Default Icaros Desktop 1.3.2 available for download

Version 1.3.2 of the popular AROS distribution has been released. This update introduces support for the newest and fastest GeForce cards currently available on the market (the models based on the "Fermi" architecture: GT, GTS/GTX 400 and 500), and turns on wi-fi communications on RTL8187B based USB wireless adapters. Drivers for SB128 and CMI8738 sound cards have been integrated in the distribution, enabling audio on VMware and on a wider range of physical computers. Amiga emulator Janus-UAE has been updated to the official 1.1 release and some applications have been updated to their latest release, or recomplied with newer libraries to gain speed and stability. For a complete list of enhancements over the older version, please visit the project website at:

Good, I've been working on a new tower to devote to the future of AROS.

Can't tell you how happy I am to be rid of that old Aspire One!

Brilliant! I am using it in my virtualbox at the moment. It has come a very far way since I last downloaded it. Very impressive.

Greetings,

Thanks for the update! I was wondering why only "doom" crashes under release v1.3.0 but not earlier versions on my Dell Optiplex GX200??? I hope this new version would fix that. Cheers!!!!

Regards,
GiZz72

I have been playing with Icaros with mixed results on my spare PC, 3D is not working, LAN is crashing some programs not working (Quake plays fine).
Anyway...which motherboard would be best for Icaros, with 3D, sound and LAN working? I got SB Live!, so sound is covered. The mb must take Athlon 2600, its a minimum investment.
Thanks
