MorphOS: Profiler PrfLib 0.12 PrfLib is a library which delivers statistical figures to a running program finding out which part requires how much processor time. Because PrfLib does use a "Trick" of the GCC the library only works with programs which were compiled with it (tested with version 2.95.3 and 2.95.4).

WinAros: New version based on Microsoft Virtual PC A new version of WinAros is available now under the title link. With WinAros it is possible to try the operating system AROS in Windows and to test programs which were developed e. g. with AmiDevCpp. The latest version is based on the todays nightly build of AROS. Contrary to its predecessor this version of WinAros uses the Microsoft Virtual PC 2004 (Screenshot). Compared to the previously used QEMU Virtual PC is more user friendly and offers a better file exchange. An updated WinAros-version for QEMU will be finished shortly.

Cell CPU Card for for PC's with strong Power Supply The US company Mercury wants to provide PC's more power with the help of a plugin board.

Editor's Thoughts and Introduction:
I am typing this on one of the hottest days this year, in the midst
of a heat warning that covers more than two full days. Now while
that's no problem for our readers in the southern hemisphere, it's a
pretty good reason for those in this part of the world to just stay
inside and play with your Amiga. We do have information on a couple of
games this issue that could help you pass the time enjoyably.
It has been a pretty quiet month overall and not all the news that
did happen is cheerful. We were disappointed to hear of the canceling
of AmiRevival. This is another sign that the Amiga community really
needs "a shot in the arm" to use an old American expression. It might
have received a bit of a boost this month with the announcement of a
small number of refurbished A1s becoming available. Details below.
And, surprise of surprises perhaps, there's even a cool new expansion
module available for the A600. Glad to see the smallest Amiga still
gets remembered from time to time. But we're still waiting for ready
availability of new hardware. That would really make the summer more
enjoyable. In the meantime, there are some fun things available in the
community. We hope you enjoy reading about a few of them in this
issue.
Brad Webb,
Editor

AmiGBG, the crew known from the Swedish Amiga fair with the same name,
and Compusphere, a group of true scene veterans, joins forces and
brings you Amiga Summer Party 2006. The event will be a true scene
party with all the proper ingredients. We begin with some demo coding
and beer, then we throw in some nice tunes mixed with some awesome
graphics. And for the grand finale we spice it up another notch with a
big kick ass barbeque.

Atari & PC. So join us at Jorlandagarden on the 25-27 of August, for a
feast ye shall never forget. Meet the people, watch the demos, listen
to the mods and party like there was new Amiga hardware.

After much deliberation it saddens me (Ryu) to announce AmiRevival
2006 has been cancelled.
I and a few other team members have tried hard to secure exhibitors
over recent weeks with not much success. We had been given assurances
by a few organisations that they would attend, or at least their
products would be there but due to a lack of communications with them
I have made the decision the show would not be viable.
Anyone who has purchased tickets will be getting a full refund in the
next few days and if anyone has made any bookings that will leave them
out of pocket please do contact me. I will do my best to try and
compensate.
Many thanks to those who did pre-book tickets, both visitors and
exhibitors, and thanks to those who contacted me over the past couple
of weeks.
Further more I will be taking a step back from the scene for the
foreseeable future, I will keep IntuitionBase.com online and will
update it from time to time but I won't be sinking much effort into
it. The Scunthorpe Amiga Group will remain but no meetings are
planned, and I won't make any more plans until things pick up again.
Thanks to all those who have supported me over the years, I hope to
keep in touch with you all!
Adios and thanks for all the fish

Amont-Infomatique recently received delivery of a small consignment of
AmigaOne motherboards for testing prior to redistribution among all
AmigaOne dealers worldwide.
They did need some time to test them and prepare the new
configurations, but you will very shortly be able to order a
reconditioned AmigaOne from your favourite dealer!
Warning: quantities will be limited.
Update 16 July 2006 Some µA1-Cs are already ready to go out to
dealers. News of the G4 modules is expected some time next week. Those
wishing to trade in their existing G3 800MHz modules should contact t
heir local dealer for a possible trade-in (not all dealers may offer
this).

Description: Quake 3
Download: quake3.lha
Version: 1.31
Date: 07 Jul 06
Author: ID software, ported by Thomas Frieden
Submitter: Thomas Frieden
Email: thomasf/hyperion-entertainment biz
Category: game/fps
Replaces: game/fps/quake3.lha
License: Other
Distribute: no
FileID: 1919
This is a quick and dirty port of Quake 3 for OS4. To play, you need
the latest version of the Quake 3 data files (retail version plus all
patches). You also need the latest MiniGL.library (included in this
archive, copy to libs:).
Unpack Quake 3 data files to a directoy (say, dh1:games/Quake3), and
extract the archive there. (As a reference, the quake3 binary should
be in the same directory as the "baseq3" directory).
To launch, alter the q3 batch file (adjust the path according to your
system) and run "q3" from shell.
The port uses the QVM jit, so it can also run all the mods (tested
with Urban Terror).
Source code is available on OS4depot.net too. The port is unpotimized,
so don't expect it to be blazing fast.
If you want to contact me, write a mail to
thomasf()hyperion-entertainment.biz
DISCLAIMER: This software is provided as-is, with no guarantee for
usability.
Also note: This port has NOTHING to do with Hyperion Entertainment,
it's a spare time project of me. DO NOT write to Hyperion
Entertainment regarding support.
Note: Added gpl.txt. Many thanks to Christian Rosentreter for kindly
making me aware of that.

Description: Simple line printer daemon
Download: lpd.lha
Version: 1.0
Date: 16 Jul 06
Author: Steven Solie
Submitter: Steven Solie
Email: ssolie/telus net
Homepage: http://www3.telus.net/ssolie
Category: network/server/misc
License: GPL
Distribute: yes
FileID: 1935
I. Warning
This version doesn't implement any security features.
II. Prerequisites
You will need at least AmigaOS 4.0 installed on your computer.
III. Installation
Copy the lpd binary to your SYS:Utilities or some other directory.
Launch the Internet preferences program.
Select the "Servers" section.
Press the "New..." button to add a new inetd server.
Pick the "printer" service from the list.
Click "Program" and select where you installed the lpd binary.
Make sure "Active" and "Use socket I/O streams" are both checked.
After you save your Internet preferences the lpd server will be
immediately available for use. No reboot required.
IV. Using lpd
The lpd daemon is currently hard-coded to print whatever it receives
directly to PAR: and nothing else.
More options could be added. Please email with your requests.
lpd.debug is also included which can be used to trouble-shoot
problems. It will output all sorts of useful debug to the default
serial port.
V. Reaching the authors

<ssolie()telus.net>
Juergen Schubert <schubert()rz-sun2.fh-weingarten.de>

added. Feel free to send in your request.
VIII. Acknowledgements

Thanks to Juergen for creating the original version. I used it as a
basis for this new version which should have fixed most of the bugs
in the original.
Also a big thanks goes out to the OS4 development team for bringing
AmigaOS back from the binary dustbin.
Juergen Schubert:
I want to say "Thank you!" to the AmiTCP-team for providing this
great protocol stack. If you want to include an enhanced LPD to your
distribution, feel free to contact me.
