@CygnusEd

Thanks, that was it, I didn't see the tools-archive but it's installed and working fine

There is a problem with the width of the amicygnix screen : just use the calendar (right-down the screen).

Or move the screen (but other than vertical move) with the drag bar.


By the way thanks and it's already really faster than V1.

Edgar, you rule man! Awesome!

@Kicko

As tommysammy said, the next release will be Gimp 2.6.11. The port is finished and I'm working on the packages.
Gimp 2.8 should be possible, but it will need some time. Some dependencies are not solved yet. And there is another problem. Gimp 2.8 make intensive use of the new GEGL library. GEGL is extremely slow - you will see it in Gimp 2.6. It is optionally used there for some operations.

What is the resolution you're using? Can you make a screenshot of this problem?

Just curious, is all this quite fast on an A1-X1000?

I'll let him know. It's a minor issue that should be easy to resolve. I'm doing a fresh install of all AmiCygnix packages and haven't found any other problems. Thanks for the hard work. AmiCygnix is a "must-have" Amiga application.

I have downloaded both the base and tools and installed, I have to say very impressed, runs on a better screen resolution (1920 x 1080) and seems much faster.

Thank you for all the hard work, much appreciated

@all

The update seems to work well so far. Good news for me
But don't be afraid to tell me any problem.

Will there be a version that installs without having the AmigaOS SDK installed?
I am getting an "SDK:" -error, when trying to install...

@Nicsoft

The AmiCygnix package has only a few dependencies to the SDK. Some very few perl scripts are included, which are using the perl interpreter of the SDK. The second is the included binary of the abc-shell "sh", which may want to try to access data in the SDK.
The only part in the installer script where the abc-shell is used, is the initialisation of the MIME settings. So I guess it happens there?

Please check your PATH variable with "getenv PATH" in a shell. Maybe there is a path included starting with "/SDK"?

Basically I need to know, at which part of the installation procedure the problem occurs.

@CygnusEd

I've sent some screenshots and the install_log_file to your email address...

@Nicsoft

Thanks for the screenshots! Now it is clear.
As I thought, it is a problem of the abc-shell and it happens while initialisation of the MIME data.
Can you make a log file with Snoopy, so I can see what the abc-shell wants to access? Snoopy is available on OS4-depot.
I suggest to use the expert mode while installation and to start Snoopy after copying the "Install-Archive" drawer.

Thanks!

Hi,

I have a problem but I'm not sure it's since the 1.1 installation... I can't quit, the Shutdown and Quit in the pull down menu do nothing, I had to RESET myn A1, anyone have this problem?

Thank you.

Did you double-click the 'Shutdown' icon?

Edgar has replied by email and he gave me instructions how to solve the problem!

I was told to launch these commands in a shell.

"SetEnv HISTFILE /Cygnix/CygnixPPC/var/abc-shell/history"

"SetEnv ENV /Cygnix/CygnixPPC/var/abc-shell/variables"

"SetEnv PATH /Cygnix/CygnixPPC/gtk2.24/bin:/Cygnix/CygnixPPC/bin:/Cygnix/CygnixPPC/X11R6.3/bin:/C"

Then (again) run the Installer (Base-installation)...
Now it worked flawlessly!

But the same problem that Pierre55 had, occurred. AmiCygnix wouldn't quit!
The solution was to reboot and install the Tools-installation. Now Quit among other things works as supposed to...

Hi,

Maybe I missed something because still can't quit after doing what you explained, should I change to AmiCygnix directory because doing the commands?

While I installed the base program I have a requester asking for the SH files, I did the assign to SDK/c.

Thank you

I have this same problem and I installed the tools package as well. I installed 1.1 on top of the old installation. (I have SDK installed.)

@Pierre55
You don't have to reset your machine. Open Amiga Shell on Workbench and type Status command. Then check what process number you have in front of ../../XGeekPPC and type Break command and that number. That will kill X11 server/AmiCygnix.

@Pierre55 @Tomppeli

Well, I did a "clean" new installation. Not an update.
Therefore the need of the commands from Edgar (CygnusEd).

Your problems seems to be update-related (1.0-1.1)!?

Let's see what Edgar can come up with...

The solution posted in #35 is only to fix the problem while installation. If a requester appeared asking for "SDK:", you need this solution or you wait for a fixed package I want to release.

I'm also working on the shutdown problem. I've found already a problem and I need someone to test it. Do you like to test it or anybody else?

Hi.

Sure I can test this for you...

Bye!
