Codename: Apocalypse

posted May 7, 2012 7:11 AM by nikos tomatsidis   [ updated May 7, 2012 7:12 AM ]

AspireOS v.1.9 Codename: Apocalypse will be a long time release. After v.1.9 there will be updates to v.1.91 - 1.92 - 1.93 and so on. Apocalypse will be supported for at least 6 months. Codename "Stardust" will also be supported. Up2date will take care of that.

I'm planing to have this version ready next month. A lot of cleanup and testing will go into this version.

Until now it's only been me doing AspireOS. The man behind the ARES computers and Broadway (aros distro.) will now help AspireOS to become even better. First out is his program "up2date". What this program does is to update your AspireOS installation only by clicking on the up2date icon (internet connection is required)

AspireOS update v.1.88 canceled, welcome version v.1.89

Dear AspireOS users.

update to v.1.88 came in a hurry. Very little testing where done. I belive v.1.89 will solve some of the problems.

I take a little break from AspireOS and will be back next month with AspireOS v.1.9 I hope. Have fun

AspireOS v.1.88 will be out very soon.

Little break

Been a lot to do with AspireOS lately. Time for a little break to just enjoy AspireOS and all the new progs.. and games that we have come for it :)
You can follow the progress of AROS here: www.aros-exec.org

Today I will repleace AspireOS v.1.8 iso with v.1.85 ISO. I feel this version should keep people happy for awhile. AspireOS v.1.9 will have codename "Apocalypse" Release date 1-2 months. Most likely this will only be an update. No new ISO with next version.

I said the update would be out friday, but guess what it is out today :D

updated IntelGMA driver. Old one had some problems with GLQuake and most likely some other games, progs..

First and foremost the new Odyssey version is ready for you. Here is a list of improvements:

- enabled JavaScript JIT engine -> from 300% to 1000% score increase in JavaScript benchmarks
- enabled IconDatabase (web site icons presentation)
- fixed transfer animation images and web site icons rendering
- using latest Cairo 1.12.0 for rendering
- enabled SVG image processing filters

Already this friday there will be a small update.

More compatible IntelGMA driver and another big supprise you will like ;)

AspireOS v.1.8 codename "Stardust" is out

posted Apr 9, 2012 5:42 AM by nikos tomatsidis

I'm happy to release codename "stardust" with the new theme and wallpapers from the one and only Shufflepuck. Davy released Audio Evolution for AspireOS as freeware too. This is a very nice hd-recording editing program. Unarc is new part of the system. This is a unarchiver that is easy to use.
Other stuff are most updated system files.
