Public test of the GAUHPIL database The GAUHPIL (Geographical Amiga Users Home Page Internet List) is a list created and moderated by Dietmar Knoll containing websites of Amiga users sorted by continents and countries. Right now, the GAUHPIL is migrating to a MySQL based database solution. Under the title link, you can find a description of the current state of things and of course a link to the current draft. Meanwhile, the database functions are in a state that the database could be used. The latest additions are the New Links List and the Lost Links List. The moderator invites you to thoroughly test all functions, especially the registration of new entries, and send him your feedback about all malfunctions and any strange behaviour. Currently, the GAUHPIL contains 867 users in 38 countries. (cg) (Translation: cg) [News message: 14. Feb. 2004, 22:38] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version] |

AmigaOS4: news about the beta version Hans-Jörg Frieden of Hyperion gives in a forum contribution on amigaworld.net a short overview about the current stand of developing regarding the AmigaOS4 beta version. We have summarized the essentials for you. After the beta version had been given to the testers there had of course some minor problems to be solved. More difficulties came only from to things: for one had CD-ROM drives not reliably been recognized by the appropriate device - this problem is said to be solved in the meantime. The other problem that is still being worked on is occurs just on a little number of configurations and is described by the OS4 team as "hot air effect" - there's a slight display distortion when using a Radeon graphics card in certain display resolutions similar to movements of heated air above hot asphalt. Nevertheless does the Radeon driver work, there are hints to the reasons of this effect and they hope to solve this problem soon. Right now there's support for a bunch of ATI cards respectively for cards with ATI chips, so does the Radeon 9800 now work with the drivers developed by Forefront Technologies. In another contribution gives Hans-Jörg particular emphasis on the fact that the 3D support for Radeon cards is by now restricted to the 7xxx series. It wouldn't make sense to get a Radeon 8xxx or 9xxx because of the 3D performance, there's still a long way to go until the according drivers will be available.

Eyetech: updates and announcements The AmigaOne distributor Eyetech has started the rework of his web appearance and put some announcements and updates online: "EarlyBird" offer discontinued The "EarlyBird" offer, where the buyers of an AmigaOne don't have to pay for AmigaOS4 and get it delivered by the time of its release, ends on March, 31st 2004. The last amount of AmigaOne-XE computers that will be delivered as "EarlyBird" has already been manufactured. Delivery as long as stock lasts. Preproduction-MicroA1 in small numbers available, pictures of the new revision A first number of MicroA1 motherboards (AmigaOne in Mini-ITX format) has been produced. These are identical with the planned specifications for the sales version besides the missing slot for "enhanced I/O interfaces" and the not existing onboard memory. The until now produced devices are exclusively for retailers and developers who want to demonstrate the computer to potential (bulk) buyers or who want already begin with the porting of specific software. The specifications of the now available MicroA1 computers are as follows:
Pictures of the new motherboard revision are also available. A special case for the MicroA1 has been built in a small series, too, pictures of it can be found here and here. Eyetech's website gets an overhaul To do the change from an Amiga retailer to a PPC motherboard distributor justice, Eyetech's website will be reworked step by step. The webshop will continue to exist for now but Eyetech will only clear existing stocks and charge a fee on small orders. The delivery times for "Classic Amiga" products will become up to two weeks as the articles are now stocked external in a warehouse. (cg) (Translation: wk) [News message: 14.

Back to the Roots: Emulators History Project We want to announce a new service which we started at BTTR, the "Emulators History Project" located at emulators.back2roots.org. At this location we start to collect source code and binaries of all Amiga emulators ever released. We start with the WinUAE emulator history, other emulators to come later. All emulator versions online can both be downloaded or browsed, which may be helpful for coders working on any Amiga emulator or emulator supporting/addon projects. It's a difficult task to find all versions ever released, especially when it comes to the source code (which never had a version in its filename - urghh), that is why we want to ask you for your help to get the collection complete! Please have a look at the current collection of WinUAE files and help us find all missing files (which are marked as red cells): http://emulators.back2roots.org/winuae. Thanks in advance for your time and contribution. (snx) [News message: 14. Feb. 2004, 19:02] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version] |

Interview with the developer of "Mattathias BASIC" Michael Ness developes a new BASIC dialect that seems to be heavily inspired by AMOS. The compiler will be available (among others) for AmigaOS3, AmigaOS4, MorphOS and Windows. The first version will produce easily portable code and is therefore restricted to the creation of programs without a graphical users interface. Graphics, sound etc. will be supported later via extensions similar to the AMOS "Extensions". Under the title link you can find an interview with Michael Ness.

RekoNet offline The "RekoNet" server that had offered a comprehensive collection of card sets for the Solitaire card game "Klondike" had to be taken from the net. Because of the high demand for storage and bandwidth and the partly erotic offering it's hard for the providers to find a replacement. To make the card set collection further online available and also to continue the already started expansion of the offer on other card formats and Solitaire programs are the providers have to rely on small donations. An amount of almost 300 EUR would cover the costs for the next two years. (cg) (Translation: wk) [News message: 14. Feb. 2004, 17:27] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version] |
