Cloanto: Amiga Explorer 6.0 released
Cloanto have released version 6.0 of their Amiga Explorer. A trial version (1.9 MB) can be downloaded which is limited in a way that it can't transfer files with more than 1 KB in size.

The Amiga Explorer networking software makes it possible to access the resources of an Amiga computer from one or more Windows systems. Configuration is extremely simple and by default requires only a few mouse clicks on the Windows side.

The new version 6.0 of Amiga Explorer is compatible with AmigaOS 4.0 and MorphOS. The trial version can also be used for upgrading from the previous version.

Amiga Explorer is available stand-alone as well as a part of the emulator package Amiga Forever, which is to be released also in version 6.0 in a few days. (snx)

Workbench design with AmiChameleon
Everybody who has already tried to change the look of the Workbench completely knows how much the work that means. Searching for images, changing preferences, loading skins, etc. If you want to change the look again later on the same starts over again. Because of this I've developed AmiChameleon. It archives once created so called themes and installs them later again in the simpliest way. This way it is possible to change the design of your Workbench completely with only a small number of mouse click.

On a server are already several themes saved that can (directly from AmiChameleon) be viewed, downloaded and then installed. It will also be possible to create such themes with AmiChameleon (still beta and without manual).

Themes: With AmiChameleon you can change/install the following graphical elements:

System settings:
  • WB-Pattern
  • Fonts
  • Palette
  • Pointer
  • Sound
  • ReAction


Further settings:
  • Magic-Menu
  • VisualPrefs


Skins for the following programs:
  • CoolCalc
  • WBClock
  • AmigaAMP
  • AmiNetRadio
  • PlayCD


Startbars:
  • AmiStart
  • AmiDock


Other supported programs:
  • Birdie
  • BenchTrash
  • GarshneBlanker
All these parts together are called a theme and are supported by AmiChameleon. (snx) (Translation: wk)

Linux: Image Installer SE for Pegasos and Amiga-PPC released
The Image Installer that shortens the installation of various Linux distributions on the Pegasos I and II or the Amiga with PowerPC card to several minutes and eases it, is now available with an image file of SuSE 7.3 for download in a special edition.

The SE version is meant to demonstrate the functions of the Image Installer and to collect experiences in the use of Linux. The installation is done from an image that was created before from a correctly installed and configured Linux base installation.

To use further programs it is necessary to get the full distribution. The SuSE image file works exclusively with the SE version that is without any support by the SuSE Linux AG or the Image Installer team.

Hardware needed:
  • Pegasos with at least 128 MB RAM or Amiga with PowerPC card
  • CyberGraphX supported graphics card (recommended Pegasos: ATI Radeon)
  • harddisk drive with 6 GB free space
  • CD or DVD drive
  • CD burner for the ISO files

  3. The Giant
  4. Between Friends
  5. Please Me
  6. In Good Company
  7. Nitro Glycerine
  8. Lounge Living

  10. The Jungle Trail
  11. Still Motions
  12. Soundstreamz
  13. Understatement
  14. Bonus track: Soundstreamz Instrumental
Two tracks called "Kikki" and "Understatement" have been uploaded to the website of ArtistLaunch where you can download it for free. Besides this on the homepage of LynneMusic a medley has been prepared where you can listen to a "summary" of the album which lasts five minutes. There you can also find further information, the cover artwork and all kinds of ordering. (nba) (Translation: dr)
