues (StormC5 forgetting its registration, strange crashes while playing music, ...).
In the end it seemed to be a combination of the installation and just buggy programs.
A fresh installation solved the StormC5 issue, and most of other crashes where indeed bugs by other software: - CONSOLE (newshell) is still unstable (but not as bad as on Update 2) - AmigaGuide datatype is trashing memory when loading AmigaGuide files with links to external files (e.g. RKMs on the Developer CD) - IMP3 really need to be run on its own screen - IMP3's MOD replay is very fragile with the currently available ptreplay and ptplay libraries - Some of the Enhancer replacements are not 100% compatible (CLI commands, datatypes)
Regarding the network issues, there is indeed an issue with the default network configuration. Run CheckRoadshowConfig and remove the duplicates from your config. But make a backup.
If I understand you correctly, you want to separate/sandbox legacy 68k code more than it is done with Petunia now. So, instead that 68k code is directly accessing the system, it should access an emulation layer in the future.
I guess this will break more legacy 68k programs. I cannot imagine that Vinced or tools like GoSnap will work anymore in such an environment.
If I understand you correctly, you mean ditching old 68k stuff from the APIs/libraries. IMHO this is even worse, because this makes maintaining software for all Amiga flavors (3.x, MorphOS, AmigaOS 4.x) much more compliate than it needs to. And it is pretty bad with the interfaces for libraries calls already.
Sorry, I do not see the benefit of having an "Amiga NG" with an "Amiga OS" that does not support 68k programs.
I personally use a lot of 68k programs that have no PPC port: - CubicIDE - ArtEffect - StormC 4 - IMP3 - AmIRC - VinCED (because CON is seriously buggy)
And no, running them in UAE is not an option for me.
Thank you for your continued effort to make Xena work.

Could it be that xena.resource.kmod is the issue? The X5000 pre-release CD came with "xena.resource.kmod 53.2 (08.10.2015)". I currently have "xena.resource.kmod 53.3 (16.12.2016)". I think it was installed by an update. I will try the older xena.resource.kmod and see if that changes anything.

Setting up x5000
The support for X5000 is UNTESTED!
----------------------------------
If you'd like to continue, a few tests will be performed.
1. The first test is according to the X5000 Curys TRM.
It seemed to work for one test. But then not.
2. The second test is based on loose assumptions on how
AEons Tabor motherboard works.
The only reason you would want to run these tests is to
inform the developer on your progress.
You can abort this process now by pressing Ctrl-C and enter.
You will be asked to enter something to continue before each test.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. NO RESPONSIBILITY IS TAKEN WHEN RUNNING THIS SOFTWARE!
About to setup mem space. Enter something to continue...

Res in SIG1 is dead. This is good.
Res in SIG2 is dead. It is not 0xBEEF. That's wrong.
Res in REG_HWREV (2) is dead.
Writing D00F to scratch1
Writing BABE to scratch2
Read babe from scratch1 (should be D00F)
Read babe from scratch2 (should be BABE)
About to do test 2.
Enter something to continue...

--- Performing Test 2 ---
Res in SIG1 is babe. It should be 0xDEAD.
Res in SIG2 is bebe. It is not 0xBEEF. That's wrong. You should not continue.
Res in REG_HWREV (2) is beef.
Writing F0BB to scratch1
Writing D00D to scratch2
Read f0d0 from scratch1 (should be F0BB)
Read d00d from scratch2 (should be D0DE)
If you got good values back from test 1, things seem to work.
If you got good values back from test 2, things in the code have to change!
If you didn't get good values, stuff will NOT work.
Press Ctrl-C to abort...

Okay, I figured it out. I have also HunoPPC's libegl wrapper installed.
It has its only set of configuration files in ENV/ENVARC:EGL_wrap directory. But SDL3 scans all sub directories it also picks up ENV:EGL_wrapper/SDL_RENDER_DRIVER and overwrites ENV:SDL_RENDER_DRIVER.
My suggestion is to call ScanVars with the flag GVF_SCAN_LEVEL (do not recurse into sub dirs).
