OS4 Linux: Provider installs AROS optionally (Update)
According to PC OpenSystems LLC (the company behind OS4 Linux - amiga-news.de reported) under the title link, from monday on all purchasers of hardware can get AROS installed without extra charge - at first as guest operating system under VirtualBox and later, if the computer will be completely supported by AROS, as second boot option as well.
But the prices of the computers are not low which can be demonstrated with this example of an HP-Pavilion-23-system called "Indigo Desktop" by the OS4Store: with AMD-A4-Prozessor, 4 GB RAM and 500-GB harddrive, it costs 1100 US-Dollar. The producer itself sells an upgraded model for 700 Dollar.

Amiga-500 clones: Amiga 550 and Amy the Dream Clone
Currently there are at least two projects which have the goal to make available an extended Amiga-500-board.
The Dutch exchange board Amiga 550 will have a Zorro-II-slot for a Picasso-II graphic board, IDE-port and two clock ports as well as ports for the MAS-MP3-Player and accelerator boards (68020/030/040).
In Sweden the board of "Amy the Dream Clone" has been already presented at the Retrospelsmassan 2013 in Göteborg (photo). This board was developed by 'Mr. Andersson' with the goal to be used in a Mini-ITX-case and with PC-keyboards as well as mouses. Additionally it has also a Zorro-II-compatible slot.

amiga-news.de: Old news imported to database
Just like many other websites, from 1998 until 2001 amiga-news.de mainly worked with static HTML-sites which at that time were maintained with GoldEd and some ARexx-macros. Since January and June 2001, the German and English sections have been using a tailor-made database solution which was created by Sven Drieling.
Now Christoph Gutjahr and Sven Drieling have integrated all 10.000 news from the "static phase" of Amiga-News into the database. Among others, about 900 HTML-files had to be converted and refered - additionally the server now manages many redirections for as many as possible external links are supposed to stay valid.
Altogether, the Amiga-News database includes almost 50.000 news. A little walk through our archives always is a worthwhile delight - for you can find sad and still more sad news as well as very appropriate comments or some crazy news.

Web-Browser: NetSurf 3.0 for AGA-chipset (beta version)
Artur 'Arti' Jarosik has released a port of the browser NetSurf which works with the AGA-chipset (Video).
This is a first beta version which is very slow. The layout is scaled to 70% on a screen with 640 x 480 pixels. Therefore it might be necessary to adjust the size of the fonts.

Version 0.4 is a hardware update. An Arduino Nano with Ethernet-Shield is used. The firmware image as well as the board design of the "plipbox nano" were updated.

MorphOS 3.2: Panel-Objects / No Warp3D-support for R300-boards
By reworking the Ambient pictogramm menus for MorphOS 3.2 by Stefan 'Kronos' Kleinheinrich, now so called panel-objects can be used. Three of such objects have been made available in the MorphZone (Screenshot): from the left to the right you can see a time display, an animated Elephant and a monster.
Nicolas 'Henes' Sallin confirmed a bad news: The warp3d.library and therefore all Amiga games which access it, cannot benefit from the TinyGL-R300-driver since the rave3d.library is not developed further any longer.

AmigaOS 4: WLAN-driver atheros5000.device 1.4
With the atheros5000.device a network board driver for AmigaOS 4 is available for WLAN-PCI-boards (54 Mbps, 802.11g). The WPA/WPA2-encryption as well as WEP are supported. PCI-Express-boards may also work but have not been tested.
For AROS and MorphOS this driver which was written by Neil Cafferkey is already available. A port for AmigaOS 3.x probably will not succeed due to the DMA-requirements.

System-Patch for A3000/4000: ApolloFix loads 680x0.library to OnBoard-RAM
André 'Ratte' Pfeiffer has written a patch for A3000-/A4000-users which always loads the 68040 and 68060 libraries to the virtual memory of the main board. This helps Apollo accelerator boards working without any problems with the reset-routines of some versions of the 68060.library. The author supposes that this patch improves the system stability of other accelerator boards as well.
