CD-Tools: First publishing of "3CaDo"
"3CaDo" is a collection of CD-tools which contains the following programs:
- ViCaDo supports you making
VideoCDs: With this program you can make (super-) VideoCD images.
- AiCaDo supports you making
AudioCDs: With this program you can make (MP3-) AudioCD images. This program is still
under development.
- DiCaDo supports you making
DataCDs: With this program you can make (ISO-) DataCDs. This program is still planned.
Christian Effenberger was not going to publish the sites. But because his Amiga has
currently some problems and Christian has not any access to the CD burner the development
of 3CaDo is highly questionable.
Because he do not know how long it takes until his computer works fine again he wants
to give the Amiga community that part which is already completed.

OS4: News on the progress by Thomas Frieden
In the forum of amigaworld.net, Thomas Frieden ("EntilZha") delivered insight into the current version of OS4 or on its progress, respectively. At the same time, a newly integrated feature was announced which - if anything proceeds well - would be shown this weekend as a surprise in France.
The main statements at a glance:
Graphics system:
"We're still working on the graphics system. The originally anticipated 2-3 weeks where of course 2-3 weeks of full-time work, but as always, something else comes your way and you have to rest some work and give priority to other..."
Drivers/PPC-Modules:
"Things are slowly falling into place now. A lot of people are currently working on AmigaOne drivers (that's one of the biggest projects, anyway). And of course, everybody is still working on bits & pieces. Browsing through the recent upload notification mails on our beta list, I see some new PPC-native datatypes, several bugfixes to existing components (most of them are PPC now), some new PPC modules (not a lot... did I mention that most of them are PPC now, anyway ? I think I have only 4 68k modules remaining on my work installation, one of them graphics.library)."
Kernel:
"One of the new "kernel" related features is a new ramlib (that's the component that is used to bring libraries into memory from disk): You might know that this is a prime candidate for crashing to do flakey library initialisation code. The new ramlib is now multi-threaded, meaning that the opening of libraries will be done in sub-processes. If one of those crashes, it's just removed by the mother process, improving system stability a lot.
Additionally, the latest exec includes a new memory tracking facility: You can now find out for each memory location if it's been allocated at all, and who allocated it. Very useful if you're debugging a program, or want to throw away all memory allocated by a given task." (snx)

Game: Tamar Needs a New Continent!
It is on us once more. In November 2003 the world of Tamar will contain a new continent. With 280 players the existing parts of Tamar have become full.
Every time this happens Tamar is expanded with further sections. This is an ideal time to jump in the game! Start with 20 to 50 other new testers, and struggle on the same terms in this part of Tamar.
The new territories will next be partitioned off from the other parts of Tamar, allowing the possibility of development independent of the old Lords. Who will be the victor? Who has the best strategy?
We're seeking free testers for Macintosh and PC.
By 15th November, a new version of the PC client that alleviates the slow start time will have appeared. The exact features may be read in the update text.
Tales of Tamar is a PBEM round-based online strategy game (PBEM =
Play By E-Mail) from Eternity, in which you take over the leadership of a people, in a manner similar to the games Kaiser and Civilization, and in which you compete in commerce, diplomacy, and battle to bring your land to riches and glory and honor. (nba) (Translation: dm)

Health: MouseBean Ergonomic Hand Rest
An independent study has shown that three
out of four computer mouse users suffering
from workrelated
upper limb disorders (WRULDs) and painful
hands and wrists, found their symptoms
alleviated after only two weeks of using
the MouseBean Ergonomic Hand Rest. This
is important
news for the increasing number of computer
users suffering from WRULDs and for businesses
losing millions of working days each year
when sufferers have to take time off work
to recover from
these disabling conditions.
The independent study was conducted by John Ridd,
a consultant ergonomist specialising in
workplace design and musculoskeletal disorders. A
mixed group of typical computer mouse users
with self-reported hand, wrist and upper limb
musculoskeletal disorders, tested the MouseBean
Hand Rest in an office environment.
After using the MouseBean Hand Rest for only two
weeks, three out of four users found it effective
at reducing the symptoms of WRULDs. At the end of
the test phase, 85% of subjects said that they
would choose to continue using the MouseBean Hand
Rest if they could. John Ridd concludes:
"The study would suggest that, for many mouse users
suffering with hand or wrist pains,
there is a very real likelihood of reducing those
symptoms within two weeks of using the
MouseBean Hand Rest."
The MouseBean Hand Rest is very different to regular
wrist rests - it uses two soft pads to support
the hand in comfort and the curved base lets you
glide on the mouse mat with a relaxed arm and
shoulder. The pads form a gap under the hand,
helping to reduce pressure in the wrist and
protect
the delicate median nerve from the dangers of
poor posture.
Commenting on the gel-filled wrist rests currently
on the market, John Crocker, managing director
of MouseBean Limited says: "Although they feel soft,
some gel-filled wrist rests may be doing
more harm than good! Research has shown that they
can actually increase pressure in the wrist and
lead to nerve damage! We believe that the MouseBean
Hand Rest is the first device of its kind to
have undergone a comprehensive evaluation and are
naturally delighted with the results of the
independent study. Whilst three out of four mouse
users suffering from WRULDs found their
symptoms alleviated, we have anecdotal evidence to
suggest that the device may be preventing the
onset of some symptoms as we have no reports of
customers developing new hand or wrist
conditions since fitting the device to their mouse.
In addition, the majority find it so comfortable to
use that they don't want to go back to using a mouse
without it."
The independent study shows that the MouseBean Hand
Rest is one of the simplest and most
effective ergonomic aids for mouse users; it converts
a regular mouse into an ergonomic mouse.
Available in a wide variety of attractive colours, the
MouseBean Hand Rest can be attached (with
the simple plug and socket device supplied) to most
regular mice. It can also be customised with a
logo or made to match corporate colours. To order, visit
the website under the title link and click `How to
Buy'. Retail price from £6.99. (nba)

Articia S: Genesi and Hyperion gave information about the supposed "Bug"
During a discussion at the thread "Pegasos Italia" at ANN Raquel Velasco and Bill Buck by Genesi as well as Ben Hermans by Hyperion gave detailed information about the supposed bug of the Articia S northbridge for the first time.
Genesi published during that discussion protocol with which the problem should be reproduceable:
The following problem is given with the current Articia S versions:
The CPU interface fails to make all needed PCI to Memory transactions transparent to the CPU. This leads to failed (missed) snoop responses from the CPU in case of a modified cache line. The result may be a data corruption. The problem can be verified by creating a huge DMA load to the system.
1) Create a Linux partition with reiserfs using the IDE channel
2) Create a Linux partition with reiserfs using a 1394 (firewire) drive
3) Create any Linux partition (any device possible)
4) Enable DMA for IDE using 'hdparm'
5) Copy some data ~1-2GB using 1) and 2)
6) unmount 1)+2)
7) run the 'reiserfsck' tool using an endless shell script for 1)+2)
8) Start a ftp of a huge file (>memory+swap) using 3) and calculate a checksum for that file using an endless shell script
Be sure that the L2 cache of the CPU is enabled during your tests. Watch the results.
Required Resources
1 - Red Hat Linux Distribution 7.x
2 - IDE Hard Drives
1 - PCI Firewire Card
1 - 1394 Firewire Drive
Notes:
Line 1) - One IDE Drive for the O/S
Line 2) - Needs PCI Firewire Card, 1394 Firewire Card and SW Drivers for same
Line 3) - Configure partition on additional IDE Drive
Requires 2 weeks minimum full time effort (probably 3 weeks) for someone with advanced Linux configuration setup and test expertise.
Hyperions answer to this is:
"This 'so called' problem is the direct result of the Articia S's ability to handle memory access by the CPU and PCI bus.
This behavior reduces latency but is unknown in the Wintel world which is why the Linux drivers don't cater for it.
In the Wintel world either the CPU or the PCI busmaster is allowed to write to memory, not both at the same time.
MAI has been reworking the Linux drivers to cope with this and Hyperion has been aware of this feature for quite some time and has taken it into account when doing DMA capable drivers for the AmigaOne hardware.

Poseidon: Unknown person spreads crack-instructions
As the author of Poseidon, Chris Hodges, informs on his website, someone spread instructions how to crack his USB stack on three mailing-lists yesterday.
According to Chris Hodges, this happened under the fake name "Dan Gaines" and, as a smokescreen, by using a freemailer in London as well as an anonymous proxy located in the UK. But the high amount of grammar mistakes in the posting would make it unlikely that this person was a native speaker. "Dan Gaines" would have been registered only a week ago, by which this seems to be a thoughtfully planned assault.
As the author states, the effects on the development of Poseidon are still to be considered - but the effect on his motivation would have been already devastating.
The further speculation by Chris Hodges regarding the background of this incident can be found on his website in the message from November 3. (snx)

ArakAttack - USB driver for Amithlon & OpenPCI
The ArakAttack demo version is now available. The demo version is time limited and much slower than the full version.
What is ArakAttack?
ArakAttack is an USB driver paket that allows the usage of USB on any AmigaOS
compatible system with PCI slots. ArakAttack isn't an USB stack, it's a driver
paket for Chris Hodges great USB Stack Poseidon.
What are the features of ArakAttack?
- Amithlon optimised version.
- OpenPCI compatible version.
- UHCI controller support. (incl. on board)
- OHCI controller support. (incl. on board)
- Unlimited number of USB controllers supported at the same time.
- Unlimited number of parallel USB transfers garantees maximum performance.
- Only one device with multiple units makes installation very easy.
- Intelligent transfer descriptor caching mechanism.
- Several user options allow an optimisation of resource management to the users requirements.
- Full mem handler support. (Frees resources and caches if the system signals low system memory)
- No HUB depth limits.
- Separate time out handling for each USB request garantees the driver never freezes the USB stack or the system.
- External interrupt fallback for systems with interrupt trouble.
What is also required to use ArakAttack?
The latest version of Chris Hodges' Poseidon USB Stack.
In addition to that other components are required:
Amithlon: powerpci.library - version 2.13 or better.
Amiga PCI / Pegasos: openpci.library - version V1.20 or better.
Which USB Controller is required for ArakAttack?
Most of the current USB controllers are supported. Just take care it's UHCI, OHCI or EHCI compatible. Well, you will have difficulties to find any other within the stores now.
Amithlon user may be happy to hear that on board USB controllers are working, too!
How can I register?
Well, currently the registration makes no sense, because ArakAttack is
quite useless without a registered USB Stack.
If you own a Poseidon key feel free to register. Further information can be
found in the manual.
PLEASE: Don't bother Chris Hodges with questions about registering Poseidon. He
is very busy at the moment, so please keep quiet until the registration site
will be up again.
