AROS ABIv0 20180415 Development

[paolone]

I have been deleted from the ABIv1 Slack Channel because of a disagreement with a lead developer. I may not be able to commit changes to ABIv1. I'm a renegade now! I'm on my own.

Feel free to go on improving Icaros Desktop and ABIv0 as much as you can, as you like. Rude behaviours have been killing AROS much more than different opinions on how thing should be done.


I am currently following some other projects of mine and I had to put Icaros in standby for a little while, but I am still trying to keep track of all changes to AROS and AROS software, in order to add them once I'll get some spare time.


Thank you for your continued efforts and dedication.

Hello paolone

My original intent was to help improve IcarosDesktop. Somehow I got drawn into helping to develope x86-64. But that was probably for good reason. We have an IcarosDesktop 64bit version that needs some love and attention. 

It may be possible to contribute to ABIv0 more directly in the near future. We are working on the logistics of that atm.

We all know who the "lead developer" is...

I have said what I think of him and good bye there too. I will certainly not donate money to him anymore in future. I hate rude behavior, completely unacceptable to me independent of what someone might contribute or not. It was a good decision by f.e. the apollo team to branch and become independent. It becomes a big problem if one person thinks a open source project (that should be team work and motivate others to contribute) is his property and he decides everything.

do not let him make you leave... he is skilled without any doubts but he also has bad manners. Search for something you can do without him. The datatypes you created are compiled for 68k? I would try to test them in my distribution. Perhaps the apollo team also is interested in it. You could talk to them also. Super Multiview sounds good too. I would like to test and as I wrote apollo team might be interested too in it. The official ABI1 branch with the "lead developer" is no longer aros world alone.

You’re right rude behavior is completely unacceptable.  For example implying someone is a slug who leaches of the system and people good graces.

Guys, please stick to the topic of this thread.

I'm sorry about that. This thread is reserved for AROS development. I'll reply to all that in another thread so we can continue to discuss development.

Much progress is being made in AROS development. I'm particularly interested in improvements to the sound system and Apollo OS is making steady progress. Some of their improvements and updates for 68k may be very useful for other flavos of AROS.such as x86-64 or x86 (IcarosDesktop).

But getting back to the sound system. Recent improvement has been made to the ABIv0 AHI Sound System.

deadwood where can I find information about the API and the workings of AHI ?

Hello Olaf. In answer to your question. Yes the datatypes I'm working on either updating, adding save functions or writing from scratch will be available for AROS 68k, x86-64 & x86.

Other items such as datatypes for ABIv0 will hopefully be made available via the ISO images provided for testing. The most recent is picture datatype in the test ISO at the beginning of this thread if you'd like to try it. I'll build one for 68k as well.

I believe it is labelled for Testing not the one for Reference.

I intend to bring some of their changes to my repository as well somewhere in future.

Start with workbench/devs/AHI/Docs in repo

thank you deadwood

Works fine what I tried on my DELL D520. 3D, Sound and network.
Sys explorer and show config in Tools does not work. Sys explorer crash and show config does nothing.
This is nothing new from what I remember.

Ciao nikos, Sys Explorer works fine for me, in Show Config it is only a problem on the type of "Icon", add in Tooltype the parameter "CLI" and it will work.

@nikos

Indeed, both of issues were not adressed.

@AMIGASYSTEM

Crash of SysExplorer is related to one of the drivers that @nikos is running, so this is configuration specific.
