Chip online: Graphic Chips: New Details about Kyro III
»David Harold, Press-Relation Manager of Imagination Technologies, gave a sight on the upcoming Kyro III - developed by the code name of STG 5000 - to the German game magazines PC Action. ST Microelectronic will integrate a freely programmable vertex- and pixle-hader along with the also integrated T&L unit into this pixle accelerator. This chip, which is manufactured in 0.13 µ technology, thus addresses Microsoft's DirextX-8-API (application programming interface), as like Nvidia's GeForce3. «

Events: AmiWest 2001 - News
From 27th to 29th July, 2001 the AmiWest 2001 show will take place in Sacramento, U.S.A.. According to the latest announcements there will be the following highlights:
  1. Presentation of the working AmigaOne with AmigaOS V4.0.
  2. Presentation of the current version of the AmigaDE, running on the Sharp Zaurus. Sharp Zaurus.
  3. Dr. Alan Havemose (formerly employee of Commodore, and Gateway) and Bill McEwen speak about: "Gateway and Amiga - what really happened".
Furthermore the press release reads, that the AmigaOne 1200 would be in progress from the end of July and available from the middle of August. But this remains subjunctive, since it will be official news only when Amiga Inc. or Eyetech do an announcement about. (sd)

Carl Sassenrath (REBOL-ML)


REBOL: REBOL/View V1.2.1
REBOL/View 1.2.1 has been released on June 22, 2001. It is recommended that you upgrade your copy of REBOL/View and View/Pro to this new version. Among other things has a security bug been fixed in this version. This release also introduces REBOL/View for the Macintosh. This is a significant accomplishment. The following has been changed compared with the previous version:
  • Bugfix: Icon DRAW evaluation bug that allowed foreign code to be executed at the desktop level. That problem has been eliminated. (Note that this bug did NOT compromise REBOL's built-in sandbox file protection, as that protection still remained in effect at the REBOL/View root directory level. Files outside of REBOL's directory tree were safe.) DRAW is no longer allowed within desktop icons.
  • Bugfix: The HTTP POST operation has been fixed to properly ignore line termination in the transfer. You no longer need to pad out your HTTP uploads. (This is for read/custom http://... [post "data"]).
  • Bugfix: Bugs that caused load/markup and debase to crash in rare cases have also been fixed.
The current version for different systems can be found in the download area of rebol.com. (sd)

de Volkskrant: "Tulip" reviving the Commodore brand?
It's been reported in a Dutch national newspaper that computer company Tulip intend to bring the Commodore brand back to life in some capacity. Tulip spokesman J. van den Berg claims the company is simply responding to customer calls for Commodore. Whether this means some real Commodore hardware is on its way or all it is is simply a line of PCs with the Commodore logo slapped on the outside is still unclear, but Dutch readers will no doubt find this article very interesting...!

Asyncio.library (68k+WarpOS) update
There's a new update for the asyncio.library with WarpOS support (V40.6). Sadly the last version had the same problems in PPC writing mode than before. This update fixes these problems so that there shouldn't be any more lock-ups on writing with PPC.

If there shouldn't be any problems with it, this will be the last version since there'll be no more optimizations by me that could make the library more efficient. more ... (ps)

(New) informations on GREX 4000 and MicroServer
René Thol has received some interesting informations from DCE on the G-Rex 4000 board and summarizes:
  1. the GREX 4000 is ready, they're waiting only for the boards from the manufacturer.
  2. the GREX 4000 replaces the the daughterboard (ISA-, ZIII- and videoslots) on the motherboard and is connected with the port for the CVPPC on the Cyberstorm board.
  3. the TV board drivers for the GREX are still in the works and are thus no longer mentioned in the GREX advertising since only finished drivers are advertised there.
  4. AGP extensions are not planned. The AGP slots of the AmigaOne will also work only through PCI with the resulting speed.
  5. The planned DCE Microserver will be plugged later in one of the PCI slots and features two SDRAM slots with 133 MHz bus speed. It can be used as busmaster and has access to the entire Amiga hardware. Sadly, a Cyberstorm board already working in the Amiga has still to be used and its processors can not access the SDRAM (buswidth through PCI too narrow). Because of a CPU socket, more current CPUs than the G3/G4 can be used later. Existing PPC applications won't run immediately on the new CPUs (due to addressing and such) but have to be be adapted through (minor) changes in the sourcecode and a special library.

The new and downwards compatible format augurs a substantial better quality of sound at low bit-rates, due to "spectral band replication" (SBR). «

  • Bugfix: Mounting from RDB did not work in v1.186.
  • Changed: AmigaOS: SCSI_DIRECT support was removed.
  • Changed: Some unused parts of the code were disabled (deviceio/asynctransfer).
  • Changed: AmigaOS: Device check with the TD_GETGEOMETRY command, which did not work, was removed. If needed, NSDPatch.cfg should be used for this instead.
This version should be used carefully. Bug reports and confirmation of that it works might be sent to Jörg Strohmayer. more ... (sd)

With the media blessing of the holding company AOL Time Warner, the former synonym for browser software will become an internet media center. In future surfers will find a broad range of contents by Time Warner there. Under discussion are among others Fortune, Time magazine and news by CNN.«
