Mac 1.7b2 News

Welcome to the 1.7b2 bulletin!
So the latest news about the workarounds needed on Lion is that log in/log out is still broken, we have not yet started testing on all platforms.
No news from Apple about the underlying issues that make the workaround necessary.
Current ETA is... asap.

Nice. Thanks for the update. Note in the latest software update of Lion dp4, changes have been made to the login window. Don't know if that would be an issue, but it's worth checking out.

I am anxiously waiting to try this.

Will the b1 not work with AMD chipsets?

jbarrow · 06-20-2011, 06:09 PM

I also was hoping for an update this week. Carlo?

Yes sorry for the missing updates but we're in berserk mode, trying to resolve the last issues and give you a working beta asap.

User session transitions are now working ok, we found another issue in Mirror mode though. Overall it's not going badly for the kind of widespread changes we're forced to do because of Lion but there are many corner cases we did not test yet.

We plan to support all Intel Macs for Tiger/Leopard/Snow Leopard. And all the 64 bit ones for Lion.

I received a large update for Lion yesterday. Did this have any effect on your driver?

No, the last drop did not change much, the most useful to date was DP2 that resolved a Mission Control bug.
Mirror issue gone, planning final testing now, want to release the beta in June.
