Elbox: Cocolino driver update for AmigaOS 4 users
Press release: ELBOX Computer has released today the new driver for the Cocolino PS/2 mouse interface. The new software is available free of charge for all registered users of the Cocolino interfaces.

The Cocolino archive includes:
  • Cocolino.driver ver. 1.2
  • CocolinoTest
  • FreeWheel ver. 2.2.1

Changes in Cocolino.driver ver. 1.2:
  • generating IDCMP messages for OS4 added
  • OS4 parameter added for switching from NewMouse to IDCMP format

About Cocolino:

The Cocolino PS/2 Mouse Interface is a microprocessor-based adapter for attaching PS/2 mice, trackballs, glidepoints and radio-controlled mice from the world of PC computers. Cocolino can work with all models of Amiga computers. It simply plugs into the Amiga's mouse port. The Cocolino PS/2 Mouse Interface is a full 'plug and play' device.

No software is required for standard use (mouse movements + two buttons support). The enclosed software allows using two wheels and 3rd, 4th and 5th buttons available in many PS/2 mice and trackballs.

The Cocolino interface starts working simultaneous with the computer's start so mice can be used in the early-startup-menu (unlike the mice connected through the serial port). Cocolino uses linear movement interpolation, which makes mouse movements perfectly smooth with any screen frame rates. (cg) (Translation: cg)

As usual the developers of the well-known Amiga emulator WinUAE have given a short preview to the forthcoming version. WinUAE 1.4.6 will be published in one or two weeks and will be the last revision of the emulator which will run on Windows 98/ME.

  • Some games crashing (temporary workaround: enable >2M Chip RAM)
  • Broken sprite outside playfields-feature and SWIV score information
  • Fullscreen mode with non-default refresh rate fallback problem
  • A600/A1200/A4000 IDE emulation froze with >2G drives/HDFs
  • CDTV E.S.S. Mega: "semi-hidden" track now loads properly on W2K/XP
  • Crash when switching between <=2MB Chip + Fast and >2MB Chip setting
  • Sound emulation tweak (Dungeon Master II)
  • Unstable NMI option in cycle-exact and more-compatible modes

New features of WinUAE 1.4.6:
  • Inverted mouse and analog joystick input sources
  • Input device (USB joystick, mouse etc..) on the fly insertions and removals supported. Device names saved to configuration file
  • Automatic joystick switching, firebutton 'inserts' any non-selected joystick to Amiga joystick port. Second button selects mouse port

  • 1M (both 0xe0/0xf8 and 0xf0/0xf8) and 2M (0xa8/0xb0/0xe0/0xf8) ROM image support
