[RELEASE] Xplora 1.8 -- Update

After a long time I'm here to release a new version of Xplora,
here is some notes and the download link.
------------
XploRa 1.8
------------

Author: ne0h
Release date: 02/01/2009
Compatibility: 4.01 M33 and highter

-------------------------------------
--------------Note-------------------
-------------------------------------

In this release I've improved all the
old things and the base engine.
The Text Editor is not now completed
and will be probably modified in the
next release.
The new Homebrew Sorter works fine, but
have two problems.
There's a bug in one function that
I use to open ISO\CSO files, it's
a M33 function, so I cannot fix it.
In the last CF ( 5.00 M33-4) one of
these problems was fixed up,
anyway for the unpatched cfw I've
added an alternative patch to make
Homebrew Sorter working...
The second problem doesn't unmount
the last ISO\CSO mounted, so when
you exit the Homebrew Sorterm, you
can find in the UMD Disc device a ISO\CSO,
and not the real UMD one.

Everything is great, but I liked the old interface better, it's more welcoming. Nice job!

Hey, this is great. Awesome job. Stuff like this makes me feel great that i'm apart of the HB community. I hope its not to early or late to suggest a feature. Is it possible to update the web browser's RAM access? That would kill the "Not enough memory" message. (I'm a trainee when it comes to creating HB. So, please, if the need arises, let me know if you ever need help or extensive testing done.)

Great. Thanks again. By the way, isn't DAX a bit outdated? I mean, most HB is 3.XX kernal and higher. And CSO is naturally smaller and easier to use anyways.

Oh, yes, I've added DAX because I've got some problems with the CSO compressor, "fixed" in the next release.

When I try to start it, it just gives me a black screen, and I need to hold the power button to turn off my PSP.
Another person I know had the same problem.

Running 5.00 M33-4.
Help pl0x?

Not using CXMB, deleted all plugins, same problem.
I've already heard 2 other people had this problem as well.

Do you have any idea what the problem is?

Have you tried redownloading? Could be a corrupt file. Also, make sure your homebrew (HB) kernel is at 5.XX. I belive Xplora runs on that kernel alone.
