AmigaOS 4.1FE Update 3 - Bugs and Experience Report

@Boabster

Thanks for det update

Update...

I thought I was having problems with some python examples, because I was getting "file not executable", then I remembered that I have to type python followed by the name of the script or add the "script" protection bit to make it a script rather than just a text file.


I had to update NetSurf and Snoopy ...

NetSurf 3.12 Dev CI #6994 working fine.

Snoopy 54.127 working fine.


Otherwise, my only casualities are AmiDVD, Imagine and Real3D.

Imagine would launch ok for Update 2 but window was too big for the screen.
Imagine does not launch after Update 3.

Real3D has crashed during launch ever since I installed AmigaOS 4.1 FE, so I think it is a lost cause.

So, I think Imagine and Real3D are toast.

AmiDVD 1.53 (06/03/2022) from A-EON Enhancer Software 2.2 was working just fine on Update 2 and quit working after Update 3.

I hope we can get a working version of AmiDVD soon, because it has been my main backup tool for many years (and many versions of AmiDVD).

Cheers,

Update:

The problem with me not being able to access Update 3 is now resolved. I have now been able to access it via the website and I have now downloaded it. Will test it out tonight

Not deep testing but it feels fast and steady. Pegasos2, no random Grims
/bugging any more.

Using it is as Amiga should be, everything flows well, finally. Remarkable better.

Thanks for all involved :)


Missing AmiDVD as many, but most likely it will come back. No other victims atm here.

@Mr_byte

Great to hear that you got it sorted! Enjoy the update!

I had the worst experience with the Update 3: downloaded with Amiupdate for my X5000, installed and everything seemed to be alright, but after installation machine did not reboot automatically.

I performed hard reset, but after splash screen of X5000, when turning to AmigaOS 4.1 splash screen, I have grey screen and anything else happens, also after many other reboot.

I'm stucked and I fear I have to reinstall all the OS from the beginning

Thats strange.
I did not understand where exactly in the boot process it ends up with a gray screen, is it before or after the Aos4.1 splash screen?
I'm just asking because if it's right after amigaboot have loaded the kickstart it's generally a kickstart problem, if it's after the splash screen it's something else.


I think this might be a case when a serial cable is needed to see where it fails without guessing like crazy.

There's "never" a need to reinstall Aos unless the harddrive is broken so i'm sure we could get you going again if we figure out where it fails.

A separate thread might be needed here :)
