VirtualAcorn are pleased to announce that upgrades for all
versions of VirtualRPC are now available from the
downloads section of the VirtualAcorn website.
Upgrades for VirtualRPC-SE and VirtualRPC-Adjust
replace the existing single tasking
HostFS::HardDisc4.$.Printing.ShowPrinters
file with a multi-tasking version, which makes it much
easier to set up a RISC OS printer definition file.
These upgrades also include an updated HostFS
extensions file which allows RISC OS to open PDF
files with a .PDF extension. In addition .zip files are
now correctly mapped so that they will be opened
by SparkPlug.
The upgrades for VirtualRPC-SA and VirtualRPC-AdjustSA
also include the multi-tasking ShowPrinters file as well
as a new version of HostFS2. This new HostFS2 is
recommended for all users and resolves an intermittent
problem on multi-core processors and on some single
core processors. The symptoms reported by some
users include a failure on running the RISC OS Boot
sequence as well as occasional random "Data Abort"
errors. Users who have not experienced these problems
should still download and install this upgrade. All copies
of VirtualRPC-SA and VirtualRPC-AdjustSA manufactured
after today's date will include the new HostFS2 automatically.
