ArcaOS 5.0.8 is out!

<< < (3/7) > >>

Sean Casey:
My upgrade from 5.0.7 halted on the first reboot with an error my config.sys LIBPATH statement wasn't acceptable.  After removing my application directories, the upgrade continued.   

After the upgrade completed, booting produced errors with USBMOUSE.SYS and USBKBD.SYS not loading due to the USBHID driver not being found.  Both of these drivers had been added to the tail of my config.sys.  Since I am not using serial but rather USB mode for my mouse and keyboard, I have removed these from my config.sys. 

Everything now appears to be working fine.

Dave Yeo:
Hi Holger, the versions of Panorama and Doodles Screensaver in 5.0.8 support DPMS to turn off the screen

Eugene Tucker:
Well as far as the upgrade went to my AsRock B450 HDV turned out to be far less than perfect. Thunderbird wil not run, Oen Office will not run, Filestar and Unimaint wil not run Dooble wil not run. I am goig back to 5.07 for the time being. Back up back up back up.

Hi Dave,
thank you for the hint. I was brave enough to install panorama, and yes it works like you said. Still would like to be able to dim the screen using fn+ function keys like before. So have to consider what to do. Do you know whether the knew kernel is supported by older previous acpi versions?

Holger

Dave Yeo:
Hi Holger, IIRC, it will give a warning about unsupported kernel but work.

Hi Eugene, sounds like you have to install some stuff with ANPM, though TB should have all its prerequisites. Anything in popuplog.os2
