Web-Browser: NetSurf 3.0 for AGA-chipset (beta version)
Artur 'Arti' Jarosik has released a port of the browser NetSurf which works with the AGA-chipset (Video).

This is a first beta version which is very slow. The layout is scaled to 70% on a screen with 640 x 480 pixels. Therefore it might be necessary to adjust the size of the fonts. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Internet over parallel port: plipbox 0.4
With Christian 'lallafa' Vogelgsang's plipbox Amigas without many extensions can go online. The Arduino-based adapter can be connected to the parallel port and provides a connection to the Ethernet-port of the Arduino board. The magPLIP-protocol is used.

Version 0.4 is a hardware update. An Arduino Nano with Ethernet-Shield is used. The firmware image as well as the board design of the "plipbox nano" were updated. (snx) (Translation: dr)

MorphOS 3.2: Panel-Objects / No Warp3D-support for R300-boards
By reworking the Ambient pictogramm menus for MorphOS 3.2 by Stefan 'Kronos' Kleinheinrich, now so called panel-objects can be used. Three of such objects have been made available in the MorphZone (Screenshot): from the left to the right you can see a time display, an animated Elephant and a monster.

Nicolas 'Henes' Sallin confirmed a bad news: The warp3d.library and therefore all Amiga games which access it, cannot benefit from the TinyGL-R300-driver since the rave3d.library is not developed further any longer. (snx) (Translation: dr)

AmigaOS 4: WLAN-driver atheros5000.device 1.4
With the atheros5000.device a network board driver for AmigaOS 4 is available for WLAN-PCI-boards (54 Mbps, 802.11g). The WPA/WPA2-encryption as well as WEP are supported. PCI-Express-boards may also work but have not been tested.

For AROS and MorphOS this driver which was written by Neil Cafferkey is already available. A port for AmigaOS 3.x probably will not succeed due to the DMA-requirements.

System-Patch for A3000/4000: ApolloFix loads 680x0.library to OnBoard-RAM
André 'Ratte' Pfeiffer has written a patch for A3000-/A4000-users which always loads the 68040 and 68060 libraries to the virtual memory of the main board. This helps Apollo accelerator boards working without any problems with the reset-routines of some versions of the 68060.library. The author supposes that this patch improves the system stability of other accelerator boards as well. (cg) (Translation: dr)
