AROS extends screen dragging to everyone
« on: May 01, 2011, 09:11:41 PM »
AROS has recently extended the ability to drag screens (à la classic Amiga) to virtually all PC graphic cards, improving the common VESA driver and enabling dragging at every VESA resolution. A video showing the new feature has been published on the Icaros Desktop website.

This is great, now people can try out the screen dragging on their very first boot of a Live CD on any system with an unsupported video card.

Can you give an ETA for the next version of Icaros Desktop?

I expect things might slow down a bit as AROS x86 transitions from ABI V0 to ABI v1 :)
