[deadwood]

Yes, intelG45.hidd is no longer needed.

Please try previous ISOs in this order:

With ISO "AROS-20180415-2" the intelG45 works fine, see screenshot, should I test the other ISOs as well ?

[deadwood]

No, that is fine. So the regression is in last release. I will make a note of that and will fix it before next release.

[Amiwell]

Deadwood I tried another computer with Nvidia G200 and the HDMI exit is not recognized, the VGA works, I tried all the builds

[Amiwell]

vesa run fine

[deadwood]

Ok, that HDMI output looks like a missing functionality. I won't be investigating this now.

[Amiwell]

ok deadwood i purchased vga cable

Welcome to 2019! New ISO:

https://www.axrt.org/development/AROS-20190301-D4-pc-i386-boot-iso.zip

First, there is a known issue: cursor is not loaded from preferences.
Secondly, there are some change here that can cause issues on real hardware:
a) acpia.library is updated again
b) there were some conflicts with VMWare driver. If you used it before, check if it still works now
c) Whole ISO has been compiled with newer GCC/binutils (6.5.0/2.32) so again that can be optimization issues
Thirdly, the known issues of IntelGMA is NOT solved

[Amiwell]

ok deadwood thank you

[Amiwell]

ok run native(nvidia g210 1 Gb)/vesa mode works and speed increase very well

system app works fine
prefs app works fine
usb key works
audio "hdaudio" works
network "rtl8169" works

thank you

all best

[deadwood]

Thanks for the tests!

@deadwood

By cursor do you mean the Pointer ? because on ISO D4 the Ponter Prefs does not work

[deadwood]

Yes, correct. I meant the mouse pointer.

Hi,

we arrived at the final iteration for ISO upgrades: 20190416

https://axrt.org/development/AROS-20190416-D5-pc-i386-boot-iso.zip

I need to warn you though, that amount of internal changes in this last iteration is bigger than all 4 combined. Expect regression and possible loss of binary compatibility. Especially please test whole installation process - there were changes to grub and InstallAROS. Next step is to upgrade contrib archive to similar date. Once this is done I will start fixing reported problems.

Fixed:
- mouse pointer is visible again

Not fixed:
- IntelGMA regression
