AROS Status Update
« on: August 27, 2005, 06:28:15 AM »
There is a great news about AROS networking: Michal Shulz has added nForce chipsets network support to AROS, allowing lots of motherboards to be connected directly to a network under our operating system. And in order to simplify our lives, Neil Cafferkey has made ArosTCP compile in every nightly build. From now on, setting up an AROS network will be simplier.

You can see nForce driver running here.

Michal has also provided a new timer.device supporting UNIT_MICROHZ, a feature some developer has asked for long time, allowing some applications require to be ported.

Georg Steger has made some little changes to Intuition, and now it can change window decorations instantly - this also applies to screen decorations (the title bar). Another step towards GUI customization. Georg has also modified X11 hidd, so linux hosted version of AROS can now run fullscreen.

Keep them comnin'

I am so desperate to shake the shakles of XP and so don't need the hassle of Linux.

The last step for me is Open Office.  Then we have everything? almost.

That last hurdle is not that far away.  Well done to everyone involved.
