Nice, quick and Blick

Will this hot fix also have the release of the updated GUI prefs?

It would be nice to use the new notification with all the bells and whistles

same experiece here with my X1000 so far all good with Update 2 being installed directly over existing my Update 1 install...of course you should back up your sys partition before installing Updte 2 eh

Thank you Hyperion for the unexpected updated! Happy new year! I installed it over 4.1 FE u1 and seems to be fine. This is on a Pegasos 2 g4 1ghz w/1gb ram Radeon 9000pro. Actually seems better/faster! mame is working fine, Run in UAE is OK, I was able to make some floppies with adfs and catweasel as well. Actually helped with internet becuase my certs were expired and ssl problems I couldnt really surf. This update cured that!

After a clean install of 4.1FE and updates 1 & 2 is it possible to install the Enhancer normally or is it not recommended at the moment?
or do you have to wait for updates from amistore?
Thanks

@white
You can, but it will overwrite some updated system components: sound datatypes and a few tools & prefs like clock, format, time. It also will install for you some uber-slow logfile.datatype, which will then slow things down VERY MUCH when you will for example tries to watch in multiview content of .log files.

When Enhancer management will rename their versions to something which didn't match the exact names of original os4 ones and didn't include components like logfile.datatype, then there should be all fine. But for now, if you overwrite system ones by Enhancer's ones, you may have new bugs.

@kas1e
Thanks for the explanation and reply
I'm leaving out the Enhancers at the moment and I'll wait.

@All
Hotfix it out! Grab it while it hot!

Ready for acxtion here, too, except. . .

Except for Updater. It was working for me again before the hot fix, after enabling Effects in GUI prefs. Now Updater is dead again.

Locks me up when I click the Amidock icon, or the System drawer Updater icon. Lcoks up when I try to run it from shell.

Otherwise, I have Tunenet running smoothly while also replying to this message.

@sTix
This time big thanks going to Costel who organize and prepare hotfix and updated the update2 archive (so new users will have no need for a hotfix, just a new version of update2).

Also to Benny who is new "management" and who is good at communication.

And of course to actual developers coding stuff: Frederik for fixing bugs in the kernel and in some components, Colin for improve/fixing dos.library and others directly and not directly involved with hotfix.

@paul

Don't you mess updater and amiupdate again? updater is aeons app, known to be buggy and lockups on running. amiupdate it's related to Hyperion. Tunenet also buggy like shit and can trash all the memory in all the ways. If you still mean issues with AmiUpdate (not Updater), then you better download hotfix as .lha from the site and install it by hands.

@kas1e

No. Updater from aeon is what I'm having trouble with. Only reason I post it in this thread too is because it was working again after Khayoz's suggestion to enable Effects in GUI prefs.

Now after installing the hotfix it's not working again.

BTW, I did do it manually by getting the hotfix from Hyperion's download page. I didn't even think to use Amiupdate for it, after I saw on Facebook the notice from Hyperion that the hotfix was available.

Paul

@Paul

Yeah, Updater is buggy. Just bug hides for some and unhides from others in different conditions. But when it lockup, it always points out on that listviewer or how it called class from Aeon, so all in their hands now to fix. Because as it now, it just for real can't be used.

@kas1e

I'm away from my X5000 for two days and what happens?
Amiga OS4.1FE Update 2.1 !

Unheard of in the Amiverse! ;)

Thank you to all the people involved in this!

Updater says:
"An update to the MUI shared libraries is available"

Recommended to install?
Thanks!

@Primax

Always.
It has a lot of bug fixes and feature updates under the hood and MUI is actively developed, and being tested/used by hundreds of users of Hollywood f.e., let alone the many MUI apps on AmigaOS/MorphOS
