Genesi: Development programs for High Density Blade Server and OSW
On PPCZone.org Genesi has started development programmes for the announced products High Density Blade Server (HDB) and Open Server Workstation (OSW).

OSW is supposed to carry two 970MP PowerPC-processors by IBM (altogether four processor cores) and will be available in June 2006.

Whereas the HDB is to be equipped with two PowerPC-G4-processors by Freescale and a Tsi109-Northbridge by Tundra.

Both development programmes have been opened, own project ideas can be registered. Handling of new applications for the already active Efika-programme is supposed to be continued in the first week of March. (snx) (Translation: iw)

MorphOS: FuhQuake 0.31
Mark Olsen adapted FuhQuake for MorphOS. This is a Win32/Linux-Quakeworld-Client, which among other things also brings about some visual effects (screenshots).

Required are in addition to a lot of memory both the latest version of TinyGL (the 3D update) and the original Quake files. If you want to compile FuhQuake on your own, you'll need TinyGL-SDK and the latest update of Libnix. (snx) (Translation: iw)

Afa: AROS for AmigaOS 3.92.1
A new update is availlable for AfA(AROS for AmigaOS). Beside improving the Fasticons-Function and the picture.datatype the new AROS-Version of Mulitview is now included.

Details of the Changes:
  • Because of Fasticons programs like Amistart or the oscilloscope of the Eagle-Player, which need an exclusive pin, now work due to sufficient free pins.
  • Programs like Thumb, that were not supporting the picture.datatype, should work now - if any more problems should occur feedback is resquested.
  • In directory c: multiview_afa is now included; this might be lacking of i.e. a fullscreen mode or saving the standard prefenrences, but using the AROS-picture.datatype the images can be enlarged and adjusted to windowsize.

AmigaOS 4: Update for the Remote Desktop Client
The Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) enables access to applications running on a Windows Terminal Server, via a network. The User's workspace only displays the current application(Screenshot).

Changes in this Version, which requires the prerelease-update 4:
  • Native support for AmiSSL v3, AmiSSl v1 is no longer required
  • Mousewheel-support

Since the leader of the project is paying the authors for their work, users of the RDP-client are asked to support further development with a small donation.

Pegasos: Linux live CD Niktarix 0.4
With Niktarix Nick Niktaris created another Linux live CD for Pegasos (ODW) (Screenshots).

Components from Knoppix, Kanotix and Debian Sarge were used here; contained are in addition to Kernel 2.6.11 among other things KDE 3.3.2, UnionFS, Mozilla/Firefox, Open Office and GIMP.

UnionFS, which takes some time while booting, makes it possible to work like you have booted from the hard disk instead of from a CD - in this way it is possible for instance to install or remove .deb files.

Open firmware call:

boot cd niktarix root=/dev/ram rw init=linuxrc

MD5 checksum:
