It may be possible to port it to a linux version...

Are you using a download accelerator or browsing with javascript disabled, cos it's a link to a rapidshare page that forces you to wait 30s before you can grab the file :pissed:

Anyway, bad news for me at least, it appears to be Tiger only (I'm running 10.3.9)..just bombs out straight away , the only clue being an entry in the crash.log shows it fails to find quartz.framework.

Hum,
Im sure that some mac fiend will recompile it, before very long.
(Much to the annoyance of the google people who only officially produce a windows version)

OK I found another link with a smaller Zip download and I got it working!  Works great on my iMac G5 1.8GHz 2GB with Tiger.  :)

Off Topic, but since all you Mac users are here .....

My Powerbook display died a couple months ago.  I asked for help and was advised to replace the inverter board, which I did and it worked for about a week before the same problem coming back.  I have checked and found out that the S-Video out is still working and am about to check tonight to see if the DVI w/DVI to VGA adapter will display too.

Any ideas of what could be killing the inverter board, or do you think I just got a bad one that only worked for a week and should try to return it?  It may be too late already, but I will check.

Thanks
How are you helping the Amiga community? :)

@amigadave

Hum,
Yeah, i remember...

Yeah, it's possible that you got a refurbished board (from mac) and you just got a bad one.

@TjLaZer
You`re not going to post  that link....?

BTW here is a link to a forum to get some .kml files
(a tip is to first increase your cache size to 400Mb or larger)
