I sometimes get a GR from Radeon driver during the boot. Just before WorkBench appears. It won't continue the boot, all I see is the CLI window. Reboot solves the problem, but it would be nice to know what causes this.
Machine: A1-XE (unfixed), 800 MHz G4, Radeon 7000, 512 MB RAM
OS: OS4 Final (clean install)

MemPatch (FinalWriter users read this!)

Here is a patch: MemPatchIts a quick and dirty hack I just knocked together in 5 mins. It basically patches the 68k AllocMem(), and AllocVec() functions and causes them to allocate an extra 8 bytes at the start and end of the buffer. It also places the requested allocation size just before the returned buffer in AllocVec() which some badly written software use. I don't recommend installing this patch as a matter of course, only install it if you find it makes a particular piece of software you need start working. Its a very ugly hack, and I would hope that someone could take this patch and make a per-application patch instead of a global patch like this one. (in other words, I hope this becomes obsolete very soon :) Someone told me that it got Final Writer running under OS4 Final, although your mileage may vary. (Oh, and in case someone was wondering, it wasn't the missing size field from AllocVec that prevents FW from working; it just happily overwrites the ends of its buffers). Oh yes! If you're putting it in your startup-sequence, DO NOT forget the "Run NIL:" since you can't quit the patch and it'll halt the bootsequence forever.

Thanks for the help anyway, that's another minor problem solved.

Also the workbench windows seem to cache data in some way, you can manipulate the icons even though they don't exists in the file system. OS4 needs a better notification system so that file windows can update their content when stuff happens in the file system. For example, os4 lost one of my partitions (dh2:) in the middle of doing nothing in particular, but all windows were still open and I could do icon/information on the icon. I only noticed that it was gone once I tried to load an icon image from the partition.

I have 5.0.3.3 as OS4final doesn't seem to have helped much. The main thing that stops me using it in preference to the old 68k v4, is the page window doesn't update properly when you scroll.
I very rarely use it anyway, I only bought it to support Pagestream on OS4.
I would like to see a finished working version though.
Hopefully it will all work out for Deron.

Holding Ctrl down on a USB keyboard on startup doesn't "boot with no start-up sequence" as it is supposed to. Looks like the input isn't being read from USB at that stage.

Versions/md5sums of your libraries? What kind of gfx card do you have? How did you installed OS4 Final? Updating or installing from scratch ? More info please.

It would be nice to see a 68k version released as well -- even with a limited feature set.
Truthfully, the only real change I'm interested in is better icon support (PNG, etc) -- for obvious reasons.
However, at this point, I'd even settle for being able to purchase a license for the "old" version.

Here it is the website of the openGL screensavers I talked you about. There is also the source code available. http://www.reallyslick.com/
I'd love to see any of these in our beloved OS4.0. Give it a try.
Wow impressive looking screen savers, lets hope some one port them over, any way nice way to learn GL I guess
