[ Show youtube player ]
(how do you embed the video into the forum,no option for it when creating the post)

It was made using Linux Mint as its base,anything that works on that,will work on OS32.So its based on Linux Mint.

If you are experiencing any problems with Commodore OS 32-bit please post here or on the new website.

Note: Most of Ubuntu programs found online will work with Commodore OS 32-bit.

This is a Live DVD Version so you can just use it from the DVD and you don't have to install it,it has a user that comes with it called "Live" so if you install it the user will be installed too,Password is live123.You can change the name of the user at anytime once you have installed COS32.Goto System --> Administration --> Users and Groups.

I hope you enjoy Commodore OS 32bit.

I'm interested. I've got a problem with my Bios and hardware emulation in 64 bits, but a 32 version would run I think. If there is any made I would appreciate a PM about this matter.

sneeker · 23 February 2012, 00:31

On the spot the differance front, 32 bit is @ 10%, 64 bit is @62%.

Looking at the screenshots though, it just looks like linux, nothing really special about it really.

There isn't a 32bit version,I am making one using Debian and adding theme,shortcuts and emulators.
Can't get compiz to work proberly its my graphics card(not so worried about it if don't thats ok)..

Does anyone know how to put this on a dvd image once I have finished it,If I can't put it on a DVD image I will have to do some sort of pack for Debian..??

Any help anyone can give is welcome and any ideas of what you want in it..

Well it is Linux and the 64bit is out at the moment and its a beta but it don't work on my IBM Net Vista P4 cos its 32 bit so I decided to make of for it..

_ThEcRoW · 27 February 2012, 00:43

Yeah, im in for a 32 bit version of cos for one of my netbooks.

spannernick · 02 March 2012, 13:11

Ok..I have made a version of it but I was thinking of changing the name so its not connected to commodore usa os vision and start posting on the forum about it when its nothing to do with them..

I was thinking of calling it Commodore Linux cos that's what it is...And making the theme more like The Amiga OS..What you think..?

spannernick · 02 March 2012, 14:48

I need beta testers for the OS so if you like to test it post here to let me know and I pm you the link to it,Let me know what you think of it..cos it 32 bit it will work on a 64bit too..

_ThEcRoW · 02 March 2012, 15:32

Yeah mate, i would be trying it on my netbook for sure. I have tried countless times with aros, but is impossible at the moment, so i think that a linux distro amigaized would be perfect.
I don't have much time these days, but for sure i will be trying it in a moment of relief.

I forgot to ask what gui will it be using, as a heavy resource one like gnome or kde would maybe be too much for a netbook.*Could be used a lighter X server as xfce?. That would be more snappier and quick, and also feel more amigaish in faster systems.

magnetic · 03 March 2012, 00:37

I'd love a 32bit version too but dont like the idea of making it "amiga like" keep it c64 themed.. we have enough amiga like stuff.. uae, amiga forver, aros, etc etc

spannernick · 03 March 2012, 01:43

OK I will...I am moding around with it anyway so it will have the cos theme and amiga to if you want a change..

If you PM me I send you the link to it if you want it Magnetic..Its the first version 1.2 so the Amiga theme isn't in there yet,I used Ubuntu as a the base but i am trying out Linux Mint at the mo to see which is best..

spannernick · 10 March 2012, 00:48

You will be able to download COSV 32 bit on CBM Borg,Go there for more info..

Why? You're doing good being on track with traditional CommodoreUSA way of "ripping off" already!

spannernick · 13 March 2012, 14:48

ok..

CritAnime · 13 March 2012, 16:04

To be fair Bamiga is right. Your have already leeched all the graphics from COS and imported them into another distro. You have already done most of teh work that Leo has already done. In half the time lol.

spannernick · 13 March 2012, 16:38

Yeah true..lol..

The only reason I did it so it worked on my other pc that's 32bit and I like the way it looks so I leave it the way it is,don't look like a lot of people is interested in this anyway.

I thought I share it for all those people who don't have 64bit..

Oh and BTW I am using the same distro Linux Mint 10 Julia..

I see you two have downloaded and install COS then..

magnetic · 14 March 2012, 09:04

Hey spanner

Did you do the Mint version yet? I will install it on my Piv @3ghz box for testing when you do!
