Patch-01 for Icaros 1.3 addresses speed, updater and 3D

[paolone]

Our great friend Deadwood has released two amazing ports for AROS: Cube and AssaultCube. They need a graphic card supported by Galliumand and a updated mesa.library, included in a freshly released patch for Icaros Desktop 1.3:

- Patch 01 on the Icaros website

This patch won't let you play games only. It addressess also some other annoying bugs found after 1.3 release: OWB and general speed issues, and problems updating the kernel with LiveUpdater. Since it updates LUPD, you won't use it to install this patch. You will need to extract the files into a path, enter the UPDATE drawer, and launch the INSTALL script double-clicking on its icon. It will do the rest for you. Patch 01 also introduces two new emulators (zsnes and kegs), and updates some programs (AviBuild, nasm and fuse) to their latest versions. In the end, you'll get a new kernel, mesa, arosc and some other libraries updated, the new wave datatype and all drivers updated to latest builds.

That's really strange. It didn't happen on any of the PC (physical and  virtual) I use for testing. You should try booting from the Icaros CD  and deleting all GZ files in the boot drawer of your hard drive, and  then replacing them. I've noticed that sometimes wanderer doesn't  actually overwrite files when you drag and drop them to a crowded  destination.

Don't use files from the latest nightly, they can introduce a bug.

If  you wish to roll back to your original Icaros 1.3 installation, don't  forget to copy the whole Libs and Devs drawers as well. The best way to  do this is using the copy command from the shell

copy "Aros live CD:Libs" TO aros:Libs ALL FOOVR NOPRO
copy "Aros live CD:Devs" TO aros:Devs ALL FOOVR NOPRO
