Check out the GUI prefs program, page "Effects". Enable "Compositing effects" and experiment with the "Window transparency" sliders.

I have mine at 0, 10, and 25%, respectively.

With 2.56, now it connects correctly to update.amigaos.net

Great.

Sorry if this is a newbie question…. In OS 4.1 FE… are windows supposed to have any transparency? If so, how do you enable that transparency? Check out the GUI prefs program, page "Effects". Enable "Compositing effects" and ...

The problem has now been solved in the new AmiUpdate 2.56.

Not sure exactly what caused the situation, but changes at the server created a situation AmiUpdate wasn't prepared for, as far as I understand. Rigo has now strengthened AmiUpdate to survive such situations.

So update to 2.56, and all ...

While you're waiting for your FE to arrive, you should make a full backup of what you have on your disk, and create a new partition to install FE on.

Still, it's a possibility.

Try, wiht the new listbrowser.gadget installed, to open a Shell and enter ...

I use www.amiupdate.net without problems (on AmiUpdate 2.55).

If I select the update of AmiUpdate it will update but after reboot, a second ...

I think SAM460LE is not so supported by OS4.1 - I think I will buy an X5000 (not so soon).
Sam46LE should absolutely be supported by OS4.1 - it wouldn't make much sense to build it if it wasn't.

Maybe there are some specific issues with SDL and the 460LE? I wouldn't know, but the people who are ...
