MorphOS 2.0: Transparency-patch Lucy
The new transparency functions in MorphOS 2.0 cannot be set for all windows but must be started by the applications. The patch "Lucy" written by Matthias "UltraGelb" Böcker uses this function to make currently inactive and/or unfocussed windows translucent. Lucy requires MorphOS 2.0 and enabled 3D Layers.

Information, tools and screenshots about MorphOS 2.0
If you cannot test MorphOS 2.0 at Youtube you can find a Video which demonstrates the operating system. Martin "Senex" Heine has published some screenshots at Photobucket.

Michal "Kiero" Wozniak has published a tool called Scube (159 KB) which demonstrates the new 3D-functions of MorphOS.

MorphOS 2.0 has still some bugs:
  • There are not any working audio driver for Efika motherboards
  • SCSI-devices are not always recognized correctly
  • There are some problems with certain Pegasos-/Radeon-combinations (e.g. a Pegasos 2/G3 with Radeon 9000 Pro)

USB stack: Poseidon 4.1 for Subway, Highway, Algor and Deneb
A new update of Chris Hodges' USB stack Poseidon is available; it can be downloaded using Trident online update or from the title link.

Starting from version 4.0, Poseidon is no longer keyfile bound - it is only licenced to E3B hardware (and MorphOS). You cannot upgrade Poseidon to version 4.x for using it with the Spider, Amithlon or Thylacine, so please don't attempt to do so, the author will not provide the legacy archives for downgrading.

Users of E3B hardware can upgrade for free to this latest version. This includes Subway, Highway, Algor and Deneb users, no matter if they are using an old Poseidon 2.x or 3.x release. No keyfile is required.

If you want to support the author, please consider donating an item from his Amazon wishlist.

Changes:

Version 4.1:
  • Maintenance release
  • Fixes in config handling and change detection
  • Fixes in PTP class, USB Audio and Mass Storage
  • Ethernet drivers now are ready for transmission before S2_ONLINE
  • HID class now supports AmigaOS 4 input events for better compatibility
Version 4.0:
  • Support for Realtime ISO transfers
  • Support for USB Audio (Streaming / Soundcards)
  • Better semaphore handling
  • Support for 3D Space Navigator in HID Class
  • USB Power Sockets supported by shell tool
  • Sonix Webcam shell tool and VHI driver with RT ISO support
  • Support for the Deneb USB 2.0 board
  • Several bugfixes and enhancements
