#3825 — ClockFixer stops working today

I wonder how many people are still refusing to reflash their Iyonix ROMs
to the latest version of RISC OS 5, and are about to post baffled
questions here...?

I wonder if there are people waiting for an announcement regarding
5.18. There hasn't been any on CSAA or the Iyonix forum.

Postings on the ROOL forum suggest5 it is very imminent. In fact,
5.18 has already been released for the ARMini - I've had it for a
week or so. Just checking the ROOL ROM download page, 5.18 (stable)
flash version for Iyonix is there, as is 5.18 softload, 5.18 for
Beagle, and 5.19 development for both Beagle and Iyonix.

Does nobody read the news page at ROOL's site? That's where you go to
download RISC OS, after all. Anyway, I've copied our announcement to csaa so
hopefully everyone who's not keeping up at the back will see it. :)

Ta,

Yes, but only when I see something somewhere else (e.g. Usenet, Twitter)
telling me to. I don't have time to visit every web site on earth every
day on the offchance it MAY have something interesting to me!!!

Unfortunately, I may not be alone in finding ROOL's web site a little
impenetrable - particularly the forums - where I seem to have to wade
through lots of fat to find the meat, as threading seems vague. Therefore
I tend not to because it takes so much time. As it gets bigger, it gets
no better. 

So no, I don't visit ROOL's site as often as I perhaps should, instead
relying on 'push' notifications. I am sure developers with their fingers
in the pie (or pi) are there all the time and find it warm and cuddly,
but users? No. I think we only visit when we're 'told' to.

I was expecting questions from people on Jan 1 this year complaining
that their clock had gone back to 2010. Rather surprised not to see
any!

I keep mine at 1972.

Easily fooled, young at heart.

I find a picture in the attic helps :-)

I assume, that like me you have a beagleboard without optional battery and
have to reset the clock from 1972 each time at !Boot either with !NetTime
or !FreeTime.

That's correct (NetTime) though my response wasn't related. Date picked at
random from era <= young.
