AmigaOS 4.1 and year 2011
« on: November 13, 2011, 02:05:47 PM »
Hi, I'm an old Amiga enthusiatic, in the last few months I rediscovered the amiga, with an old Amiga 1200 Classic and with an Sam440ep.
I loved amiga, I'm a windows user at work and a macosx user at home.

Amigaos 4.1 has cooled my expectations. The system is very slow (but this was not a really surprise), The most annoying thing is that the system is really unstable, requiring several restarts!! The gui is not so clean, the fonts are quite rough (I tried two monitors and different screen resolutions). I suppose the system is still under heavy development. I like to program for my hobbies. The nice thing is that you can download the SDK even though I find that lack of documentation and it takes longer to understand the mechanisms of events and interfaces.
Internet browsing is some what frustrating.
I'm sure this is the beginning of a long journey, I'm sorry if my opinions are out of place but as I'm fairly new excuse me.
Thank you very much
:rtfm:

Yes, not update problem, whole system seems fragile

Which system are you saying is unstable, the A1200 or the Sam?  

The Sam system, classic A1200 is the same I left :)
Searching in the net I saw that qt4.7 were ported to amiga, this would be a great stuff for Amiga. Hope so
:afro:

Depends on how you define "heavy" :)

Heavy .... stable ..... speed ....
It's all relative ... :)
 
When I install a program do I have to set the stack or is default setted by the system? (...stable.. reaching always stack limit ...  guru meditation ....) .. :(
