Envy24 v5.3 to support M-Audio-Delta soundcards
The OS4 native driver Envy24 supports in version 5.3 that has just been uploaded to the OS4depot the semi professional soundcards M-Audio Delta 44, 66 (untested) and 1010LT as well as the Terratec Phase 88. Right now is the funcionality, among other things the multiple in and outputs, limited by the sound system AHI, but the sound quality is very good, as the developer said who recommends the activating of the HiFi Stereo++ mode.

RhoSigma, Roland Heyder (ANF)


extra.library and MakeHTMLMap updates released
Roland Heyder's MakeHTMLMap was released in version 4.750. The shareware supports web designers in creating galleries and web shops (online documentation). The latest version offers now adjustable options for layout (colours/background) and fixes a bug in the image recognition. Direct download (1500 KB, lha)

Furtheron was the system enhancement extra.library updated to version 4.649. The changes contain mainly bugfixes and smaller optimizations. The extra.library offers a complex dynamic buffer system for an easy file handling in memory, assisting functions for checksum creation in standard Amiga file systems and some plastical surgery, e.g. a colourful "DisplayAlert()" routine.

PPC-Hardware: "Samantha" with PPC440 and ATI-onboard graphic?
In a thread at amigaworld.net a photo was posted that shows a small part of the PPC motherboard nicknamed "Samantha" that will be introduced at the Italian show Pianeta Amiga (September 23 and 24, Empoli).

The picture shows a part of the PCB that seems to be prepared to host two somewhat bigger chips. The pinout of the right area indicates that a PPC440 CPU might be placed at this position. The PPC440 is a SoC (System on a Chip) CPU available with up to 667 Mhz.

As of yet, it's not known which chip will be put on the mounting area shown on the left part of the picture. Since the CPU used doesn't need a traditionell northbridge, an on-board graphics chip could be placed there. Interesting in this context: On an Italian forum, Massimiliano "m3X" Tretene of Soft3, one of the initiators of the project, identifies himself as an "ATI OEM partner". (cg) (Translation: dr)
