Amiga webbrowser iBrowse 2.5.9 Released

I

Browse 2.5.9 + AmiSSL 5.12 Released

IBrowse 2.5.9 is now available for download (OS4 users may use AmiUpdate instead), which is the ninth free update for registered owners of IBrowse 2.5. IBrowse 2.1-2.4 and 1.x owners may upgrade to IBrowse 2.5.9 by registering at discounted rates. Please note: IBrowse 2.5.9 requires AmiSSL 5.12, also released today, so you are advised to download it before updating IBrowse, otherwise you will be left without HTTPS access.

Unfortunately, the disk cache stopped functioning correctly in IBrowse 2.5.7, so this update has been mainly made to address this issue. We would recommend using both the disk cache flush, then the clean up function via the menus, after installing IBrowse 2.5.9, to restore your disk cache to a working state. You may also need to manually delete any remaining “tree” directories in your disk cache directory. Full list of changes:

  • Fixed the disk cache, which became broken in 25.109
  • Now requires AmiSSL 5.12 for secure connections
  • Added workaround for AmigaOS 4.x Installer versions 53.1-53.7 which were unfortunately broken, with 53.2 being on the 4.1FE CD-ROM
  • Copyright year bumped to 2023

 A-eon announced the A1222, designed to be a low-cost system based on the P1022 1.2Ghz CPU in a Micro ITX design. Development of the board began in late 2015 however due to the CPU design not featuring FPU instruction set AmigaOS4.1 would require an FPU emulator baked into the OS for it to run on the system.

Walkero`s script for Browservice and Odyssey

Browservice and Odyssey

You probably are aware that the browser experience for AmigaOS 4 is not that good. The reason is that there is no up-to-date browser available that supports the latest features of website technologies. So there is a need to find different solutions that help solve those issues.

An online application that helps somehow to bring modern websites to older browsers is the Browservice. This requires a separate system in your network that is used to load the websites, convert them to images and feed them into the old browser as a series of images.

If you would like to test it and use it then I would recommend having a look at Skateman’s tutorial video at the head of this article. He explains how to install and use it from AmigaOS 4 with Odyssey. His video is quite useful doing a great job helping other users.
