Title: Yet Another Voyager Update (68k)
Post by: Targhan on December 27, 2002, 08:34:34 PM

Voyager 3.3.126 is now available for 68k users.  According to Vapor's
Zapek (from Voyager M/L about the previous 68k release), "The compiler
generated buggy code with optimizations enabled."  

See: http://v3.vapor.com

I just tried it and it crashed my machine.

Just kidding, I haven't tried it yet.

i've been surfing around about an hour, setting the
stack to 1000000 and it seems to accept most :)

I came to an wallpaper site with few movies featured
and when I was checking out James Bond wallpapers
I clicked on an image and a window popped up
filling itself with frames...apart from that
this version is working fine..

I've been thrashing the new V3.3.126 for the last 15 minutes now and
it still hasn't died :)  Following a few other suggestions, I've also
increased stack size to 800k
The previous release (125) would have crashed a dozen times by now, so
a definite improvement. Zapek must have herd my whining and decided to
do something about it.

Congrats to the V3 guys!

You're right, and I see it no longer works under V 3.3.122 either.
I know for a fact it USED to, so Yahoo have probably changed something
again.

I tried a number of times to log in, but it said "welcome guest", so I
tried AWeb, which worked.  Tried V again and it logged in correctly.

Not sure if it's V not interpreting the HTML correctly, or if it's
Yahoo not complying to HTML standards.
Don't be too quick to critisise, just because Yahoo doesn't work under
Voyager, it might not necessarily be a fault of Voyager.

On a good note, we can finally see all of the smilies from the
Amiga.org pop up window :-)

I was about to say that I am finding it more stable
than 3.3.125, but by pure chance the Comments link
for this post crashed my machine!  Second time
lucky, tho'.
