A question mostly for Dave Haynie regarding SetCPU v1.5 although it and the
response should be of general interest to the net. If you attempt to send a
response my mail, good luck. The auto addresses in the header differs from
my SA's addresses which I have in my .signature. We don't know why yet.
Could you (or somebody) be the keeper of the bugs/patches, on the net. This
would be a running list of known bugs in Amiga supplied software and the
names of known patch programs that will fix them. You don't have to worry
about scaring off potential buyers because we are all committed Amiga lovers
to be on this net :-). We understand bugs can exist. Compared to the junk
published as software today, the Amiga is basically bug-free. Good job
Amiga engineers.
In particular, I need to know what the bug patches in SetCPU v1.5 are, so
that I know what other patch programs I can throw away. Did you know that
with SetCPU patches installed, then PatchWB from the ARexx disk returns with
an error value of 10. (But only if ran from the startup-sequence along with
SetCPU.)
While you're at it, maybe you or a co-worker can tell me how to get a hold of
technical update sheets to get my Amiga B2000 v4.4, A20902A, A2058, or
A2620 to their current level. This hardware/ASIC designer long ago lost its
warranty by playing with his machine.
Is anybody able to talk and listen to IBM hardware designers the way
we can with Dave, Randall, Carolyn, or Paul. The ultimate in
customer support. Only Amiga makes it possible.
