AROS: Patch 01 for Icaros Desktop 1.4.5
With the first patch for version 1.4.5 of the AROS-distribution Icaros Desktop, this now includes the NTFS-support for reading such partitions.
Additionally it is now possible to use the Hifi-modes of several soundcards (based on ESS1375/SB128 and CMI8738) and to "handle screens of different resolutions on selected chipsets."

AmigaOS 4: Timberwolf 4.0.1.0213 - RC2 (Update)
Today "Release Candidate 2" of the Firefox-port Timberwolf has been published for AmigaOS 4.
For the further development the aim is to achieve the current status of the Firefox. This has not been possible to realize as part of the finished bounty project because it would be a fast-moving goal. After the release of AmigaOS 4.2 as an absolute necessity for it, OpenGL and WebGL support will be added and thus Timberwolf will be completely hardware accelerated.
The update fixes the following bugs:
- The UI font size now adapts correctly to the system's default font
- Downloaded files can now be directly opened with user-selectable programs, for example, you can use UnArc to open a newly downloaded archive
- Should now work without RANDOM mounted, it will fall back to using pseudo-random numbers (i.e. rand in newlib). RANDOM is an entropy collector, and thus generates much more reliable random numbers. If you can, use RANDOM:
- Should be slightly faster now (html5 benchmark said between 0 and 20 % faster) due to new Cairo build (latest version). Don't expect miracles, though
- The bookmark database is now using a new scheme that should make concurrent access possible. This was necessary to make sure that the user interface is correctly enabled when the browser is launched with a web page (home page/command line). The upside is that it might now work on JXFS (please try). The downside is that this has to be tested and might make it necessary to have an rc3
Download: timberwolf.lha (25 MB)
According to first tests of users, version RC2 seems to cause more considerable problems compared to the previous version. At the moment therefore we cannot recommend to install this version.
Update: (06:50, 28.07.12, snx)
It is possible to use version RC2 in a stable way if you use the files libcairo.so and libsqlite3.so from RC1 instead of the new ones. Additionally delete the directory CurrentUserProfile before you start Timberwolf. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Workbench replacement: X-bEnCH 0.5 (beta version)
X-bEnCH is a graphical user-interface with 128 colours which replaces the Workbench for starting WHDLoad games (.slave, .exe).
According to the developer the program runs on all Amigas (OCS to AGA as well as 68000 to 68060 processor) and requires little virtual memory. This is the first public beta release after 4 public alpha releases. Changes:
- Very First cLi implementation (Just as test for the moment)
- Fixed Display failure on NTSC Machine.
- FIxed a bug that was craching non AGA Amiga on startup.
- Fixed the color palette bug on exit to your wbench.
- Fixed a slowing bug when going to left/right in the launcher.
- Credits added fastly in the menu some minutes before releasing.
- Fixed a display bug in the Setup that made the list type display to don't change after that a list have been updated.
- Corrected the "invalid object" bug in your listings. But you must update all buggeds lists to correct this issue.
- Fixed the Flashing sound/screen bug in some Whdload games/demos with the Preload Option by default.
- Better progression indicator when you update a list.
- Fixed many display bugs

AmigaOS 4: PDFToolkit 1.0
Lazar Zoltan's PDFToolkit - it is not to be confused with pdftk from the Linux-world - can merge PDF-documents or split them into single documents. Additionally it can combine two or three PDF files by stamping over or add header/footer/page numbering to existed documents keeping the contents intact.
PDFToolkit was written in Python. Therefore the user-interface (screenshot) could not be realized with Reaction. The program requires the basic Python installation as well as the pyPDF-module written by Mathieu Fenniak.
