OS4.1 Update 2 problems & solutions

I have downloaded with ibrowse but unarc says that the filetype is unknown.

@Dirk-B

Try dl it with last OWB , here is working OK!

@VooDoo

Ok, i have downloaded the lha with safari on the mac, burned it to a cd and
put the cd in the A1, the installation went 100% fine.

@Dirk-B

You must use lha (68k or AOS4 version on aminet) for decompressing this update. Unarc just don't skip the additionnal header.

@Mrodfr

If anything you should use UnArc, especially if extracting to a JXFS partition, since with default settings lha doesn't extract the file protection bits.

Additional header sounds like your file was corrupt.

I noticed that the SmartButton dockies do not display icon transparencies correctly if used on a 16 bit screen.

A work-around is to create image files from the icons and use them instead of the icon files.

Edit: I just noticed that with update 2, you can no longer place the SmartButton docky title to the right of the image (unless I'm doing something wrong). The title settings for the SmartButton dockies seem to be over-written by the AmiDock settings.

@Dirk-B


Use lha x -a "filename" "destination" and that will do the trick.

The -a will preserve the file attributes which apparently you need to do.

I had no problems at all installing both updates so far but with Update 2 my kick startup bar still says Update 1?....everything else is fine as Workbench says Update 2 but is this normal?

I used NetSurf 2.5 to download the file. UnArc worked just fine. Update completed.

Thats normal, you can load Kickstart/Kicklayout into a text editor & change the label to 'LABEL AmigaOS4.1 Update 2' & save.

@xeron

hum, I know now why I haven't the E flag with LHA. thanks.

@all,

It seems that there is still issue with first letter entered. You have to press key twice to display it on screen.

Thanks for this update.

@glames

Are you talking about USB keyboards and the first key press?
I didn't know this was a problem in the USB keyboard driver, i thought it might be related to my keyboard not USB standard or something like that?

@all/devs

Is the "SetVar_Patch53" still valid or has this particular glitch been fixed with update 2 so i can get rid of the file?

Hi @sundown

...load Kickstart/Kicklayout into a text editor & change the label to 'LABEL AmigaOS4.1 Update 2' & save.
Thanks for that info! I was just about to ask...

@glames

This bug has been fixed in the meantime, the patch was just too fresh to be included in the update still. We'll stick that one in Update 3.

@Rogue,

Great!

Thanks for info.

@Raziel,

Well, I don't know if it's related to USB but my keyboard is indeed USB-plugged.

@glames

Can't seem to have noticed such a thing. Hm.

But i have no clue if people have problems with dl and installing this update. Wen't like a charm. Couple of minutes and up and running the update 2

The dos.library.kmod file was replaced with update 2, so I removed the patch.

@Rogue

I have found a tiny cosmetic "bug":

Fontprefs shows the Workbench-partition-Icon in original Size (in my case 128x128pixel) but i have turned on the icon scaling.

@sundown

ok that did it..thanks
