Let's have a look at AROS One 2.6

This evening I want to have a look at the new version of AROS One together you. As a long time cheerer for AROS and open source, but not really a user of AROS, it was about time I gave this AmigaOS Remake/Clone another try.

Amazing that Aros is still in development. Warms my heart. It looks so familiar, that I feel right at home. Enjoy

Wow, an AROS One video with speech. Thank you! I was beginning to think that Amiga fans had taken a vow of silence :-)

I've been following this OS for many years. Thank you for an amazing video.

Thanks for this video! AROS is the future of Amiga :)

Proteque - Do you have mind reading abilities ?!?!?!

I was just going to take another look at AROS, then your video popped up on my
feed.

I've had a couple of fairly brief interactions with AROS, and I've liked what I have
seen so-far, (running it in Virtual Box, on my Linux PC).

I enjoy setting up and configuring Amiga's / Amiga/Workbench environments almost as
much as using Amiga games and productivity software.
Always trying to get a "Perfect" set-up.

Based upon what you (and others have shown) this seems like a very good way to use
an Amiga (both Classic and NG Amiga's and OS's).

Thanks for another great video

Take it easy.

Looks like a better experience than the AGSMini you bought. The furry theme is kinda weird but everything else looked alright.

Swapping to a total Fedora Gnome setup soon with full fake computers planned as well (Amiberry, ZX Spectrum etc)

For the AROS One x86(32bit) will there be an AROS one x64 (64 bit)? Have they increase hardware compatibility? Like I have ab AMD Radeon 7800xt graphics card will it work with it? I remember on AmigaOS 3.0 they had RTG (Retargetable Graphics). Be kind of cool if AmigaOS could become like Linux; have a modernize browser, even able to run STEAM to use proton to play Windows games. I migrated from Win11 to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS; sort of like Amiga compared to Windows. Thanks for letting us know about it, sometimes curious about the Amiga scene.

will defo be giving AROS One 2.6 a try out very soon-ish, I have both the dvd and usb versions downloading as I type this

[BenVaserlan]

Can it work with YouTube? Can it open jxl files? can it video edit? I'd like a port of Firefox, Shotcut, Libre Office, and Chromium.

If you do any programming, you'll likely hit memory problems requiring a reboot as there's no memory protection afair.

[NZRanger]

As an old Atari user AROS interests me. Are there any DISCORD channels for it? IRC is pretty much dead now,

[Leo_Aqua]

he is the beer version of network chuck

[XMaximvsPayneX]

wouldnt it be time to switch from abiv0 to abiv1? all the older apps have to be recompiled sooner or later anyway. cheers

[ChrisGripeos]

Is that a Pentium2/Celeron motherboard on your top shelf?

[dereknguyen]

How do I run WHDLoad programs, games?

[ferrellsl]

I really don't see the point of AROS One, not to be confused with AROS x86 or AROS 68K. AROS One is running a Linux kernel under the hood (AKA Linux hosted) with an Amiga-like API running on top so why not just run Linux with UAE if there's some classic Amiga app that you just can't live without? Linux has many more apps which offer better features than anything that could be ported from OS3/OS4 to AROS One.
