Well, I found and tested the new Dreamshell 4.0 Beta with mixed results. I was able to get it to boot in the dreamcast. The boot screens were top notch and looked really great on the VGA adapter. The main screen appears with the blue ocean background/wallpaper, but then that was it. No keyboard commands were working, only the Dreamcast mouse was scrolling across the screen.

I hope they get this working.

In this version there is no application, so the desktop is empty. If you want to use the console, then press the F1 key on your keyboard and it will appear.

Do you have a link to this Dreamshell? I have never heard of it.

will the final version have an updated web browser? one that is at least compatible with modern email clients?

Browser is not yet expected. But there are API for the development modules and applications.

I want to thank SWAT for this distribution. I have had my fill with the 10,000 versions of BOR and other repetitious releases. This one is unique and needs to be supported by our community. If there is anything you need SWAT, let us know.

I made arework for this if you don't mind. I am not very good at it being I do not have the time to play with Adobe or other paint programs. I use Irfanview to "cut and paste" into Acoustica. Then I save them as a jpg.

Thank you for your support.

SWAT, welcome to the forums and thank you for the link.

Dobbs, nice covers.

I'm having fun exploring Dreamshell. I will look at your site also. Are there any release that have programs built in or am I missing how this works?

Sorry, my English is bad.
You mean, is there any application for a DreamShell now?
Or do you mean other programs?

Well, I did use Dreamshell 3.0 and saw this nice GUI screen. Please note the icons at the bottom including IE.
