AmigaOS 4: RadeonHD driver 0.32 for Sam460 / AmigaOne 500
ACube Systems has published a new version of the RadeonHD driver for PCIe- graphic boards written by Hans de Ruiter. If you did not get the update via eMail then please use the ACube-contact formular.

Bug fixes in version 0.32:
  • Some R700 GPUs were locking up when compositing "large" vertex arrays. FIXED
  • Screens that were larger than the display resolution were garbled. FIXED
  • R500 vertex array clipping was one pixel larger than it was supposed to be (could cause the right-hand edge to spill over to the left most column of pixels). FIXED
  • Fixed an R500 compositing bug that could cause corruption if one compositing operation rapidly draws directly over the previous one
  • WaitTOF() and similar functions could cause the machine to lockup when called from a task with a priority >= 1. FIXED

AROS: Workbench replacement Scalos ported
Matthias Rustler has ported the Workbench replacement Scalos to AROS. Because Scalos requires DOS-packages, the port is only available for AROS-systems with the ABI-V1 binary interface.

In a statement on aros-exec.org the author explained the problems which still exists: Drag'n Drop as well as the "Lasso" for choosing several icons do not work. The AROS-icons do not look very nice because the format of the pictogramm is still not supported. Additionally the content of a directory is not listed. Then simply choose "update" from the menu list. (cg) (Translation: dr)

AROS: Patch 03 for Icaros Desktop 1.3.3
For version 1.3.3 of his AROS-distribution Icaros Desktop, Paolo Besser has published a new update which includes new system files as well as the latest PaperCuts.

Chganges:
  • fix for commodities like FKey: they don't appear iconified on the desktop anymore
  • fix for italian translation: it will now be re-enabled in Wanderer
  • added iconify button to Zune windows title bar (must be enabled by user)
  • fix for ICE, Icaros Classic and Icaros Blue themes to support iconify button

The following problems are known:
  • Wookie Chat, PSI prefs and other programs crash on de-iconification
  • InstallAROS (and maybe others) crash on iconification
  • SimpleMail crashes if double-clicked on its custom AppIcon
  • no fixes to problems reported with icon.library
  • iconify gadget has no image in other Icaros decorations, so default "3.1" rectangle will be used

Aminet celebrates 20th anniversary
On January 16th 1992 an user called Urban Müller posted announcement of a new FTP-server to the newsgroup comp.sys.amiga.misc: There not only several Amiga files could be found under amiga.physik.unizh.ch but it also is the official FTP-site for Amiga Unix. This first announcement have already included the typical upload lists.

From this little server hosted on an Amiga 3000 UX which should not be accessed "between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m." by external users so the administrators could use it for its own purposes it has become the center for Amiga software as well as the biggest software archive of the world with 34 servers and about 100 MB uploads per month.

You can find a detailed description of the history of the Aminet on Aminet-Wiki. (cg) (Translation: dr)

AmigaOS 4 / AROS: Picture viewer LoView 2.37
LoView written by Simone 'Tuxedo' Monsignori is a picture viewer with support of datatypes which also includes some simple picture editing functions. The pictures also can be viewed as "thumbnails". Version 2.37 currently is available for AmigaOS 4 and AROS/x86.

Changes:
  • Added a ContextMenu entry ("Open > Thumb") to open current displayed pic dir in LoViewThumb
  • Added a .info filter option to avoid LoView/LoViewThumb to load info files
  • Fixed some bugs
  • Added new prefs to Pop To Front LoView or LoViewThumb when sending thumbs/image from one to another task

Benedict Dziubaltowski obtained the permission of releasing version 1.8 of "RemApollo" which is a program archive written by Mikolaj Całusiński for Apollo accelerator boards with 68040 or 68060 processors.

Please note that the documentation was not updated. Therefore you will use this software at your own risk. The archive of version 1.8 includes an upgrade which requires RemApollo 1.7. RemApollo is a collection of tools which can copy the Kickstart-ROM to the Fast-RAM and there modify it for increasing the performance speed. (snx) (Translation: dr)
