Genesi: Website for the planned computer game "Gladiateur" online
The official website for Genesi's computer game project Gladiateur (amiga-news.de reported) is now online at http://Gladiateur.PegasosPPC.com.
Gladiateur - The game
The game takes its inspiration from the stage production by Elie Chouraqui and Maxime Le Forestier, which debuts in Paris in 2004. The game allows you to take the role of Spartacus the Thracian, and lead the slaves in their revolt against the powers of Rome.
Gladiateur is a game development that will not simply lead to the release of a single game. The first release will concentrate of the War of Spartacus, but the game will evolve into a massively multi-player online realm, in which thousands of players will be able to take a part in the adventures and ambitions of the Roman world. Set against the backdrop of the Spartacan revolt, each player will be able to take a side in the rebellion or make their own way, going wherever opportunity takes them. You will be able to become a soldier or a merchant, a pirate or a politician. Players will be able to join together to form their own factions, or work alone. You will be able to live the carefree life of a wandering adventurer, build a powerful trading corporation, or rise to power in the Senate and change the very history of Roman.
The initial release of Gladiateur will use the Northland game engine from Funatics. This is a very sophisticated RTS (Real-Time Strategy) game in its own right, but in Gladiateur it will be extended to provide a unique, genre-busting experience. In the world of Gladiateur, persuasion and popularity is as important as units and resources, and tactics means a lot more than having the biggest army. This is not just another game where you build a base, defend against a few attacks, mass forces and finally rush the enemy base - this is a game set in a dynamic living world of tyrants, peasants and slaves where fear or loyalty can turn the tide of battle, and building trading links can be as important as building armies.
Gladiateur - The musical
Gladiateur is a musical stage spectacular written and produced by Eli Chouraqui, accompanied by a musical score composed by Maxime Le Forestiere. It will debut on 1 October 2004 at the Palais de Sports in Paris, and go on tour in Spring 2005. The music from the show will be released by EC7/Universal Music in 2004.
Eli Chouraqui's previous stage production was Les Dix Commandemants (The Ten Commandments), which debuted in Paris in 2000 and toured France, Switzerland, Belgium and Montreal. An English language version is due to open in 2005. Over 4 million albums, singles and DVDs of the production have already been sold.

Report from Pegasos Technology Demonstration in Washington DC, USA
In his report from the Pegasos Technology Demonstration, which took place Oct. 18th in Washington DC, USA, Daniel Miller writes the following:
MorphOS, Linux, AmiNetRadio, FxPaint, MPlayer, Kaya, ImageFX, free Superbundles, fresh MOS1.4 CDs with IBM stamp, ProStationAudio, presentations, the "VCR" case, complete system pricings, Peg II picture, MOS1.5 timing, MadBomber, and more.
From start to finish this was a really classy affair. I am local to the area and was invited to bring and show my own Pegasos, but this didn't stop me from checking out the scene and watching the presentations. Genesi personnel were really on a mission, giving personal attention, and striving to show the technology at its mindblowing best.
The chief exhibitor was magneticsystemsnyc.com who drove down from Brooklyn with a squad of state-of-the-art Pegasoses, including one of the few G4 models we have on this side of the pond. Four of those systems were configured for MorphOS, the fifth did double duty as an MoL/Debian (Gnome) machine. In addition to my comparatively home-spun system, there was a nice array of Genesi paraphenalia such as a plexuscom concept case, spinning illuminated Peg motherboards, a mechanical butterfly, a sampling of shrinkwrapped games, a Catweasel flipper for display, posters, sellsheets, free Superbundle (v. 3) and MOS1.4 IBM stamp limited silk screen edition CDs. Jammin'!
Now the stuff was neat, and the people were neater, but I must say seeing the cutting edge MOS systems in action was even more neat than that. It was... neat-o! Where to start? well, one of the more striking things was AmiNetRadio. As much as anything else this really illustrated one aspect of the future as Genesi sees it. The live radio stations scroll down in a list, and you select your favorite genre. It very quickly picks up the stream and your music plays. Most streams were at 128, some at 64, so this is fairly high fidelity. You can record your streams to MP3 files on your hard-drive, and them play them in Kaya. This all occurs effortlessly. Why does this illustrate part of Genesi's vision? They see themselves providing media, audio, visual, audiovisual and games via similar tools. Customers are then able to access their favorite media whether they are on walking trails with the planned Eclipsis handheld device, in their homes at their home theater, or at their workplace, whatever. You don't carry around a CD or plunk a videotape in the VCR, you just select your media on whatever device you are nearest and play it. Genesi believes that all this media including high resolution movies will be deliverable as the Pegaos progresses and new Genesi products are introduced. So that's the concept, maybe you like it, maybe you love it.
Another concept, this one now reality, is the "VCR" Pegasos. This was introduced by magneticsystemsnyc.com. What is it? It's a Pegasos in a small case that looks sort of like a VCR. This is offered as a complete Pegasos II system. If you don't want to muck around with assembling your own, you can consider getting one of these. It's nice and uses a half height Radeon video card. I like this, because it is an early step in the shrink-down evolution of Pegasos from standard desktop to set-top box to the handheld computer which is conceptualized to have all the power of a Pegasos.
Bill and Raquel from Genesi were there, as always demonstrating their personal commitment to the platform and its development, and supporting the rest of the Genesi team working towards the goal of a advanced, mature, popular, modern, alternative computer system.
More software: MPlayer was all over the frickin' place. People who demonstrated this system have recognized a winner. On just a G3 600 Mhz Pegasos running MorphOS 1.4 Mplayer is the most quickloading, responsive, compatible videoplayer ever on any platform. I am not spinning you, everybody says this. We all need to send the Mplayer programmers five dollars right now or something. There are few sublime pleasures in life as the first time you starting moving an MPlayer window opaquely around the screen, and realize that there is zero stutter or distortion, no matter how fast you circle it around. Hi-res letterbox or whatever. Of course it goes full screen and has a bunch of control features too.
There was some new image editing software from NovaDesign shown. They make well-established graphical prodcuts like ImageFX and Aladdin 4D. I was not clear on the details, but there is the intention to offer some form of this new software with future MorphOS versions, the Superbundle, or both. This is a clear potential asset to the Pegasos MorphOS product. The prospect of a revamped Aladdin4D ray tracing program for MOS was also talked about. ProStationAudio was shown. This is a really advanced sort of product with a detailed, intricate interface and all these channels and mixing controls and a lot of busy stuff going on all over the screen. It was shown mixing some tracks and certainly sounded good. It seems to me that this is a product for an audio professional, but maybe a casual home user can have fun with it too. Gotta go, I will have to write some more later, especially about... MadBomber!!!
PS: The BB half of BBRV stated MorphOS 1.5 would appear before the new year. Don't let them forget about that TCP-IP stack, thanks.
Photos of the event can be found at PegasosPPC.com.

Cyberstorm: Report on DCE repairs / MorphOS version at the end of this year
CyberStorm Warranty Repairs
As mentioned on the thread at Amiga.org earlier, all CyberStorm boards sent in under warranty will be replaced by new ones. The production of these is partly done, the PCB's are there with all lower part components fitted. The problem currently is the lack of availability of the right 68K sockets. The ones that were originally used for the Phase5 and later DCE productions were specially made for Phase5 and are no longer being manufactured. However, there are several investigations ongoing at other manufacturers to adapt existing (and available) connectors to be fitted to the CyberStorm PCB's. Once this is solved, the production will be completed and all involved will receive new CyberStorm cards under warranty.
Non-Warranty Repairs
All non-warranty repair customers should have had a price quote from me. The repairs that could be done have been completed and all cards have been sent back or will be sent back in the next week. There are also repairs that are pending awaiting CPU sockets (see above).
Non-Repairable Items
Repairs that could not be done have also been sent back or will be next week. Several cards have been sent back by DCE already, others will be returned by me from Rotterdam next week.
Other Factors
During investigating the whole repairs issue, several disturbing things have come to my attention. There are cases of repairs not being done because they have been submitted through a reseller that has had outstanding invoices for three years, and also cases where repairs were done and sent back to a reseller, who then sold them as new products. I will not disclose specific information but just wanted to state this in DCE's defence, they're not always the one to blame...
Genesi Gesture
As a gesture from Genesi, there will be a new release of MorphOS for 'classic Amiga' PowerPC cards available for free. The planned release is at the end of this year.
DCE and Genesi
Several people have opted their concern in the Amiga.org thread about possible future repairs at DCE for Genesi products. First of all, please consider that the Amiga repairs are a special situation and it is not common for repairs to take this long, not even for DCE. Furthermore, anyone buying a PegasosII is dealing with Genesi, not with DCE. If there is a case where a Genesi product needs repair or replacement, Genesi will see to it that it happens the right way and in a decent timeframe. For reference see our history with the mainboard exchanges for April and April2 fixed boards. These were made at DCE too!
Preliminary Conclusion
Apart from the wait for the right 68K sockets, most issues are either done or will be in the next week. There are however still some unallocated cards at DCE. Anyone that also thinks they have an outstanding repair at DCE and has not been in contact with me yet, please do so NOW, as we are working towards concluding the whole operation and at some point soon we will not take on any more investigations. If you have sent in your repair to a reseller be sure to mention which one explicitely.

Ron van Herk

Report from LinuxInfoTag in Dresden, Germany
At the first LinuxInfoTag in Dresden, Germany, on Oct. 18th, the Image_Installer team presented the Pegasos. We did not expect such a big success and were surprised by the scores of visitors crowding our stand who were interested in the system. They represented several platforms, from Amiga users to people using x86 systems.
One could test the system, and some visitors made use of the opportunity to install Mandrake 9.1 themselves on the Pegasos using the Image_Installer. They were surprised in a positive way and amazed how quick and easy the installation was finished. Also MorphOS didn't get a raw deal. The visitors tested the SuperBundle and were impressed by the speed of the system, despite just having a 600 MHz CPU.
When we had a little bit of time, Michael Heider of course continued to work on Image_Installer and removing bugs. We can say with quiet conscience that with version 2 of the Image_Installer an easy installation of PegXLin and Gentoo is possible. To the question if this version would also be free or enclosed with the Pegasos we had to answer "no" for the time being, since we don't know this ourselves yet.
At the KDE team one could see a pre-release of the new KDE 3.2. New applications were added as well as graphical improvements. Daniel Molkentin demonstrated among other things an Outlook clone and a faster webbrowser.
Also some people from the Debian team were there. They showed Debian 3.0 for the x86 platform and provided help to questions regarding installation and adjustment of Debian to x86 systems.
Bert Radke of the Jabber team showed the latest version of Jabber. One could get information how a Jabber server is build up and which advantages Jabber provides.
At IBM students could get information about new notebooks. Computers from desktops for the office to servers were shown by AMD, who also provided the Internet connection for the show.
Further small projects were free games for Linux and the topic "Linux at school and university" by the university of Dresden.
Furthermore the visitors could take part at an Install-Party during the whole day to solve problems.
