Problem is - wasnt the actual cable that snapped.. as we found out :-)

Was actually a little teeny plastic clip hinge thing that hook's onto the back of the clutch cable.

Basicaly had to stop the car, put it into 1st gear and started it up, hopping down the road. Pull it out of gear, then rev it up to about 5000 rpm, let the rev's drop slowly and gently ease it into gear. Basically you need to get the engine speed equal to the speed of the clutch and it kinda, goes into gear. Not good for the car tho, hence why i gave up and went home.

Yeah - apparently a common problem with it. Hopefully the replacement cable will have a Metal clip on it not a plastic one.

You would think the people that design this sorta thing take it into concideration that the car is designed to be driven for more that 2 years...

ImageFX was running and works properly (one of the photos on SEAL's website proves this)


This is news that I wanted to here. It would be great if someone can burn test IFX on OS4. ie push it really hard. I'd imagine it would work the 68k emulation to the limit, a good acid test.

Does anyone know who the owner of that particular AmigaOne is? Details are required: what version of IFX is it? Does (s)he have the PPC modules installed. etc

It was my AmigaOne (XE-G4@800MHz). ImageFX version 4.5 was running without PPC modules (these need PowerUP IIRC so they won't run on OS 4 ATM).

I've only had my A1 a couple of weeks so I don't have much experience but IFX seems to run reliably. If you look closely at the image of the screenshot on our site you'll notice that the file loaded (a Total Amiga cover) is a big layered image (about 25Mb all told) and that worked without problems.

@cecilia

I've already contacted Kermit and hope to be able to help him out.

Everything happens in three's:

1) your A1200 probs
2) your car probs
3) your phone probs

Plain sailing from here on then :-D

cool!  8-)

don't forget my "famous" articles and HowTo's:

PNG in IFX

Gif saving in IFX

KeyFrame Manager in IFX

the last 2 will link to my site and that's where you can access my old (but still useful) articles that were published by New NewTekniques mag.  :-P
