Text from Hyperion Entertainment Blog:

Quote:

Just a quick note to say the development and testing teams are working on AmigaOS 4.1 Update 4 right now.

Several issues identified in Update 3 and earlier are being addressed thanks to direct customer feedback via Hyperion's support forum. A huge thanks to all those that have taken the time to register and post your bug reports! AmigaOS can only get better with direct customer feedback so keep it coming.

Along with the usual assortment of bug fixes, there may well be a surprise or two as well.

AmigaOS Development Team Lead

@Tomas & samo79:

Keep your bootpartition ('SYS:') religiously clean of any third parties stuff and Bob your uncle.

I still keep wondering after all these postings as to why people keep on mixing all things up.

How we all should to know, what will be next if not by this announcement ? Asking on forums again and again ?


Well, at least it was not an announcement of a future announcement Perhaps some people should simply enjoy what they have. Features&fixes come in next updates and the updates are delivered when done, it's not that hard to understand I think.

Quote:
As for "minority" of update, imho it will be not so minor. It will be someting the same as beetwen morphos 2.6 and 2.7. It will have: mui fixes (so muiowb will works better), usb2.0 fixes and some fixes in gfx drivers/and p96 (that what i know).


MorphOS 2.7 was a minor update (just like 2.1, 2.3 & 2.5). A few fixes are a minor update or just a quick-fix and it seems it's minor also for Hyperion as they have chosen to name it update 4 and not AmigaOS 4.2.

How about first releasing an update and if all bugs (the most serious or whatever) are fixed and they are to go on to 4.2 then they release an ISO?

But I don't understand the need of announcing that work is being done on a minor update unless there are users with big problems. I mean, why announcing it now instead of announcing it when it's finished and available for end users? I don't get it.

Here are my reasons since you absolutely must know:
1. To demonstrate that progress is being made and AmigaOS 4.1 is not being abandoned.
2. To encourage more people to report bugs and problems via the official support forum.
3. Because I felt like it.

Blogs are funny that way. Sometimes they have useful information and sometimes not. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a plane to catch...

LMAO but not sure what "patience seizure" means ;)


@ Hyperion

Nice fast development cycle. This is how it should be. I want to get os4 but should I wait for "4.2" so I dont have to buy it twice??? How long will it be for 4.2 estimated? Will X1000 be shipping with 4.2 or 4.1?

Ssolie

Those are good reasons. Good decision. Seems some people are frustrated so this is hopeful news. Wish I was home in Cali so I could go to Amiwest and meet youi and see x1k in action! Good luck.

Not sure that he ask about YOUR reassons. He ask just for the whole Hyperion, which is not only you , right ?

What else you felt like ? I mean didn't you think that all your answers lately (on hp forum, here), are too much "i think, i felt like, i , i", no ? Didn't it better to say "we" ? I.e. whole team , which no presented by just only you ?

If you like to have some "team lead" label, didn't you think that ego stuff should be put to the later, and not to the first ?

Sometimes i just don't get your answers/posts.

@realize

If you want to support hyperion, you buy 4.1 and then 4.2 when it comes for sale.

My last answer/post mean, that Ssolie have big-fat ego, which a bit suck. In every post lately , he point out that he = hyperion. Like he only one, and only alone do everything, make every decission, and do all the work. Its just sounds too much ego. That what i mean. While he do (looks like) more or less right things for hyperion, still, his manner of answers are too much ego.

Well now, my SYS: has always been clean and that did not stop an old version of kickstart from loading on bootup. Nor prevent a new SATA drive from booting. I am still trying to figure out what I did wrong. I don't blame the mess I (still) have on Update 3, I blame it on myself.

I've always done a fresh install and probably will continue to.

EDIT: corrected spelling error.

I understand that you do not want to spend funds for 4.1 only to find that 4.2 comes out shortly there after, but sooner or later if you want OS4 you are just going to have to bite the bullet and get it.

Of course knowing if 4.2 was shipped with the X1000 would sure help you in your decision making.

Oh come on, does he really strike you as such? I think he only sounds like someone who is speaking for Hyperion by their direction.

I, for one, am happy that ssolie is speaking.

Kas1e is very passionate about os4 and amiga. I agree with you and him. Since Steve came along things have been MUCH improved with Hyperion. However, statements like "Because i feel like it " are somewhat arrogant especially for the community rep for the company..

I am happy to pay my hard earned $ on hobbies all the time, whether it be restoring old VWs, playing with old computers, you name it.

At some point you just need to bite the bullet as Moxee said, otherwise you never move forward and enjoy the new stuff.

I would think though most companies offer cheaper upgrade pricing if your purchase is within 90 days of your original purchase. That would be nice of them if they feel 4.2 is coming within next 90 days, to offer 4.1 at reduced price and if you want 4.2 later, and it comes up within 90 days, you get a special price or something.

But, in the end, if you are supporting your hobby and folks that are making cool stuff for it, it costs more for most of us in the end. Such is life.
