Re: New Workbench Windows with Navigation (Reaction based)

Exactly Thomas The AmigaOS concept is to build on what already makes it grand not redefine it by merging it with other OSs. Why anyone wants OSs to behave the same is beyond me. People add a feature and call it progress instead of refining the strengths and holding true to the OSs indentity and indi...

Re: New Workbench Windows with Navigation (Reaction based)

(some people just prever MOS because they can do this ;) ) These types of individuals are called computer users, they believe a computer is a tool and they also believe one or two features (individually assessed, wanted and justifed by themselves) is worth there loyalty. I wouldn't want them fighti...

Re: Amiga 4000 OS4.1-CD SCSI,CD IDE Error

Is that a retail CD? If so don't some audio CDs have protection? Since there is a directory in the drawer of DH0 I can only assume you've dragged it across, have you tried using software designed to rip audio CDs as CDDA or AIFF for example? The reason the 3.9 installation CD copies across fine is t...

Re: Amiga 4000 OS4.1-CD SCSI,CD IDE Error

I'm just trying to work out what's happening in the picture Have you dragged the CD icon across by holding down the left mouse button then released it over the open window? It looks like there is part of a name matching the CD volume name beneath the error message Does this happen when you drop it i...

Re: Amiga 4000 OS4.1-CD SCSI,CD IDE Error

Things aren't clear enough here and why is your WORK partition called DH0 or DHO and not WORK (or did you rename it for the picture?) very generically are you saying once you insert a audio cd this message pops up? or is it once you double click an icon in the drawer shown in the photograph that err...

Re: Out of memory

400MB or 400KB? Also, what kind of graphics card do you have? I'd be more inclined to believe this would be a limitation of your graphics memory not the X1000s memory pool segmentation or fragmentation might have some bearing on it too? what are you doing or combination of what you are doing that us...

Re: Moving symbolic links on SFS partition??

I used to hate softlinks with a passion and used to backup my GG: installation with tar then untar it with the -h operator so it would dump the file instead of the link Not sure if this indeed is the proper solution but it sure made moving my GG: installation across volumes alot easier We do have ba...

Re: RAD device not working on X1000

That's one way of looking at it I suppose but I was interested on a more personal level since I haven't used RAD at all since I moved to AmigaOS4.x I used to use RAD extensively in the earlier days even on my A4000 PPC, I had shell scripts that would write renamed adfs to RAD volumes which were call...

Re: RAD device not working on X1000

If you want this automated then I think it happens more often than not ;)
