The MorphOS development team would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year.


As the first release of 2009, we have prepared an update pack for the now out-of-date MorphOS 1.4.x which includes various minor improvements. Most notably, the archive includes several libraries that are required to stay compatible with new software releases, such as future Ambient versions and applications relying on PowerSDL, as many developers continue to migrate to MorphOS 2.x.

The Update Pack for MorphOS 1.4.x is available for download in our files section. To install the update, unpack the archive and copy all files to your system partition. Please take special note that this update is not intented to be installed on MorphOS 2.x or higher.
