@spotUP

It's mainly just low-level hardware drivers that perform DMA which are affected, because there have been changes in how a memory must be allocated which can be used for DMA.

If they break, they were already broken in the first place.

There's an AROS bounty for a SB128 AHI driver. At the moment it's at 40$. How big would it need to be to get it ported and/or the sources contributed?

G'day Ross!

Nice to have you back in action.

@all
Ross is a starving student so don't forget to donate if you use his driver.
