What file are you talking about, specifically?  I have MiamiDX and use it regularly, just did a quick search on my SYS: partition and didn't find anything named "Miami-Mui-Gui".

If your install of it is mucked up you may just want to re-run the installer, in my experience Miami is probably the easiest of the Amiga TCP stacks to install & configure.

(I know, I'm opening myself all up to flames by saying that, lol)  :p

I think you may be running a different version from me.  Project --> About menu shows mine as version 1.0c (10.04.2000).  I believe that was the last version of MiamiDX before the author rage-quit the community.

In any case, I found a similar file - "MUI.MiamiDxGui" in SYS:Internet/MiamiDX/Libs/

(screenshot attached)

I put all of my Internet-related stuff into SYS:Internet, obviously your path may be different if you chose different install options.

BTW, I believe you can download the complete installer off Aminet.  And then just google for a key.  Miami is one of those programs that I would love to register, but the author...  Ugh.  :(

AmigaOS - noooo waaayyyyy you spend hours, days, week or even months... to make Internet going, just to see how Ibrowse 2.3 (2.4?!) works (I mean do not work ;) ).

Hey now, Ibrowse works great... for downloading updates to other programs from Aminet, lol.  :lol:

I would love to see continued development on both Miami and Ibrowse, and would be glad to put my money where my mouth is.  But the latter I'd be lucky to see in my lifetime, and the former... yeah, I won't hold my breath. :(

Sorry, but your message makes no sense. There's different forks but only one version for all systems, huh? When my machine gets through loading 3.9 I have 29 mgs free and netsurf will not load.

There's Chris's version and Artur's version (two different programmers both working to adapt the application for Amiga). Both have been covered extensively in other threads here (actually there's several other versions as well which are not relevant to this thread).

IMHO Chris's version is the better of the two on real Amiga's and is the only version I could ever get working, personally. Artur's is more suited to high-spec emulated systems (WinUAE). FWIW I could never get it working with less than 64MB, either.

Oh look, here's an old video I made. :p

Here is Netsurf 3.6 on Amiga 1200 / 040 / 32mb ram / AGA

It's no fun if you have to strip out every non-essential function of the operating system, can't run with more than 1 tab open, etc.  I guess you could say it runs, but does it run well?  That's not to knock Chris's version at all, I know he's done (and is doing) great work on it, but when folks are splitting hairs over whether it runs with 30MB free, and doesn't run with 29MB free...  LOL.  *sigh* :griping:

In any case, this thread was about Miami.  Anyone else have any questions about that?  :D
