ODW-Review des britischen Print-Magazins "Linux User & Developer" Das britische Print-Magazin Linux User & Developer hat einen Review zu Genesis Pegasos II-basierter Open Desktop Workstation (ODW) veröffentlicht. Bei der ODW handle es sich demnach um eine leistungsstarke, aber dennoch preiswerte PowerPC-Workstation, die direkt auf den Linux-Markt abzielt. Für das Gerät spräche, dass es sich um einen exzellenten und gut ausgestatteten Rechner zu einem guten Preis handle. Einziger, jedoch nicht produktspezifischer Negativpunkt sei das generelle Hinterherhinken der PowerPC-Fassung von Linux gegenüber der x86-Version in puncto Popularität. Entsprechend erhielt die ODW eine Wertung von 5/5 Punkten. Download: ODW-Review.pdf (3,7 MB) (snx) [Meldung: 01.

My favorite this month has to be the Mindspace drawing program, honestly released as "vaguely usefull". Now there's a designation you aren't going to see from Micro$oft although it would be appropriate in many cases. It's not an Amiga only item, but the mid-air display announced this month by the folks at IO2technology has to be about the coolest thing to come along in quite a while, and is probably the current ultimate geek toy. For a number of days after the anouncement you simply couldn't get into their website for the traffic. You can read about it below, but be sure to check out the website for yourselves and take a look at the videos. Reading between the lines, it seems they may only have prototypes actually built so far, but the product seems real enough. Wonder how well - or if - it will work with an A1? As soon as someone knows, please tell us! We hope you enjoy this issue.

Some Heliodisplay models are interactive allowing a finger or hand to move images around in the air as if one were grabbing a tangible object. The Heliodisplay requires a power outlet, and a computer, TV, DVD or alternate video source. The current version of the Heliodisplay projects a 22" to 42" (depending on model) diagonal image that floats above the device. The Heliodisplay system is backward compatible and accepts most 2D video sources (PC,TV, DVD, HDTV, Video game consoles). For connection to a computer, the Heliodisplay uses a standard monitor VGA connection; for TV or DVD viewing, it connects using a standard RGB video cable. Heliodisplay images are easily viewed in an office environment. Like any computer monitor or TV, images appear brighter the lower the ambient light. Also, just like viewing any computer monitor or TV, viewing a Heliodisplay image in direct sunlight is almost impossible. The Heliodisplay is interactive, like a virtual touchscreen. A hand or finger can act as a mouse. No special glove or pointing device is required. Just as you use a mouse to move the cursor on a traditional computer monitor, you can use your finger to move the cursor around the Heliodisplay image (see: Images & Videos).The Heliodisplay connects to a computer (at least: Pentium III 400MHZ;25MB free disk space;Win2000/XP) through a USB port. Operating the device will not change a room's environment, air quality or other conditions. Air comes into the device, is modified then ejected and illuminated to produce the image. Nothing is added to the air so there isn't any harmful gas or liquid emitted from the device. If a Heliodisplay were left running for a week in a hermetically sealed room, the only change to the room`s environment would be from the electricity used to run the device. Although the Heliodisplay uses lasers, the images are not holographic. The image is display into two-dimensional space (i.e.planar). Heliodisplay images appear 3D when viewed from more than a few feet away because there is no physical depth reference. Images can be seen up to 75?off aspect for a total viewing area of over 150?- similar to an LCD screen. Viewing requires no special glasses or background foreground screening. The Heliodisplay is backward compatible and accepts most 2D video sources (PC,TV, DVD, HDTV, Video game consoles). For connection to a computer, the Heliodisplay uses a standard monitor VGA connection; for TV or DVD viewing, it connects using a standard RGB video cable. This version of the Heliodisplay is interactive, like a virtual touchscreen. A hand or finger can act as a mouse for mouse/cursor control. No special glove or pointing device is required. Just as you use a mouse to move the cursor on a traditional computer monitor, you can use your finger to move the cursor around the Heliodisplay image (see: Images & Videos). The Heliodisplay connects to a computer (at least: Pentium III 400MHZ;25MBfree disk space; Win2000/XP) through a USB port http://www.io2technology.com/technology/overview ---------------------------------------------------------------------- E - U A E I S I M P R O V E D 12 August, 2005 E-UAE 0.8.28 ============ This is a fork of UAE, the Ubiquitous Amiga Emulator, with an emulation corebased on WinUAE. It attempts to bring many of the great features of WinUAEto non-Windows platforms. This version now finally has a name, E-UAE, sincethat's what everybody was calling it anyway. The 'E' can stand for anythingyou fancy. Experimental, extreme, exciting, egalitarian, eggplant, . . . Currently it will build and run (with a varying degree of supported features) on Linux and other Unices, Mac OS X, BeOS, AmigaOS itself (either for 68k machines or PPC machines with OS4.0) and the AmigaOS clones AROS and MorphOS. OS X requires either LibSDL or an X server for graphicsoutput, but native graphics are supported on AmigaOS and BeOS, although, at the moment, SDL is also preferred on BeOS since the native driver is incomplete. E-UAE is open-source software and is made available under the terms of the GPL. See the COPYING file included with the E-UAE archive for details. E-UAE is based on the work of dozens of contributors including Bernd Schmidt (the original author and maintainer of UAE), Bernie Meyer (the author of the x86 JIT compiler), Toni Wilen (the current maintainer of WinUAE), and many more. To make full use of E-UAE you will need access to an image of some version of the Amiga Kickstart ROM (although UAE does include a ROM emulation which may work with some old games). The Amiga Kickstart ROMs are copyrighted material and may not be freely distributed (so don't ask me for a copy). If you don't have an Amiga from which you can legally make a ROM image, a selection of ROM images are available for purchase online from Cloanto (publishers of the Amiga Forever distribution). Seehttp://www.amigaforever.com/ What's new since 0.8.27 ======================= General ------- * Many core emulation changes and fixes merged from WinUAE 1.0. * Optimized interpretive 68k emulation with speed improvements of up to 30%. * Fixes for building with GCC 4.0. * Fixes for building on 64-bit hosts such as the AMD64. * Option not to use the CPU's time-stamp counter for synchronization on x86, AMD64 and PPC machines (generally you will want to). * Fixed virtual filesystem bug that was causing IBrowse to crash. * Improved 'new' bsdsocket emulation (and it now works on OS X and on AMD64/Linux too). * Better screenmode support in SDL graphics driver. * X11 driver supports raw key-mapping for xfree86 keycodes. * Documentation updates (thanks to Henrik Farre for documenting the command-line options). Linux ----- * Faster start-up on x86 and AMD64 systems and PPC systems with Open Firmware (it's no longer necessary to perform TSC/TBC calibration at start-up). * CPU frequency scaling supported on x86/AMD64 systems. OS X ---- * Faster start-up (it's no longer necessary to perform timing calibration at start-up). * Improved Cocoa dialogs (thanks to Steve Saunders). AmigaOS (and clones) -------------------- * Fixed virtual filesystem bug that broke mounting of a host path ending in a ':' or a '/'. * Faster start-up on OS4 on AmigaONE hardware (it's no longer necessary to perform timing calibration at start-up). * High/true-colour rendering supported on AROS. * AmigaOS graphics driver now works on OS4 update 3. * Emulated SCSI device and hence CD32 emulation now work on OS4.0 (support other Amiga-like OSes will follow). Win32 ----- * Rudimentary support added for compiling with MinGW32 against SDL (and I've also heard that it works with Cygwin). This is just for fun right now, and if you want UAE on Windows you're much better off sticking to WinUAE. Still to do =========== The following features of WinUAE are not supported: * Serial and parallel port emulation. * AHI soundcard emulation. * Catweasel support. * OpenGL rendering and graphics filters. * Snapshots * Emulation of a CD32 controller. * Floppy drive sounds. * Everything else that I've forgotten about. Known problems ============== Some significant misfeatures that I know about and am working to fix: * Only platforms supporting the GTK+ toolkit have a useable configuration GUI (and the GTK+ GUI is still incomplete). * JIT direct memory access only works on Linux/x86 and, by default, you may only emulate up to 32MB of direct ZIII RAM; select more than that and the JIT will fall back on indirect memory access and hence will be slower. This is due to a system limit on the size of a POSIX shared memory segment. You can overcome this limit my modifying the value of the procfs setting, /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax. * Autoscroll screens are broken in Picasso96 emulation. * Virtual filesystem doesn't support platforms which use UTF-8 for filenames (e.g., OS X, Linux with a UTF-8 locale, etc.). Filenames with characters outside of the core ASCII range will be mangled. * Hard files are limited to 2GB in size. * Full documentation is lacking. Using E-UAE =========== Documentation is a work-in-progress. See the docs directory. Compiling E-UAE yourself ======================== See the docs/compiling.txt file for more information about building E-UAE. CVS === Details about how to access the CVS repository containing the current development version of E-UAE can be found at: http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=109723 Contact ======= See http://www.freelists.org/list/uae for details of a mailing list discussing problems with and development of E-UAE. Send bug reports, comments, patches, etc. to the above list or to: Richard Drummond <uae@rcdrummond.net> http://www.rcdrummond.net/uae/e-uae-0.8.28-RC2/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A M I P O D D E R U P D A T E I S A V A I L A B L E 27 August, 2005 AmiPodder version 1.2 is now available for download. This release speeds up the "Update all Channels" operation by checking to see if the channel has been updated before downloading and processing the feed. It's a small change but makes the "Upate all" feature much more usable. Podcasting is a new way for anyone (from large companies to individuals) to distribute radio programs they have made themselves. Podcasting has rapidly gained popularity, particularly with the recent addition of podcasting support to Apple's iTunes music software. AmiPodder enables you to subscribe (for free) to podcast fees on your Amiga! Once you have subscribed to a feed within AmiPodder, you can browse the available podcasts and download the ones that interest you. AmiPodder can be configured to download new podcasts automatically so there is always something fresh and interesting to listen to. Once a podcast has been downloaded AmiPodder can play it using MP3 player utility on your Amiga and, optionally, copy it onto a portable MP3 player for listening anywhere. http://www.seal-amiga.co.uk/robert/amipodder/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- R O C K B E A T R O C K S O N T O 1 . 1 24 August, 2005 What is it? - RockBEAT is a simple software drum machine for AmigaOS4.It is a tool for musicians that allows you to create drumming tracks. It can create multiple tracks, each one being 4x 4/4 measures with 16th notes. You can save individual tracks as wav files, or the whole thing as one big song. You can drop in your own 16bit 44100Hz PCM WAV samples in the drumsamples/ folder if you like. Great for the bedroom guitarist! - RockBEAT 1.1 now available. It fixes a few teething problems - No more grim reaper alerts when starting then stopping playback quickly I removed an AbortIO() call that wasnt really needed. - Theres no more excess silence at the end of wav files for individually saved tracks - Button graphics are freed up when quitting now - All message ports are emptied and deleted when quitting. No more "unfreed signals" error messages now, and I think it has brought up stability a little. - Drum samples limit changed to 20. It used to crash after more than 10 samples were loaded due to a silly programming error. i.e. looping up to 20 times when there were only 10 available spaces in the array. - Adding new samples to the drumsamples/ folder will no longer make old projects invalid - Better compatibility with some WAVs. RockBEAT used to assume a certain WAV header value was a always certain size, but I've found out it can bedifferent. - I have included a cool cymbal sample to the default drumsamples/ set The demo is restricted to 10 minutes. If you like it, you can purchase a keyfile from me for $15 USD. This is not an automated process. Once I recieve notice of your payment, I will email you a keyfile as soon as possible. This shouldnt be longerthan 48 hours. http://wookiechat.amigarevolution.com/rockbeat/index.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- V A G U E L Y U S E F U L L D R A W I N G P R O G R A M 30 August, 2005 MindSpace Version 0.2 The "Vaguely Usefull" release MindSpace and all its associated IP, files, icons, documentation and everything are copyright Yoodoo2/Riba/AST 2005.

Contact me at: steen@flux-studios.com Requirements: A 3D graphics card Warp3D AOS4 Installation: Copy GLMatrix aswell as Matrix3_half2.png to the same directory. For example 'WBStartup'.

Spiele: Update von 2Decide / Demoversion von Wild Flying 2Decide 1.2 Joar Berntsen hat ein Update seines AGA-Spiels 2Decide auf Version 1.2 veröffentlicht. Hierbei handelt es sich um ein rundenbasiertes Strategiespiel, das sich insbesondere durch seine Themes auszeichnet. Hiervon liegen fünf Stück bei, der Spieler kann jedoch auch selbst neue Spielvarianten durch Veränderung der Grafik- und Text-Dateien erstellen. Zudem ist ein Karteneditor enthalten. Download: 2decide.lha (483 KB) Wild Flying Das 3D-Tunnel-Schießspiel Wild Flying wurde im Jahr 2002 sowohl begonnen als auch wieder eingestellt, da nicht genügend Interessenten für die Arbeit an einem AGA/RTG-Spiel für AmigaOS/68k gefunden werden konnten (Screenshot). Aus diesem Grunde hat man sich nun zur Veröffentlichung einer Demoversion dessen entschlossen, was seinerzeit erstellt wurde. Die Engine, für die als Ziel 20 FPS unter AGA/NTSC angestrebt worden war, wurde nahezu fertiggestellt und bietet unter anderem drei verschiedene Waffentypen sowie vier Spezialwaffen.
