to make a long story short. OS4final is only unstable/crashing when you do not do a clean install or use badly written 68k software.

In other words... OS4 is stable.

The only thing we need now is native versions/alternatives for things like Finalwriter and other 68k software that is giving us some problems.

Shouldn't people that are able to do some coding form a group and concentrate on 1 project a time ... When well organized things like OpenOffice would go a *lot* faster.
I can not imagine that everybody who is able to code can't miss 1 hour/week to port some code. And I do not ment only the OS4 people, I can imagine that also the MorphOS users want it. (and Arosusers and classicusers) ...

Have you done any coding yourselves ever? Or even did some porting? I'm currently 'porting' an existing Amiga project. Due to several factors it comes down to a clean rewrite, whilst retaining the gist of the project. Some parts are overly complex, some parts work by God's grace, some parts can *NEVER* work and, hence, can be removed as being superfluous.
It certainly is no great fun when a source lacks any form of comment or is written in spaghetti-style: breaking it down into digestible parts, to be tested seperately and putting it back together again.
No. a good design and a clean start will give you quite an edge in such cases.

I am no expert, but things like OpenOffice are not written by 1 person? And I know, porting software that had no update in 10 years is mostlikely not really usefull.

@Rogue

For me OS4final is really stable, thank You for that. Crashing programs are different.The only broblem is in the U-Boot as I have to write boota at startup.

@Aminicle

Certain os4 software crashes too. typemanager always gives a guru whrn you quit it and after installing more than one font.
on Os4 final simplemail randomly gurus, could be simplemails problem. And on AMidoc I had a problem where one cataegory hung the system when selected. with busy cursor and had to yuse reset button on case to get out of it. I deleted it using prefsobject editor saved the prefs to envarch/sys again and turned machine off and on and it was still there hanging the system when chosen. had to delete all amidoc prefs and rebuild them to get things working again.
I do admit os4 final is faster and most gurus are form 68k pgms like arrteffect they happen on it when quiting occassionally. also some times if i star simple mail while running ibrowse I get a guru that requires reboot.
and yes I have all the updated mui classes and latest simplemail and latest Ibrowse registered.
Also sound is awesome now on previous updates there was a lot of what sounded like machine noises on the sound that is all cleared up and osund is clean and crisp.

Now you wrote it the second time without answering my first reply where I
asked for details.

From my point of view there exists no problem with TypeManager, just installed
29 fonts into the RAM disk without problems to prove it.

@painter

I haven't had any problems with sound on pre-versions when listening to MP3's (or whatever format) and browsing. However, I was listening to a MP3 and tried the Matrix GL screenblanker in fullscreen and the sound became distorted .

I'm happy with the release of AOS 4 Final though. It's kind of sad that Final Writer doesn't work anymore but Word Worth seems to work and Amiga Writer works just fine and that's enough for me.

What I hoped for was that my HP LaserJet would work, but it doesn't . When I booted Linux with kernel 2.4.x it would work great to print both in Linux, and after a reset, also in AOS 4. It would work for as long as I didn't turn off the printer. Now however I'm using kernel 2.6.x in Linux and I haven't been able to make USB work this far and it just won't work in AOS 4. It seems like it's printing but nothing happens.

I was hoping that the new option "Always init printer" in prefs/printer would solve the problem but it doesn't. This is really anoying since it's working except for this .

The other problem is that my SonyEricsson K610i doesn't work either. This was reported long ago. You'll get an error requestor when you plug it in, you can copy files but you can only access a few of them from the phone.

I hope that both these things will be fixed.

@TetiSoft

okay sorry for the omission. heres a crash log from type manager all I did was open type manager and close it, I did not install anything. Also I took kill program and it froze the system. It always freezeds system after selecting kill program on type manager gurus. If you want gurus for ibrowse and Amidisk? ArtEffec? audio.device?
Don't get me wrong I am enjoyingOs4 final.

Thats not a crash of TypeManager, thats a crash of requester.class
called by TypeManager. Probably TypeManager wanted to ask you if
you want to save your current settings or not, opened requester.class,
called it, boom.

> If you want gurus for ibrowse and Amidisk? ArtEffec? audio.device?

No thanks, I'm not the maintainer of those. When you have crashlogs
from them which do *not* mention requester.class as first entry after
the "Stack trace:" line, their authors or maintainers may be interested.

Back on topic, when you were able to create a crashlog with GrimReaper,
I can assume that you saw the initial GR requester which is also based
on requester.class and it didnt crash.

So my first guess about your problem is that you modified
SYS:Prefs/Presets/Requester/Question but not
SYS:Prefs/Presets/Requester/Error and that requester.class doesnt like
the modification. To prove that, you can check if trying to quit NotePad
with a modified but not saved text shows a requester with a question mark
or a crash.

@virgolamobile

Not run in to any series problems yet, but I get the impression that OS4 Final detects more problems and as result breaks more software new and old, as result we see lots of updated of programs on OS4Depot, at the same time it looks like has increased compatibility a little, and improved speed I noticed this in E-UAE, I think USB is more stable under OS4 final then update 4, I have no hard evidence on that yet, installation when whit out any problems for me, simple backup, then a quick format, booted from install CD, and installed OS4 final, whit out any trouble, OS4 Final did not require any u-boot updating, so a bit easier to install this time around, the overlay support is unreal, scale to any size, no slowdown.

After installing OS4 Final I run in to some trouble whit Heretic II, so I decided to make split my workbench partition in tow and make dual boot, so now I can boot update 4 and use final when ever I like. (Well you need hack the kickstart layout file to do that, so you can load kickstart modules from update4), I have not managed to predefine boot partition yet, any one know how to do that?

> requester.class V51.18

Gotcha! That bug was fixed in

requester.class 51.19 (28.5.2006)
[...]
- No longer tries to temporary modify input strings (which could be write-
protected).

Please re-install V52.1 from the OS4final install CD.

@NutsAboutAmiga

> have not managed to predefine boot partition yet, any one know how to do that?

See the doc file for bootmenu (IIRC Documentation/Kickstart/bootmenu.doc),
and dont forget that only the OS4final version of bootmenu supports the
BootDevice feature, so you should make sure that you are loading the OS4final
version, not the update4 version of bootmenu.kmod in the KickLayout file
in the config section which describes what to load for update4. To be on the
safe side, also use the OS4final version of Loader. Yes, I can confirm both
of them do work when loaded together with update4 modules, tested it.

@TetiSoft

My understanding is that I need to make file called BootDevice

By typing echo DH1 >BootDevice

Then edit my kickstart layout to load Bootdevice ?

“not the update4 version of bootmenu.kmod in the KickLayout”

I keep this in mind when I try again

1 week without a GR!!!

AOS4 is rock solid!!!

It is very stable here best OS4 update.

For all who experince instability: check your machine as well (cooling, memory, cables...).

That's correct, but their cooling didn't change when they updated OS4 (I hope).
So a more probable cause is mixed or buggy versions of certain files, as the one
tetisoft found for painter.

It is running pretty solid here! I formatted and installed into the formatted partition.

I just got Quake III running and played through a few rounds. It finally locked up, but when I tried it on the PC it did the same thing, so the port is really close.

My biggest evil on my A1 XE w/G4 is the unfixed DMA drive. It takes next to forever to load things to the hard drive. I am thinking of converting over to Serial ATA as that is what I currently use on my PC and it is much faster.

It seems to me that when GR´s do come I can usually kill the program with more success than previously.

So I have to say that the final OS4 version is so far the best version yet for stability. I would say it is even far more stable than the old original Amiga was. Especially when I needed to run a pal program. I am so glad that pal/NTSC thing is behind us now. That used to drive me bonkers.
