AROS-Distribution VmwAROS 1.0
VmwAROS is an AROS-distribution (screenshot) which includes some preinstalled applications like FryingPan or SimpleMail. The distribution was completed by some batch scripts (PoorPDF, AmiBridge, PoorARC) which are supposed to balance out the lack of applications under AROS by a simple UAE-integration or on-the-fly format-conversions.
Changes in detail:
- New, customized system files
- Shutdown Wanderer funcion on supported hardware
- Widescreen graphic modes on selected cards
- Added Ken Lester's iconset
- Added sound in Quake
- Complete development chain with GCC 4.2.2, Python, ecc
- VmwAROS can now compile AROS
- Added new games
- Updated many programs
- Added 68K application support with AmiBridge
- Added automatic extractor for multiple archive files (PoorARC)
- Added PDF document support (PoorPDF)
- Added first-run configuration script
- Installing VmwAROS won't leave volumes without icons anymore
- Fixed typing issue with SimpleMail
- Added many desktop wallpapers from M. De Angelis (JohnSmith)
- Updated VmwUpdate and SwitchMuiMaster
- Added GhostScript
- Fixed many file associations
- Corrected paths and ASSIGNs
- Added VmwAROS services manager in Prefs
- Improved PDF user/reviewer guide

VmwAros is available as a version for virtual drives (VMWare, or after conversion QEmu) and as a so called live!-version for the native installation.
