AmigaOS 4: X11-environment AmiCygnix 1.2
Edgar Schwan has published an update of his X11-environment AmiCygnix. Both basic packages "AmiCygnix-Base" and "AmiCygnix-Tools" were updated to version 1.2.

Generally it is a bugfix release.

Changes in the reworked packages:
  • The system does not freeze any longer when quitting the X-Server. No crashes when quitting the clients
  • The computer could freeze if in a file-requester the existing assigns were listed. This bug was fixed
  • The preference tools "myX11Setup" and "myX11SetupLight" were reworked and a Hispanic catalogue added
  • The printing tool "lpr" did not open a status window in AmiCygnix version 1.1. Fixed. Additionally it is now possible to abort a printing process
  • The content of an USB mass storage could not be listed in a file-requester. Fixed
  • The web-browser NetSurf could not load local files - fixed
