Timberwolf
Timberwolf

Re: Firefox
We don't have "FireFox" on the Amiga.. We have "TimberWolf"..
I think it has something to do with legal rights to the use of the name.
Since this is a port to a different platform, and the code is not directly
under the control of the Mozilla foundation.. something like that anyway.

Re: Timberwolf
Lyle is correct and nobody is allowed to use the trademarked name. Edited appropriately.

Re: Timberwolf
Timberwolf hangs unpredictably, though usually when I play with the scroll bar.
Most of the time if I wait 1 minute it will spring back to life. When it hangs I am unable to launch anything on the docky. I can still move the windows around.
Only the timberwolf causes this. I use iBrowse and amiFtp for my internet activities.
Now then. When Timberwolf 1st came out I don't remember this happening. There is a chance that my playing around with my X1000 caused this. I don't think it involves the router because my wife's iBook has no problem, even when my activity is hung.
I was hoping it was Timberwolf and expected this new version, being a reinstall, would correct the operation. Alas, no.
The hang is so offputing that I continue to use iBrowse whenever possible.
Any suggestions short of reinstalling the OS completely?

Yes I know that. It's the same with Isweasel in debian.LyleHaze wrote:We don't have "FireFox" on the Amiga.. We have "TimberWolf"..

My post was not an attempt to put doubt about it but to express that I was impressed over the speed of in TimberWolf. What I think is more interesting is that I can synkronicere my firefox account with both Isweasel and Timber Wolf.
However, TimberWolf is still a problem with getting it to work

Why not just use MUI-OWB? I don't see any downsides over iBrowse, only upsides...ggw wrote:The hang is so offputing that I continue to use iBrowse whenever possible.

That was last July. It is now the middle of November. Have we abandoned Timberwolf on the X1000 because of this problem?LyleHaze wrote:ggw:

Re: Timberwolf
Abandoned? I don't think so?
As it is, I use Timberwolf on a daily basis.

Re: Timberwolf
*sighs* Why the addition of "on the X1000" when no version came out at all? It seems to me to be a justification to post this in a support forum for the X1000.ggw wrote:That was last July.

No, Timberwolf has not been abandoned, I have already pointed out elsewhere why there hasn't been any development.
This topic is not supposed to be discussed here. www.amigans.net has a dedicated Timberwolf forum, please ask your questions there.
