Video tutorial: WIFI internet on Amiga with BlueSCSI v2
BlueSCSI v2 is an SCSI solution for retro computers. Based on the Raspberry Pi Pico-W microcontroller, there are further possibilities, though.

The Video at the title link demonstrates how one can also use it to access wireless LAN, thanks to an Amiga driver written by Rob Smith. (snx)

Motorola68k emulation: Status update on the WLAN driver for Emu68
After Michal Schulz had released the first stable version 1.0 of his Motorola68K emulation Emu68 a good week ago (amiga-news.de reported), he is working intensively on a WLAN driver and had made first considerations and tests in a Patreon post.

In yesterday's post under the title link, he now reports that he has made quite a bit of progress with the development: the WLAN driver initialises correctly, scans for available networks and can connect to them. As soon as this happens, you receive data packets (frames) that can now be passed to the network stack.

Michal's next step is to finalise the SANA II driver interface. For the time being he will only connect to a predefined network for testing reasons. Once this is working and he can use the driver with AmigaOS, he will add the wireless features - releasing network scans to AmigaOS, getting signal strength, selecting a wireless network to connect to and so on.

After completing this step, he will either use an available tool or write his own to display the networks on AmigaOS and allow the user to connect. Finally, he will also provide some sort of configuration file to allow the driver to connect to a specific network at startup. As a last step he will then try to implement wireless security protocols like WPA/WPA2/WPA3. (dr)

Hyperion: Bankruptcy proceedings reopened against Ben Hermans B.V. (Update)

Since then, this very company also acts as the "Director" of Hyperion Entertainment. more ... (cg) (Translation: cg)

Overview: Linux for Sam and A1222-Plus boards
With our ongoing coverage of new Linux kernels for the AmigaOne X1000 and X5000 models (amiga-news.de reported), the availability of the A1222 Plus, as well as the Sam460LE boards, raises the question of how Linux support will look here.

Sam boards

As Amiga Linux expert Christian 'xeno74' Zigotzky explains to us, the kernels for the X1000 and X5000 cannot be used for the Sam boards. The responsible developer Julian Margetson, who built, tested, published and offered support for these Linux kernels for the Sam, had to stop working on them for personal reasons, so someone is currently being sought to take over this task.

However, there are still working Linux downloads available for the Sam boards.

A1222 Plus

The Debian developers have removed the PowerPC SPE platform so that there will be no more Linux developments for the A1222. The reason for this was the deletion as a target platform in version 9 of the vcc compiler, which was already obsolete in version 8.The Debian developers have removed the PowerPC SPE platform so that there will be no more Linux developments for the A1222. The reason for this was the deletion as a target platform in version 9 of the vcc compiler, which was already obsolete in version 8.

However, all kernels and images remain available on the Tabor Linux download page. As Christian explains, Debian PowerPC-SPE works very well on the Tabor board (screenshot). If you would like to test Debian on the A1222 Plus, you will find Linux Guide. The links to the latest kernel and to the PowerPC-SPE version of the Arctic Fox browser: Further downloads can be found on the A1222 Linux downloads page (user name: tabor, password: amigaone). (dr)

PDF-Magazin: REV'n'GE 156 (italienisch/englisch)
The PDF magazine REV'n'GE ("Retro Emulator Vision and Game") is available in both an English translation and as the original Italian version. The REV'n'GE game reviews compare, where available, the conversions of classics between different platforms of the time. An attempt is also made to pick out lesser-known retro games.

The latest issue, focusing on naval simulations, now links directly to YouTube videos with recordings of the game being reviewed: If a corresponding video is available, it can be accessed by clicking on the "Trailer" icon at the top of the page. (cg) (Translation: cg)
