[comp.sys.amiga] 2.0 Weirdness - WBPattern

ms0p+@andrew.cmu.edu (Michael Gordon Shapiro) (09/18/90)

For some reason, WBPattern doesn't seem to work on my A3000.  I can
select patterns, but the "test" gadget doesn't do anything, and even
when I save the pattern and reboot, the windows are the default grey. 
It's not a critical matter, but annoying.  Has anyone else had this
problem?

Secondly, does anyone have the FKey Commodity?  All pictures in the
manual aside, my system software was notably lacking this item, both on
hard drive and floppy.

Yes - was this/will this be included in 2.01/final 2.0?
And is there any date for availablilty of the release 2.0 and HDBackup?
BRU is ok, but cli-based, so...

Have you modified your startup-sequence at all?  Please make sure that
ENV: is still assigned to RAM:Env.

FKey is not part of the 2.00 and 2.01 releases.
