@Amiwell

I don't understand your question.

I meant there will be an evolution of the TCP stack

[deadwood]

I haven't seen anyone working on it.

[Amiwell]

ok deadwood thanks

if I don't use the usb mouse the pointer is visible

Hello,

New ISO is available, fixing mostly issues with boot: https://axrt.org/development/aros-pc-x86_64-alpha-5.zip

There are two more open topics before the release is made, unless some other major problems are found.

Code: [Select]

Open topics:
- Regression in Cycle.mui when clicking cycle gadget
- MPlayer does not play video when video opened from icon

Fixed:
- Shutting down in VirtualBox no longer works
- Warm reboot causes crash
- When using SATA, disk names are not automatic pre-filled in InstallAROS blocking installation
- InstallAROS does not install Development directory
- Configuring NVMe disk in VirtualBox causes booting to freeze
- Warm reboot on VirtualBox and Qemu
- nvme.device crash in VirtualBox when booting
- i8042.hidd delays/freezes boot on certain hardware
- crash in pciusb.device when booting

Wont-fix:
- USB mouse/keyboard is only detected is connected during boot
- Delay ~10 seconds when booting SATA disk
- nvme.device/SFS error in VirtualBox when installing


For those who are stuck on a black screen on native with NVME drives try adding NVME=disable to your boot line.

I Installed  on VB and it seems to be running well.It booted well after install and auto and  chose 1024x768.Looks awesome already! Network configuration recognized PCNet after i hit the add.Very Excited about this 64  Awesome work!

It's good that it's working for you. My x86-64 installation works in Hosted Mode on Linux. It's just that I don't have mouse and keyboard at the boot screen so I can't choose the screen resolution. I have to use the default settings.

miker, you can solve it safely by copying the "screenmode.prefs" file to SYS:Prefs/Env-Archive/SYS

You can copy the "screenmode.prefs" that you use on AROS x86

Hi All,

The new release is now completed and can be downloaded from:

https://github.com/deadw00d/AROS/releases/tag/ABIv11_20230430-1
https://axrt.org/downloads-aros

Below you will find final change log. Thank you everyone who tested this version. Enjoy using this release

I also prepared another alpha ISO, this time combining core system with contrib programs, including C and C++ compiler: https://axrt.org/development/aros-pc-x86_64-alpha-6.zip

Here is a list of known issues for the ISO:
- USB mouse/keyboard is only detected is connected during boot
- delay ~10 seconds when booting SATA disk
- nvme.device/SFS error in VirtualBox when installing
- possible NVME crash on some hardware, add 'NVME=disable' to grub command line as a workaround
- if you experience issues booting, try adding 'noacpi' or 'noioapic' to grub command line

deadwood, thanks for the new ISO, the parameter "NVME=disable", of precise where should it be placed ?

[deadwood]

This parameter is only needed if you have NVME hardware in your machine and AROS does not boot. It needs to be added to kernel command list in GRUB (same ways like 'noacpi' and 'noioapic' options)

[AMIGASYSTEM]

OK

[Amiwell]

deadwood I have a new laptop I know it's soon but I will test aros x64, I can't boot from usb even if I disabled secure boot from bios so I took an external cd reader that must arrive I will let you know

There's a good chance you still won't be able to boot until XHCI is finished being fixed by kalamatee if that's a USB CD Drive.

[Amiwell]

I have two USB 2.0 compatible ports
