WLAN-driver: prism2.device for free again
The previously commercial WLAN-driver prism2.device is now available for free with version 2.4. It can be usesd for PCMCIA-boards in Amiga 600/1200 or PCI-boards in Amithlon and AmigaOS-4 computers which are based on the Prism-II-chipset.
WPA as well as WPA2 encryption with TKIP and CCMP (AES) are supported. But not each hardware does support all modes. Boards with Intersil-chipset can access to WEP, TKIP and CCMP but Lucent/Agere-firmware only to WEP and TKIP.
The last mentioned boards have a hardware based TKIP-encryption. Please note that Intersil-boards for the WPA-encrayption require a new firmware. You can get further information as well as a list of supported WLAN-boards from the manual included in the archive.

MorphOS: Beta testers for OpenOfficeViewer required
Carsten Siegner wrote: I am looking for beta testers for my current project "OpenOfficeViewer". This project is about viewing four kinds of documents of the OpenDocument-standards: Office-Drawing, Office-Presentation, Office-Text and Office-Spreadsheet.
OpenOfficeViewer at least requires MorphOS 2.7.
What has been done?
- Ich have written three programming help tools which are to list the documents
- For the program "OpenOfficeViewer" the following tools were done:
- Which windows I could fill with data?
- The window with the metadata of the document
- The window with the statistics of the document
- The window with the render preview
What is still missing? I have to write the renderer. And the whole MUI-interface is missing. But compared with the renderer this is simple.
