MorphOS 1.5 beta shown in Bremen
As MorphOS-News.de reports has a beta version of MorphOS 1.5 been shown on the "Video- und Computerbörse" in Bremen.

As Jakub Kassim reported you could see the new 3D hardware drivers for the Radeon 7000, 7500 as well as for the VE in Action and for example play Heretic II in a resolution of 1024 x 768. The drivers worked already good though they aren't completely finished respectively optimized yet.

Besides that has the preferences system been revised and does now contain among other things setting possibilities for screen savers and more mouse options. (snx) (Translation: wk)

Patch: domains with special characters on Amiga
Cyborg wrote: Hi, on the FTP server of benderirc.de there's a TCP/IP patch (8 KB) for alle TCP/IP stacks for the Amiga. The patch has been tested with Miami on a 68040 Amiga under AmigaOS 3.1.

The patch allows all programs to use ISO strings, for example "sfbücher.de", without having to convert them into the IDN spelling "xn--sfbcher-p2a.de".

Example:
> ping sfbücher.de
PING xn--sfbcher-p2a.de (212.162.56.70): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 212.162.56.70: icmp_seq=0 ttl=54 time=59.093 ms
64 bytes from 212.162.56.70: icmp_seq=1 ttl=54 time=57.98 ms
64 bytes from 212.162.56.70: icmp_seq=2 ttl=54 time=56.614 ms

--- xn--sfbcher-p2a.de ping statistics ---
3 packets transmitted, 3 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 56.614/57.895/59.093 ms

As you can see does the miamiping even recognize the "xn--" spelling and shows it without the program ever get to know this at all! It is really unpatched!

Unfortunately this doesn't work with web browsers as it should but this is because of the browsers and not because of the patch (the reason is described in the readme file).

In short: AWeb for example does show the IDN spelling but uses the ISO way with the vhost. This does the Apache-WebServer not know and the page can't be found. For sfbücher.de I have made this possible.

Therefore here's a call to the IBrowse & AWeb teams to adapt their routines. The ping shows that it's possible (how is written again in the readme file).

YAM and SimpleMail have the same problem on another level but that could be solved the same way.

To make the thing with IDN easier in the future I'll soon make an IDN library available for converting.

The patch archive contains an IDNA converter ISO->PUNYCODE. This way you can provide the browser with the correct name in the meantime.

  • The IDE lockup problem has been solved.
  • The irritations of the RTC when loading/saving on the Pegasos II are now fixed.
  • The system clock in general does now work normal on the Pegasos II.
  • The "Exec MEMF_REVERSE" memory fragmentation bug has been fixed.
Further information regarding downloading and installation have been given on the beta2 mailing list. (snx) (Translation: wk)

OctaMED SoundStudio V2: OS4 version announced
After the appearing of a quoting from the mailing list for the program OctaMED SoundStudio V2 on ANN confirmed the author Gerd Frank that there will indeed come a PPC/AHI version for AmigaOS4.

Tests and support for a MorphOS version, though, aren't possible for him because of the lack of hardware because he didn't receive a Pegasos from Genesi despite an agreement with Genesi in summer last year. (snx) (Translation: wk)

John C. Dvorak's article about MorphOS released in the "PC Magazine"
In the US-American PC Magazine wrote the columnist and TV presenter John C. Dvorak an article about MorphOS.

In his positive description of the operating system Dvorak talked about the developers having morphed the architectur of the AmigaOS - maybe the best code ever used on a desktop computer - in the truest sense to adapt it to the PowerPC. The Pegasos by Genesi also got a brief mention.

After a short paragraph about CHRP (Common Hardware Reference Platform) and Apple's temporary license for clone manufacturer the author comes to the USB compatibility of MorphOS, mentions the micro kernel "Quark" and touches on the A and Q-Box of the operating system.

Regarding the chances of this newcomer Dvorak talks about the enthusiasm of the MorphOS community and points out the formerly by Nintendo and Sega dominated consoles market that did also change in a serious way.

He ends his article with a summary of the career of the "unbelievably hot computer" the Amiga once had been and his opinion that this time - here MorphOS is meant - may well go better. The URL for MorphOS.net finishes the article. (snx) (Translation: wk)

ArakAttack: USB support for Prometheus may be possible
Thanks to the latest information on the Prometheus PCI interface it was possible to add native support to the ArakAttack USB driver.

It was possible to work around the missing memory conversion routine, so there is a good chance USB will be possible on Prometheus hardware.

At http://www.vmc.de/amithlon/swr you'll find a debug version with prometheus support. This version is checking the API only. No USB functions this time. Please read the included readme for further information on how you can help making USB and other drivers possible on your system.

Please install the latest prometheus.library and Poseidon V2.2. There is no need to insert an USB card, because it's only a function test. (snx)

Matay: Update of "Prometheus" support-site
Matay has updated the support site for its PCI-busboard "Prometheus". All available drivers and tools as well as the information for developer concerning the "prometheus.library" can be downloaded there.

A short FAQ ("Frequently Asked Questions") has been added. We want to quote some points:
  • Matay still always offer a free FlashROM-upgrade for the Prometheus
  • AmigaOS4 as well as MorphOS already support the hardware
  • The author of OpenPCI has obviously given up the project and now works on MorphOS. The corresponding drivers are still in beta-status and do not work with the Prometheus satisfactory.
  • Grzegorz Kraszewski who is the designer of the Prometheus has nothing to do with Matay and now works on MorphOS, too.

Review: DVD Burning on Amiga w. LiteOn 8x DVD-RW
The South Wales Amiga User Group (SWAUG) has a DVD burner LiteOn LDW-811S DVD+/-RW on Amiga with software DVDRecord test.
Among their other product reviews
SWAUG rates the product at 89%. Worth noting is that the software in question only supports the Minus format for DVDs. However the LiteOn burner can be inserted otherwise easily at the Amiga and is cooperative in its CDRW functioning, for example it also should work with MakeCD. (snx) (Translation: dm)

AmigaWares: Amiga Apparel by Randomize at Computer City
On account of inquiries about "AmigaWares" the Canadian firm Randomize has notified the Dutch dealer Computer City that they may import Randomize's Amiga apparel for European fans.

In spite of the import fees and the Dutch value-added tax, and owing to the current exchange rate of the dollar, these goods may be offered for about the same price Randomize designated in U.S. dollars - the euro amount may be found by multiplying the dollar price times 1.1.

You'll find an overview in the Fanware section at the new webshop of Computer City. Please mind that this shop is still under construction and the orders and resulting delivery and handling costs must be manually calculated. (snx) (Translation: dm)

Study: 62 Percent of all Internet emails are classified as spam already
With their new February statistic the anti spam company Brightmail want to show that about 62 percent of all emails can be classified as spam actually. Most spam messages are adverts for products (24%) and financial services (18%). 14% of the spams are classified as "for adults only" and 15% are deceits, including "phishing" i.e. the angling for confident customer information.

The statistics are created frequently by Brightmail's network of bait and switch postboxes. The so called Logistics Operations Centers (BLOCs) in Dublin and San Francisco process catched spam messages all around the clock and create more than 30,000 new filter parameters daily for their anti spam software. Two years ago only 7 percent of all emails were spam. (nba) (Translation: ub)
