MorphOS: First public beta version of the SFSDoctor
Already on the 8th of January, a first public beta version of the repair program SFSDoctor was published by Marek Szyprowski (screenshot). Here, it concerns a SelfBounty project (reported by amiga-news.de), which can still be donated to.

In the meantime, the author has worked on the graphical user interface, so that he just has the filesystem-check module in front of him, as the last component. In addition, he is looking for a graphic artist for an appropriate icon.

Ars Technica: Matrox DualHead2GoTest on (among other things) a µ-A1
In an English test report of Jeremy Reimer about DualHead2Go from Matrox - a small external box which distributes the video signal from a graphics card to two monitors - a µ-A1 with AmigaOS 4 is used as one system beside others.

Coming to the point: the necessary EDID-standard ("Extended Display Identification Data") isn't supported by AmigaOS 4 yet, even with the upcoming update, but according to a comment from Hans-Jörg Frieden (Hyperion) it is already under work. (snx) (Translation: ts)

CD Player 2.1 for AmigaOS/AfA and MorphOS
#AmigaZeux released version 2.1 of Ilkka Lehtoranta's CD Player. The update includes a bug-fixed MorphOS version and does now also support AmigaOS/AfA (AROS for AmigaOS).

Requirements for MorphOS version are:
  • MorphOS 1.0
  • FreeDB 13.0
Requirements for AmigaOS/AfA version are:
  • AmigaOS 3.0
  • "AROS for AmigaOS" extension
  • 68020 + FPU
  • MUI 3.8
  • CGX 3
  • AHI 4
  • WBStart for AmigaAMP plugins
  • FreeDB 13.0
Due to a bug in AfA (or in AROS), initially one didn't get the button graphics correctly on AmigaOS. This bug is fixed meanwhile by a new graphics_lib.exe for AfA (Download, 83 KB).

Please note that the common name with the old program by Stian Olsen for the Amiga Overdrive CDROM has been by accident; there is no connection between them. (snx)
