ACE man I can kiss you bud !!!!!! This is my first post using Timberwolf baby and it's running nice on my Samflex@800 for a beta release!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!yahooooooooooo...I'm having problems with pull downs too so far too but chekcing my usual sites and they work fine and load fast
*** WHERE'S THE NEWS ITEM ***
*** BIG THANKS TO THE FRIEDEN BRO'S FOR DELIVERING YET AGAIN FOR US ***
First of all, please know that this is an Alpha release. This means that
some functionality is not in yet or not working, and the program still
contains many bugs.
Launching Timberwolf
Timberwolf is launched by double clicking on it's icon. If you run it
for the first time, it will take considerably longer than on subsequent
runs. Since there is no splash screen yet, it will look as if nothing is
happening.
Known Problems
There is a number of known problems with this release:
- Menus display correctly (mostly), but selecting items with the mouse
isn't working. Therefore, we recommend using shortcuts (ALT+underlined
letter to open menu, cursor keys to select).
- Some boxes on web pages do not show correctly. They might even destroy
some of the UI elements.
- When launched for the fist time, the window will be taller than the
screen. You'll have to resize it (if you can't reach the size gadget,
use the ctrl+alt key method to resize on any edge of the window)
- Speed is currently much lower than it could be. A conceptual problem
in the rendering code (leading to massive overdraw, sometimes 2 to 8
times) and missing hardware acceleration is responsible for that.
Since we're updating to a newer release of the base source code
(Firefox 3.7), this will be addressed later..
- It crashes a lot. It might even crash when just looking at it. Don't
use it for homebanking yet.
Reporting Bugs
There is a support forum for Timberwolf at http://www.amigans.net.
Please report any bugs that you find. Note that we might not answer
to all of the reports, but we will read and try to address all of them.
Too bad that my SAM440EP had to be sent on a trip to Italy . At least I will have something to look forward to trying out when it gets back though .
Menus have issues with mouse coordinates, that's why you should operate them using the shortcuts, or press ALT + menu shortcut and navigate with the cursor keys.
Seriously, if you do want to contact me write me a mail. You're more likely to get a reply then.

ah yes that works great! guess I was just too excited Thanks again this is really big news for Amiga !!! second donation coming coming my way
WoW! to be an Alpha is fast and well usable here on my sam , i have also seen that you update your site too nice look now
I am really impressed by your work
Thanks and keep up with the good work
There's a lot of work left to be done. Quite a bit of the UI depends on correct subwindow rendering, which currently doesn't work most of the time. As Thom already wrote in the release notes, the rendering code has a bit of an issue (I started it way before I know the subtleties of the rendering engine's concept) and needs a large rewrite, but that sounds more dramatic than it is really, since a lot of work was not writing code but understanding how it is supposed to work.
If you look closely, you will sometimes see parts of the window go completely black for a moment, there's a lot of overdraw going on in the refresh code, things like that will have to go, making the whole affair noticeably faster. Plus, there is no hardware acceleration whatsoever yet.

Thanks devs. Its nice to see the first public beta. I will not comment too much on bad things as i know its beta and everything is written in the readme. But its nice to have it here and can actually try out firefox on my miggy for the first time.
Im writing here right now with it :)
Couldnt test to login on some sites as i cant use the (at) sign. I cant copy/paste either.
Thanks. Will watch for updates :) And ofcourse donate soon.
