MorphOS 2.1 - Public Release
« on: September 06, 2008, 01:06:58 PM »
The MorphOS development team is proud to announce the public release of MorphOS 2.1, a free update for users of MorphOS 2.0. In addition to numerous bug fixes, MorphOS 2.1 includes several new features. Some of the most notable ones are the much anticipated sound driver for EFIKA mainboards, a 2D driver for XGI Volari V3XT graphics cards and a virtual CybergraphX monitor (for operating MorphOS without the use of a graphics card via VNCServer).

For an overview of the included changes and possible limitations of the forementioned features, please read our release notes.

A description of the hardware requirements and installation procedures can be found here. MorphOS 2.1 is available for download in our files section.

Ah, great news.  I didn't have time to play with my Efika last month and install MorphOS 2.0 (too busy with my kids, Minimig and Deneb card), but I'm glad to see that sound is now working.

Cheers!

Now that's marketing for you. A free upgrade to MorphOS x.1 to conicide with Hyperion's not free (quite costly, actually) upgrade to Amiga OS x.1. ;-)

If/when Amiga OS 5.x is released, I have a feeling MorphOS will jump to 5.x as well. Or something like that.

 if you dont like it, dont read it.  Better yet, I'll just delete your post if that makes you feel better.  Grow up.

I think A1260 must be forgetting where he is, this isn't that other new website founded by former AW.net unhappy campers.  This site encourages ALL forms of Amiga and Amiga-Like systems and OSes.

Edit: And just for the record, MorphOS does run on Classic Amiga hardware and does it for free (even if it is an older version), so PLEASE grow up.

Feel the the urgent need to say something? Next time count to ten and wait till it go away... It's not as if it's the first time a MorphOS related news is posted why bother now?

You are about 5 years too late for this kind of mentality. I guess you didn't get the memo, it was discovered that everyone looses in the end.
