Every now and then in the previous build I had anomalies with the TCP STACK ; it would display an error requester, but with this build it hasn't happened yet.

This is just and FYI that Kalamatee's work on USB has been merged to master branch and will be available starting from the next nightly build. USB2 is enabled as before. USB3 is still disabled by default for now. You should not see any regresion compared to previous nightly builds. If you already tested builds in the "Experimental USB3 support thread" then there is not need to test these changes.
@ntromans Thanks for the additional tests. I should mention that I hope to have access to a similar board soon to hopefully chase down the problem, so maybe it's best not to spend more time on it at your end for now.
Just tried my ASUS i7 motherboard again with all additional hardware removed - same result, reset back to BIOS after the output of the two lines of build information. I tried this with both boot from CD and USB.

LMB does not work to select icons on Wanderer (as mentioned) or select buttons in a Zune window. However, if you press the LMB with the pointer anywhere on the screen (not just inside the title-bar) and move the pointer the screen is dragged. LMB also works to select windows but you can't move them - the screen drags instead.
In the shell, the cursor keys do not work and neither do the letters n and m.

That means that OS thinks one of the AMIGA keys is held down. Quick press/release of this keys should fix it.[/quote]
Now you say it, that makes perfect sense. This machine only has one 'Windows' key; pressing that by itself does not help but pressing the special function key (as in the one to change screen brightness etc.) along with the Windows key does fix the problem - many thanks!
Re. the i7 desktop, noacpi has lready been tried with this build. With the 2025 releases I did try removing the PCI cards but that didn't help and I've turned off every 'special' feature in BIOS I can find, but I will give removing hardware another try with the new build.

Ok, I documented the regressions here: [url]https://github.com/deadwood2/AROS/issues/231[/url]
Now let's focus on the i7 machine. Firt please provide the exact model of the motherboard and CPU you are using.
Then, could you, using the 20260206 build do the following:
1) boot with 'noacpi'
2) if one fails, disconnect all hardware from the motherboard expect for boot medium, also make sure to disable all onboard hardware in BIOS
If 2 succeeds, try to enable hardware one by one to see when the failure happens.

As noted, these issues are not present in builds previous to February's.

P.S. on the other hand I've installed the latest build on my i5 work machine to give a thorough test and so far everything is fine.

[quote name=deadwood post=11138]@deadwood - So just for clarification:
With pc-x86_64-20260204-123515.tar.gz you have LMB but with pc-x86_64-20260206-013345.tar.gz you don't have it?
Have you tried using LMB in different scenarios? Like clicking on the icon on Wanderer desktop or starting some other program from shell like a prefs program and clicking on buttons?[/quote]
As ...20260206... came out so quickly after ...20260204... I didn't get a chance to test the latter; the regression is with respect to the release previous to these two.
I couldn't click icons on Wanderer; I'll try program buttons when starting from the shell this evening.

[quote name=deadwood post=11133]@deadwood - Hmm, that's quite strange. I don't see anything in the last ISO that could be causing this. Does it happen each time you boot?[/quote]
Yes, I've tried several times now. I found it does boot with the memory stick in a hub; with a mouse connected the pointer can be moved and RMB works but again no LMB function.
Found a regression on my AMD A4-9210 HP laptop It boots but the left mouse button function does not work either from the trackpad button or by tapping on the trackpad. Unfortunately I can't check with a mouse as it only has one functioning USB port under AROS which is being booted from (no optical drive either). Right mouse button function works fine. This problem was not present in previous releases.
Baterry -> Either I misread the commits or something isn't loading. Can you check with 'liblist' if you have power.hidd and acpibattery.hidd on the list?[/quote]
Sorry, I forgot to check this. Those HIDDs are not loaded.
I also tested the newer ISO on the same three machines as the previous one, plus one more. No regression.
