AROS 68k updates from ApollOS repository

[OlafS3]

for keymap I found a quick fix

http://aminet.net/package/driver/input/EuroMaps

the italian euromap seems to work (and the other too I think, aros keymaps are compatible to amiga keymaps)

Regarding locale I see the same on the nightly... Prefs from Wanderer translated to italian but menu english

[OlafS3]

attached are are keymaps from euromaps and aros keymaps including italian

perhaps it works for you

Thanks, about the Italian keyboard I solved it by taking the Keymaps from my old version of AROS One68k v1.1 that work fine.

For the Wandere translation was as I suspected, it seems not to depend on the Catalogs, the ones from the old version of AROS One v1.1 did not work, they gave the same result.

Your Keymaps.7z work fine, but the Keymaps I have on AROS One 68k v1.1 are many more files, there are more languages, in the recent version of AROS 68k there are many missing Keymaps as well as some corrupted ones like for Italian.

Regarding the localization of Wanderer that does not exist in Italian, French, Spanish etc ... my suspicion is confirmed, everything depends on the App "Wanderer" I replaced it with the old version installed on my old AROS One 68k v1.1 and the Italian translation of Wanderer worked fine.

Of course it was just a test, the old "Wanderer" is not compatible with the new AROS 68k, if you use it the system crashes.

With your permission I'd like to do some testing and research to find out why PNG Icons don't display correctly on AROS 68k.

I've done some testing already and I'm somewhat familiar with the inner workings of Icon Library.

So far I have noticed that AROS 68k and AROS x86_64 share the same code base. So in theory 68k should be able to use PNG Icons. But when we use a PNG Icon on 68k what gets displayed is the planar gadget images. However Classic OS3.5 Icons show correctly. And Hybrid OS3.5 Icons with ARGB Data displays ok.

So maybe it isn't that Icon Library on 68k can't display ARGB. Maybe the diskobjpngio module isn't loading the ARGB Data?

For some reason I can't seem to enable debug in AROS 68k in WinUAE for Icon Library. It works for Icon Library in x86_64.

New rom:

https://axrt.org/development/aros-rom-20211202.zip

Two changes:
1)     BugFIX: Not autoScroll-up screen when user drag screen (with mouse pointer) until bottom-limit of screen.
2)    BugFIX: Support for partitions with NOMOUNT flag set    FIXES: HDD partitions marked as NOMOUNT are ignored and AUTOMOUNTed under AROS.

anything new for us to test?

Not at the moment, but there should be something next week. There are still around 8 changes to be merged.

I think you should report this to Mazze. I think he is maintaining the translations.

Sure, go ahead If you can fix it, it would be great.

For debug, you need to build with --with-serial-debug=yes and then redirect WinUAE serial port to a console (at least that's how things are done on Linux)

I don't know how to contact Mazze, if you can do it I thank you ! it's just a matter of time.

Ok then a PM is fine, I thought there was somewhere to communicate !

I reconfigured my target just to be sure using this to enable debug but other apps showed debug in 68k previously.

./configure --target=amiga-m68k --with-aros-prefs=classic --with-binutils-version=2.32 --with-gcc-version=9.1.0 --with-serial-debug=yes

I recompiled icon library and made sure to include "debug.h" with debug = 1. But still no output messages from icon library in AROS 68k.

Attached is a text file of a write test in support.c in the function "ReadIcon". If we are using Icon Library it will surely use this function...but I get nothing.

I'll try the same write test on AROS x86_64 to verify the results. If it writes the test file then that leads me to believe something is odd with AROS 68k.

Is AROS 68k using Icon Library? It must be. How could it display icons?

[AMIGASYSTEM]

Miker be careful, the icon.library of AROS 68k is fictitious, even if you delete it the icon.library will still work because "it is resident", this may mean that there is another copy of icon.library in the ROM.
