amigaworld.net and os4depot.net currently offline
Because of a hacker attack the English Amiga site amigaworld.net can be currently not accessed. The team now tries to close the lacks of security which were caused by the hacker.

Because os4depot.net is also hosted at the same server the access to this OS4-archive is only possible with mirror os4depot.happybiscuit.com or per FTP (amiga-news.de reported). (cg) (Translation: dr)

IRC Channel #ac.de Meeting Being Planned
The IRC channel #ac.de plans to meet this spring for a weekend in Oberharz. Here are two of the dates (one in May, the other in June) for consideration. It mostly depends which date would get the greater attendance.

The plans include setting up a little LAN, a Beamer, a homestyle barbeque and possibly a trip out to the hills. The costs will be about 45 euros per person for all the trimmings. Those interested should send an e-mail to Lars Schimmer. (snx) (Translation: dm)

Instructions: Using DrawStudio on the Pegasos
Carsten Siegner describes as follows how one may get DrawStudio to run on the Pegasos. He writes:

"First you should get the archive from my webpage: Drawst.lha. It contains a monitor driver named "PAL." That's a PAL emulation for CyberGraphX. Further there's a prefs file for Drawstudio. Copy this to the DrawStudio directory.

After that DrawStudio starts fine with a normal screen-mode picture. The only thing still missing is SmartWin from Aminet. This gets past a small bug in DrawStudio. SmartWin must be copied to the startup directory. After a reboot, the Pegasos user may use DrawStudio totally normally." (snx) (Translation: dm)
