Genesi: Support for the AMCC 440EP Yosemite board (Update)
Press release Genesi is pleased to announce that it will provide under license the Pegasos hardware abstraction layer and IEEE 1275 compliant Open Firmware (HAL/OF) for the recently released AMCC 440EP Yosemite Board.
The Pegasos HAL/OF approach brings with it immediate GNU/Linux kernel support as well as support from a growing number Linux distributions, including Debian, Gentoo, YDL, Ubuntu, CruxPPC, Montavista and Fedora. An OpenSolaris PowerPC port is also underway. The Pegasos HAL/OF has been used and is being used to support PowerPC-based platforms from Freescale, IBM and now AMCC.
Genesi recently participated in the first European meeting of Power.org
held at the Barcelona Super Computer Center. At the Event the Pegasos HAL/OF approach was discussed as a
potential standard for PowerPC based boards to speed system enablement.
"Already, companies like Genesi USA Inc. are building PowerPC processor-based systems using the IEEE 1275 Open Firmware model to bring
PowerPC technology, flexibility, and efficiency to the desktop, low-end server, home entertainment, and pervasive computing markets at an affordable price. The hardware abstraction layer of the PegasosPPC has been integrated into the mainline GNU/Linux kernel and includes an x86 emulation extension which allows generic PC-based components to be used."
The Pegasos HAL/OF approach enables the vast software resources currently available on the Open Desktop Workstation to be shared with other PowerPC-based platforms. The Open Desktop Workstation is a CHRP compliant platform based on the
Pegasos and composed of standard PC components. The Pegasos HAL/OF provides a
logical successor to the CHRP standard replacing hardware dependent code with API callbacks to an abstraction layer that provides a common interface
to operating systems and/or applications as required.
Update: (18:51, 23.08.05, snx)
At linuxdevices.com you can find a photo and an article about the Yosemite board. (snx)

PageStream: IRC session / Updates for AmigaOS/68k and MorphOS imminent
As Grasshopper LLC inform on their mailing list, updates for PageStream 5.0 are imminent. Besides a much improved MorphOS version, there will also be an Amiga/68k release for the first time.
Furthermore there will be an IRC session with Deron Kazmeier (IRC nick: "PageStreamSupport") to celebrate the 20th anniversary of PageStream. The conference will start on August 27 at 22:00 CEST (3 PM Central Standard Time) on irc.dal.net at channel #PageStream. Some systems will require a specific server (a few users have used mesra.kl.my.dal.net if all else fails).
To celebrate this anniversary, users who purchase (or have already purchased) PageStream 5.0 or PageStream 5.0 Pro will find a grab bag of goodies in the download section including some commercial clip art and the Amiga's much beloved TypeSmith font editor. These goodies will be available until the end of this month only. (snx)

Kick Off 2: World Cup 2005 in Germany
The 5th official Kick Off 2 World Cup is coming to Germany. It takes place
from November 12th to 13th, 2005, in Cologne. After England, Holland,
Greece and Italy had the honor of hosting before, it is Jörg "Panni"
Pansen and Sascha Weigelmann who organise this big event in 2005. They
expect guests from all over Europe and as the hosting country they
hope that a lot of fellow countrymen join them in the games, partying and
finally battle for the World Cup title.
The official forum to the WorldCup is at
. On this forum
there are - sometimes rather vivid ;) - discussions concerning the rules
and all kinds of Kick Off related topics.
Kick Off 2 is a computer based football game from the company Anco back
from the year 1990, which was mainly successful on the Commodore Amiga and
the Atari ST. The game is still fascinating today because of its rapid
gameplay and the unique way of steering, where it needs real skill to
control the ball. The fun while playing is enormous and even so many years
after the release there is a giant fanbase. (snx) (Translation: nba)

Feelin: Patch for beta version 050819
Olivier Laviale has released a patch for the recently published beta version 050819 of his object-oriented system Feelin (amiga-news.de reported).
The patch does fix the following bugs:
1. dos.library/DupLockFromFH() does not work with WinUAE virtual volumes (and maybe large disks). Because the function was used by FC_Document, Feelin was unable to read XML files, which result in an empty preference editor. This is fixed now.
2. "Prefs" has not been linked properly, resulting in a crash when the program ended. This is fixed now.
Furthermore, one person reported a dimension problem: the preference editor window was too big, ~1500 pixels. The author would like anyone to contact him who has experienced the same issue.

iPod Shuffle and Amiga: amiShuffle v0.6.0
Thomas Meigel wrote a simple program to use the iPod shuffle in
combination with AmigaOS. The program allows the connection of the
mp3-player using the USB-port and shows the shuffle inside the system
as an integrated USB flash stick with mp3-play-function.
After copying the mp3-files onto the iPod the user should start amiShuffle
to fill the database (iTunesSD) with the necessary information.

Commodity: Dragon imitates draggable screens (update)
Dragon from #AmigaZeux is a little program, wich imitates the function of Amiga's screendragging under CyberGraphX (Screenshot, Video).
With the left mousebutton the front screen can be pulled down and sideways to have a look at the screen behind. A click of the right mousebutton switches to this screen. Moreover a GUI offers certain options.
Download: Dragon.lha (62 KB)
Update: (12:01, 22.08.05, snx)
Meanwhile the version 1.1 is available under the same download link.
Besides a general code cleanup the old Mode-ID is reused and the BestModeID is skipped if the screen to be opened has the same depth as the minimum required depth.
Moreover the indication of the version in the OpenLibrary()-function call was corrected: Minimum required is V41 of the cybergraphics.library and not V42, as mistakenly mentioned. (snx) (Translation: ts)

AmigaOS 4: Drum-Computer RockBEAT 1.0
RockBEAT is a simple software drum machine
(Screenshot)
for AmigaOS 4. 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!
The demo is restricted to 10 minutes. If you like it, you can purchase a
keyfile from the author for $15 USD. (cg) (Translation: nba)

Texteditor: New name wanted for GoldED-distribution
The GoldED package shall get a new name, says programmed Dietmar Eilert.
The name of the editor will remain GoldED but the whole package needs a
different name (one which does not contain "ED" because development has
moved away from pure editor and towards a package for developers). A list
of candidates has been compiled under the titlelink. Further suggestions
for a new name should be sent by email to the programmer or should be
posted into the amiga-news.de forum thread. (cg) (Translation: nba)
