`24.Jan.2003` Martin Heine (ANF)	Statement of Genesi concerning trouble of delivery On MorphOS-News.de Genesi has given its opinion on the current trouble of delivery of the Pegasos. It is said that Genesi is waiting for more Articia-chips of Mai. Until Genesi will get and afterwards test it a delivery of the present chip version is expected which works without any errors thanks to the April chips in the Pegasos. Besides this Genesi tests an alternative but something more expensive chip so in future it may be possible to work together with a different seller. At the end of 2003 MorphOS may also be published for Macintosh computers but probably only as an executing second unit for applications which should be also offered for the Mac. In this connection it is asked if there is anybody who is interested in porting "wxwindows" on MorphOS. (ps) (Translation: dr) [News message: 24.

`24.Jan.2003` M. Lück (ANF)	End of GRex petition M. Lück wrote: Today is the end of the GRex-petition. Until today 296 users have subscribed. TriMa and me want to thank you for your support. Unfortunately this petition has failed. I want to explain in the following lines why it is so. Two weeks after the start of the petition I have sent the first list with all signatures (without email addresses) to DCE per email. I got an answer of DCE at once. DCE wrote that they would be glad about a support of OS4 and that they are interested in the current discussion. We got the information of Steffen Häuser that the cybpci.library written by Ralph 'Laire' Schmidt will not work in the 68k emulation because of the 68k MMU setup. So the petition still became more important because presently GRex users have no chance of getting AmigaOS 4.0 started. We got all information per email which Hyperion needs to support the GRex. Four addresses are needed: The base of GRex I/O address The interrupt acknowledge address The base address of config space mappings or the PCI-config and PCI-data address No circuit diagramm, hardware or software documents are needed. These information I sent DCE per email. I have not got any response until today. Then we got the information that bplan has the hardware rights. This means DCE has only a licence for the GRex. If this is true or not we do not know. One week ago I contacted Mr. Carda per email for getting clearness. But I also have not got any response until now. That is a pity. Now we hope that we can attract attention by posting this article. Thank you very much again to all participants... The attempt of moving something forward means so much to us - also if it may fail.
