individual Computers: Software updates
Press release: We're providing a hotfix for the Catweasel drivers that corrects writing of Amiga-disks. The only updated file is the Imagetool, please only use it with the latest beta-drivers V2.3.0.0. Download: imagetool_hotfix.zip (77,6K). Caution: This hotfix has only been tested with Amiga-disks!

Oliver Achten has done a lot of work on the MMC64: Since MMC- and SD-cards with a capacity of more than 4G are already available, MMC64 now supports the FAT32 filesystem. This more modern filesystem also has advantages on smaller flashcards, because most C64-files are so small that FAT16 will only waste a lot of space. The new BIOS also made updates on the plugins necessary, most plugins experienced a complete re-write, the old plugins will be updated shortly and can currently only be used with FAT16. The MP3-plugin can now playback whole directories as playlists, the AVF-plugin plays an MMC64-proprietary video format that also utilizes the MP3@64 module. The Picture-plugins have also been updated and they are available in version 1.3 on our support page. An example video file in AVF-format is also located there, because we don't have a converter for your videos yet.

Peter Wendrich has made major updates to the C64-core for the C-One in the past few months. The interrupt behaviour of the CPU has been corrected, a bug in sprite display in the lower screen area has been removed, and the timing-behaviour of the CIA-chips has been implemented according to the results of Peter's detailed research. The new core is available in the download-area of the C-One Webseite. (cg) (Translation: cg)

Photos from a Polish MorphOS 2.0 presentation
The clues are increasing that the next version of MorphOS should carry the version number 2.0 and the time to the release must no longer be counted in years, but in months: As yet unconfirmed rumors have it that Jacek "Jacadcaps" Piszczek has made a MorphOS 2.0 presentation at the Polish event Amimajówka 2007.

Those who inspect the photos from the event more closely, will actually discover some improvements: For example, semitransparent windows or screenshots from a TCP stack can be seen, among other things. (cg) (Translation: cad)

Thumbnail icons: Eastern 1.6
Stephan Rupprecht's Eastern is an Workbench plugin which displays thumbnail preview icons instead of the default icons for those picture files that do not have own icons.

With the latest version a bug has been removed, which lead to a creash when started from Workbench with undefined tooltypes. Also the design of the wildcard icon has been changed slightly.

Eastern is available for AmigaOS 3 and OS4 (cg) (Translation: ub)
