software OS4   software OS4 : New version 1.3 of AmiCygnix released
   posted by CygnusEd on 8-Feb-2013 17:41:00 (1785 reads)
The two base packages "AmiCygnix-Base" and "AmiCygnix-Tools" are now available
in the version 1.3.

Click READ MORE for details:

New in AmiCygnix-Base:
  • A new display driver, which opens its display on a separate screen. It is
    an enhanced version of the driver "picasso96clonewb", but offers a better
    performance.

  • The X server did not supported dead keys. Has been resolved.

  • Keyboard layouts that do not conform to ISO-8859-1 standard (eg Polish or
    Greek keyboards) are now better supported.

  • The preferences programs "myX11Setup" and "myX11SetupLight" were revised and
    an Italian and a Swedish catalog has been added.

  • Some programs had problems with file names containing umlauts. Has been
    largely eliminated.

  • It was reported, that some systems freezed while opening the X server dis-
    play. The bug is fixed now.


    • New in AmiCygnix-Tools:
  • GTK+ programs were relinked to solve above mentioned keyboard problems.

  • The picture viewer "GPicView" can now display pictures in SVG and XCF (Gimp)
    format.

  • The PDF viewer "Xpdf" could not be launched, if the "Quick Transfer" mode
    was enabled. This is fixed now.

    Definately feels faster on my Sam440flex, especially dragging windows around in GIMP. Thanks for your hard work!

    Can you install these without reinstalling everything like Abiword and Gimp?

    Yup, no problem, you don't need to reinstall anything.
