Morph OS 2 . . .

[zylesea]

I run MorphOS 2.2 on my Efika and it works fine. With 2.1 I sometimes had some weird behaviour, but with 2.2 I haven't experienced any bad behaviours yet.
E.g. tonight I had the Efika powered up to listen to some music, watch a youtube vid, browse the net with AWeb and Sputnik, check my mails with SimpleMail and play WipeOut 2097 for a quarter of an hour and to lurk around on #morphos with WookieChat. Uptime w/o a reboot was >4 hrs, then I decided to switch off the device because I moved over to my bedroom (where my netbook is handier than the Efika and I had to run a serious word processor because I had work for a couple of hrs b4 going to sleep now).
On my Efika usb works quite reliable, but others seem to have less luck in that regard.

The Efika is a nice system to play around with, but still I prefer my Pegasos over Efika.

 Thanks for the links. I was really hoping my Core 2 Duo Mac would be able to play Morph OS 2 - 2.2. Aparently not. Now I have to find a Mac Mini, that's a G4 1.4Ghz model 8( There was something else I was wondering. HOW do you get the Morph OS if you don't buy the Efika board?

MorphOS will support *all* G4 Mac Mini models. Best choice of course is the silent upgrade G4 1.5 GHz model, because it comes with 64MB VRAM. All other G4 Mac Minis offer only 32 MB VRAM.
Once MorphOS for the Mac Mini will have been released it will be available for download from www.morphos-team.net.
Currently you can dl MorphOS 2.2 for Pegasos 1 &2 and Efika, plus MorphOS 1.4.5 for Amiga accelerator boards BlizzardPPC and CyberstormPPC.

How exactly do you view youtube?  I know a program exists, but cli based?  give details on how to do this please.
Thanks!!

I use Tubexx, it is a very convenient ARexx application. Check it out here: http://www.webalice.it/pgermano/tubexx/main.html

You need some goodies though like a working Arexx installation, wget, MPlayer, Mencoder. But it is a really nice programm, you're not only able to watch vids, but also to save end transcode them.
