MorphOS: IceFileSystem 2.3 and IceDoctor 0.9
The IceFileSystem is now available in version 2.3 which includes bug fixes and increases of the performance.

Additionally for the first time a beta version of IceDoctor was published which is a application for repairing a damaged IceFS filesystem.

The filesystem is Shareware (and gets slower in the unregistered version). After 300 sold keyfiles it becomes Freeware.

Changes:
  • Trying to copy files into recycledir manually would raise internal exception and some files still in meta cache could get lost
  • FSConfig now can load/save settings to file and print settings to the shell
  • FSFormat now wipes blocks twice as fast
  • Bug in job.device fixed
  • Added VInfo tool: shows locks and notifies on icefs volumes
  • Icefs volumes now always contains recycledir and filechangelog, use fsconfig to turn them off if desired
  • A few smaller things here and there

ACube Systems: Firmware-Update for Sam460ex
ACube Systems has published a new version of the firmware used in the PPC-motherboard Sam460ex. Please note that this update can only be installed via TFTP.

With version 2010.06.04_20110321 the onboard-SATA2-connection of the Sam460ex is completely finished and can be used with the sam460sata.device. But this driver only works in the PIO-mode. Future updates of the driver are supposed to support DMA. Besides, the DDR2 and Radeon-HD4650 integration were improved and in the PCI-E-1x/SATA2-menu a bug fixed. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Bageln - a small number game (Update)
Achim Kern's Hollywood-based remake of the number game Bageln is about computer-aided guessing of a three-digit number. Currently available for MorphOS only, versions for AmigaOS, WarpOS, AmigaOS 4 and AROS/i386 as well as Mac OS X and Windows will follow shortly.

A short description of Bageln: In this game, the computer chooses a secret three-digit number with the figures 0 to 9 - and you have to try to guess them. Unfortunately, you have only 9 attempts! No number is found repeated. After each attempt of guessing, the computer gives you indications in the following way:
  • PICO - a number is correct, but on the wrong place
  • FERMI - a number is on the correct place
  • BAGELN - no number is correct
You will learn to pull ends from these indications and your results will improve by more exercise. The authors of the original program written in Basic are D. Resek and P. Rowe of Lawrence Hall of Science in Berkeley, California. The first multimedial conversion of the program had been done Achim Kern / KeHo Software in 1998.

Playing the game: Our barmaid Eva turns all three trays and three big "X" will appear. Now it's your turn. A click with the left mouse button onto a tray raises the displayed number, by using the right mouse button it is decreased. If you have selected your three numbers click on Eva. Now Eva gives you the indications (Bageln, Pico, Fermi) as mentioned above.

Update: (19:48, 19.03.11, snx)
Meanwhile also the versions for AmigaOS, AmigaOS 4, AROS/i386 and Mac OS X/PPC have been published. (snx)
