zerocom Hello guys ...
tekmage We have the author of Scalos with us now
UGN-Speak Now listen to Stefan Sommerfeld!
tekmage queue is platon42, Manowar2
UGN-Speak Zerocom, its your time now.
tekmage queue is planton42, manowar2, mad-alex, joule
platon42 zerocom: I wonder why developers still don't use enforcer/mungwall (i assume you don't - no offence if i'm wrong) - i'd really like to register scalos but at the current amount of enforcerhits i just can't do it. otherwise, it's a really great product. just fix the bugs and i'll buy it. ga (tekmage: it's platon, not planton or plankton!)
zerocom I havn't seen any enforcerhits. Just send it to me and I will remove them
zerocom GA
Manowar2 zerocom:is it true that Scalos V2.0 will support PPC ? If so which kernel ?..are u a OS3.5 developer ?GA
tekmage If you have a question about Scalos please /msg tekmage with a "?", thank you
zerocom Yes, I've planned it. Probably I'll support the H&P 68k Emu and there will be no 68k + PPC version only native ones
zerocom GA
tekmage queue is joule, newlook
mad-alex Do you think it is worth adding to or replacing the OS on the NG? Will ScalOs be wound up? Will you help make the NG? (GA)
zerocom Scalos is not and will never be a OS replacement it more like a DOS interface ... and I'm not in the OS 3.5 team ;)
zerocom GA
tekmage queue is joule, newlook, platon42
jOule What do you think about the future of ScalOS; what about the threats, opus magellan 2 and the new amiga os 3.5? How will you ensure the survival and make it stand the competition? GA
zerocom The next version V2 will be completely new. It will not only be a Workbench replacement. It's planned to make it look like what ever you want. Win95 or Dopus or old WB ...
zerocom GA
aTmosh newlook GA
newlook After sending enforcer logs to you and informing you that segtracker etc IS running and IS in the proper order why have you not yet corrected the problems and/or replied to such bug reports? I for one have sent you logs with your responses being that I
newlook am running something incorrectly and this is not the case. I am a developer and do know how to use these tools. GA
newlook heh
tekmage queue is platon42, Manowar2
zerocom If you sent me hits with SegTracker I would remove it, but without these infos I cannot do anything
zerocom GA
platon42 Haage&Partner just told us (well, this is my interpretation), that there will be no 68k emulation as 'it doesn't make any sense on current ppc boards'. don't you think a 68k emulation would be essential, nevertheless if there's scalosppc or not? is ppc development (in your opinion) possible at the current warpup/ppc l
platon42 ibrary situation? as what just newlook said, would this happen to me aswell (and i DO run segtracker)? :) ga.
newlook (as do I)
tekmage queue is manowar2, jOule
zerocom The 68k emu will give the developers new possiblities to improve there programs.
zerocom No cache problems and no big context-change overhead.
zerocom Scalos wouldn't make much sence the the current PPC system. It doesn't have many time consuming routines.
zerocom GA
Manowar2 zerocom:do u plan new versions of MCP and SysSpeed ?GA
tekmage queue is jOule
zerocom Michael is working on MCP V2 (a complete rewrite). There are no planings about a new SysSpeed
zerocom GA
jOule You said that ScalOS will be able to look like win95, opus or whatever. Yes, the GUI is important, but if you want to ensure the survival the most important is the functionality, right? Can you give us example of features that will be added concerning this matter... GA
tekmage queue is platon42
atmosh want to close it for the next guy?
tekmage queue is -
tekmage queue is metalgear
zerocom I tried verious system in the last months to look for new cool features. Scalos will not be a program like it right now.
zerocom I will be an interface to does. Which means Scalos V2 will be a library just like MUI.
tekmage queue is metalgear
atmosh platon lost his question
zerocom It will be possible to use it and make an interface you want. Of course there will be programs in the package to run it like the current version,
zerocom but the missing API in the current release is fixed. I plan to make a small DOpus4 like tool, because many people like it.
zerocom Of course there will be network and multiuser support and it will comunicate with other tools.
zerocom Many Vapor tools will be supported for drag and drop and more ...
zerocom GA
tekmage last question jOule
tekmage queue is closed
MetalGear Will ScalOS 2 be a MUI alike? Drag&Drop, context menus.... 2) when will be available??
MetalGear ga
zerocom Yes, alike, but not a MUI replacement. There will be not a full set of gadgets, but most part are inpirred by MUI. Instead of MUI it will have full multitasking.
UGN-Speak Hi Stefan ! Sometimes I do discover corrupt Icons when scrolling in windows. I am using Scalos 1.1 reg. on an A4000 w/CV3d and P96/16 bit. Using CGX this does not occur. GA
zerocom I could give a release date yet. I only can say not these year. Early next year will be the first beta versions for developers.
zerocom GA
zerocom UGN-Speak: Any examples to test it? I havn't these problems.
jOule The features sounds very interesting and my first reaction is thinking about the register fee.. :) consider it a question. GA
zerocom If anyone has more questions join the Scalos mailinglist (infos on www.aliendesign.net) or mail me.
UGN-Speak zerocom: Take a Harddisk- or Drawer-window and scroll through the Icons with the scrollbars.
zerocom UGN-Speak: newest P96 version ?
UGN-Speak zerocom: Scrolling back and forward again, the icons are again O.K.
tekmage UGN-speak best send some email
UGN-Speak zerocom: yepp ! 1.41a
tekmage Thank you zerocom for joining us here on IRC!
zerocom UGN-Speak: yes ... email me please
UGN-Speak tek: You're right. Let Anja take over !
