Linux (for PlayStation 2) From: ps2linux-announce@playstation2-linux.com Dear PlayStation and Linux Enthusiast, Now is the time to put yourself inside the next generation in computer entertainment! In response to your request for information on LINUX (FOR PLAYSTATION 2), we are excited to let you know that this accessory is now available for pre-order in the United States and Canada* exclusively at http://www.us.playstation.com/?refUrl=linux, with an expected shipping date of May 22, 2002. Combining the incredible technology of the PlayStation(R)2 computer entertainment system with the endlessly versatile Linux operating system, Linux enthusiasts and programmers can now use the same system they play their favorite PlayStation games on to run thousands of Linux applications! The LINUX (FOR PLAYSTATION 2) accessory kit allows you to utilize the PlayStation 2 console as a fully-functional desktop computer. Download a wealth of Linux programs -- HTML editors, multimedia players, office solutions and more -- or program your own software to run in the PlayStation 2 Linux environment. Included with the LINUX (FOR PLAYSTATION 2) kit is the PlayStation 2 Linux software, an internal hard disc drive (40 GB), a 10/100 Base-T Ethernet Network Adaptor, and a USB mouse and keyboard. You will still need to purchase or supply a PlayStation 2 console, a 8MB memory card (for PlayStation 2) [preferably a new memory card -- once formatted for Linux use, your game data will be erased and you will not be able to save new game data] and a VGA monitor with sync-on-green capability [check your monitor's user manual to see if it meets this requirement]. While it's exciting to see tremendous interest in this new PlayStation venture, there are a few things for you to note before purchasing. LINUX (FOR PLAYSTATION 2) is a tool for Linux enthusiasts and programming hobbyists. Basic understanding of the Linux operating system is strongly suggested for installation and use. Also, be advised that this accessory will NOT enhance your PlayStation 2 games. The hard disc drive formatted for Linux cannot be used with HDD-compatible PlayStation 2 games, and the included Network Adaptor (Ethernet) does not include a modem, which the upcoming standard Network Adaptor will. Be sure to consider all of these factors before making your decision to purchase. For more information about LINUX (FOR PLAYSTATION 2), please visit the official PlayStation 2 Linux Community site FAQ at : http://playstation2-linux.com/faq.php
Once you're ready to immerse yourself into the Linux world via the
PlayStation 2 system, click in and pre-order exclusively from
PlayStation.com. While supplies last.

Coyote Flux: Mail Server Down Since one week there have been some problems with the mail server of Coyote Flux. This caused the e-mail address to be unrecognized for almost one week now. However, this problem should be fixed within the next two days. If anyone needs to send an e-mail urgently, there is another address that can be used: sharwin@thendic-France.com.
As soon as the old address is valid again, it will be posted on amiga-news.de.

07.Mar.2002 Coyote Flux |
Coyote Flux: JMiner revealed, AuroraRadio online JMiner, a photogrammetry package developed on the Amiga, has been revealed. This program allows sequence- and image-based correction in three dimensions and can automatically map a two dimensional map from a (special) video stream. Take a look at the JMiner page to find out more! One thing we would like to mention is that JMiner and the 3D engine are two completely different projects: The 3D objects are compatible with both engines but the renderer is by no means the same. The FPU-based J Miner runs slower when more polygons are added, the integer-based 3D engine will always run at one speed. AuroraRadio is now officially online and is a Shoutcast radio station dedicated only to quality music. Every style and age of music is played, including Amiga modules and C64 SID music. Currently, the radio station is in its test phase, which means that sometimes the server is down, but under normal circumstances it should be available 24 hours a day...!
There are a lot of other big secret hard- and software projects going
on right now, although we cannot say anything about it yet. However,
this will change when release dates get closer. Be prepared for something
unexpected!

SOMS (Gameboy Advance) Group seeks Amiga Programmers Sylvio K. wrote: It's been quiet for a while with SOMS, the action-adventure, because we haven't had any suitable programmers for the Amiga version. Therefore we decided to focus on Gameboy Advance SOMS for the time being. As soon as we find new programmers for the Amiga version, we'll continue with it. Therefore I would like to make the following public appeal: Whatever programmer has interest in working with us, no matter if it's C, E, or other languages (except AMOS, and it has to support CGX) please send an email to sylvio.k@gmx.de.

C64 as WWW server Is there anybody who did not formerly have a C64 as a computer and does not remember with some melancholy the time where you knew the meaning of each bit and byte and could create wonderful things with some magic 20 or 30 written basic lines? Actually the C64 is past because it is much too small and too weak for the high demands of the Internet-epoch. Nevertheless some C64 still run on Internet. Here is the address of a WWW-server (title link) which works with a C64. The only extension being added is an interface card with unbelievelable 38400 bps data transfer rate.
The source code is free available and it is a good inspiration for anybody who has to implement an IP-stack on a 8- oder 16 bit computer.
