`21.Jun.2012` Edgar Schwan (ANF)	AmigaOS 4: X11-environment AmiCygnix 1.1 With Edgar Schwan's X11-environment AmiCygnix (screenshots: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) it is possible to launch several Unix applications under AmigaOS. Most important changes in version 1.1: Support of programs compiled for GTK+ 2.24 and GTK+ 3.x. A new (experimental) display driver is included, which opens a X11 display in a workbench window. The X server and the display drivers were revised. The server can now be launched several times without problems. All new programs with an own directory in the AmiCygnix "Software" directory will have two start scripts: One for opening the application on the desktop (just like before) and a script, which opens the program in an own display. With a special version of the settings editor "myX11Setup" you can select the display driver and the window manager for every application, which is launched with the new start script. A new icon theme in AmgaOS 4.1 style is included. The workbench icons are now all in AmigaOS 4.1 style. Version 1.0 of AmiCygnix could not be installed on partitions formatted with the filesystem JXFS. This is now solved. Most of the programs and libraries used in this package were replaced by current versions. AmiCygnix 1.1 can be copied over an existing installation of a previous version. The distribution consists of two parts: The base archive AmiCygnix-Base and the tool collection AmiCygnix-Tools. (cg) (Translation: dr) [News message: 21.
