Hi all.

Many thanks for your bugs reports. I've a lot of returns and many many things to check and fix before releasing a new fix for xbench.

Does anyone have the same bug as attila06 ? Wich file system do you use ?

@Turran: Your video link is broken. Sadly i think that your issue is due to your custom rom :/

JimNeray · 17 July 2013, 17:41

For all of you that can't restart xbench after a reset. Can you tell me if this file exist:

Code:

xb:temp/i.???

If yes can you give me it's content ?

That new release rocks ... as always

Thanks JimNeray.

Good job Jim,

No more crash on my system

.

Just a little problem, when i quit X-bench i can't see my workbench screen, but a black screen and a window with the copper.
Maybe because i use Highgfx and cooper, but it worked fine with the 0.87b.

@subone & @attila06 : Thanx

Yes it's a known issue. It's because the option to show the whdload requester is not finished. It should not have been activated before completion. It is a mistake on my part that will be corrected in a future 0.9x release soon as it is finished to implement. You can simply switch off the "whdlreq" in the launcher setup to hack this issue.

X-bEnCh download server is down. It'll be back as soon as possible.

JimNeray · 02 September 2013, 22:44

i think he meant," its better,but would be better still if you talked people through the video as it played"

JimNeray · 03 September 2013, 21:59

Ok ! I'm sorry but i will not do that !

My english skill is too bad to talk by voice. And text is easyest to understand for non english people. But if somebody want to talk over this vid he can !

I'll do others videos soon after a future release. This one is outdated.

attila06 · 15 September 2013, 09:20

Thanks for this new release.
I ll try as soon as possible.

JimNeray · 16 September 2013, 13:05

It seem to have a bug that made Xbench (Xinit.exe) fail in some case.

I've made a special version of the xinit.exe file. You can download it here: http://www.jimneray.com/download/Xinit.exe

If Xbench init.exe fail for you, can you replace the xinit.exe file and try this one ? I've fixed two smalls mistake and added an output window that count all the steps before the black fader on the workbench screen so if this is not fixing your issue, this will let us know where is the last working step and where this is going wrong.

Waiting for your returns

mfilos · 16 September 2013, 16:05

The output in my case (which has a problem) is:
XStep Output = 8

After that it continues to stop responding with an error #8000000B)

JimNeray · 16 September 2013, 21:16

Does someone have tried this release without any problem ?
