individual Computers: New drivers, higher shipping costs
individual Computers writes:
"Dirk 'Doj' Jagdmann has updated his
Linux-drivers for the Catweasel MK3 PCI/Flipper. In addition to
SID functions, joysticks and an Amiga keyboard is now supported.
The drivers, as well as the source codes, can be found on the
author's website: http://llg.cubic.org/cw/.
The Amiga One now supports our PCI POST code display. The diagnostic
tool shows valuable information during system startup that can be
debuggin-information for developers, or give hints for technicians
in case of a defect.
The cooperation with the development team of the Amiga One and Amiga
OS4 has also been intensified on another field: Parts of the source
code for the keyboard driver for the Catweasel MK3 have been given
to Hyperion.
We're especially happy to announce that individual Computers has found
a new distribution channel: The wholesaler APi has started selling
the PCI POST code display under article number 11008. Several
tenthousand PC-resellers and workshops now have an easy possibility
to get hold of this useful tool. APi does not sell to end users.
Deathbed vigil DVD in stock: The must-have collector's item, the
DVD-edition of Dave Haynie's movie about Commodore's demise and
lots of bonus material is available and in stock. It's a DVD+R in
NTSC video standard. All players convert automatically from NTSC
to PAL-60 if necessary. Since some stand-alone DVD players have
problems with DVD+R media, please check for compatibility before
you buy. In any case, the DVD can be played back with a PC. The
best thing: Each DVD has Dave Haynie's signature! Price: 39,- EUR.
Bad news at the end: The Deutsche Paketpost has informed us in
an automatic mailing that shipment cost will go up by more than
68% on March 1st, 2003. Therefore, we can only offer the special
domestic rates of 4,- EUR for pre-paid goods and 8,- EUR for
cash-on-delivery until the end of this month. Starting March
2003, we'll only ship with the Deutsche Paketpost in exceptional
cases, we're already negotiating with UPS and DPD/German parcel
service. International shipping rates are not affected." (nba) (Translation: nba)

Demo scene: Scene.org Awards 2002
This name is none other than an international jury who nominate the best demo
scene productions of the year 2002 and later determine the winner. The
nominations are not restricted to a computer platform, country of origin or a
certain party. Thus also demos created on the Amiga, C64, Gameboy Advanced, PS2
etc. can be nominated and awarded.
The sole requirement is that the demo was published in the course of last year.
The announcement of the winners and the award ceremony itself will be held on
the Breakpoint Party 2003. A
list of all nominations will be announced in the course of February on the
Awards Web site.

AmiChess: New version with increased playing strength
Under the title link there is a new version of AmiChess which has been
recompiled with StormC 4. Apart from some minor bug fixes, the WarpOS
version in particular has benefitted from the recompilation.
Calculation speed of the WOS version could nearly be doubled! Thus AmiChess
with the GNUChess engine is a match for "Crafty" (see Aminet), the chess
engine with currently the highest plaing strength!
I wish all chess friends a good time with the new version!

Sorry for the not so good sound quality but as the interview has a lenght of around 20 minutes
and I wanted to make it available to as many users as possible I had shrunk the file to the end lenght of appr. 6.15 MB (40 kb/s).
Soon there'll be a CD released containing an exhibition video and the interview in word and picture (I'm just doing the video cut). On the CD may be a little surprise (if the timing's good) - no more words about it right now. As soon as the CD's finished I'll tell you right here. Enjoy!

»msn.com prevents a correct view when visiting it with Opera browser
In a current message Opera blames msn.com delivering wrong style sheets to the Opera 7.0
to give the user the impression the Norwegian browser would not show the sites in a correct
way. Already in October 2001 there was an eclat because Microsoft had locked out users
with the browsers Opera, Mozilla and Knoqueror of the website msn.com.«

ReDesign of CD³²/CDTV-Corner planned - Help needed
We are looking for an experienced Web designer who can develop a new design for the
CD³²/CDTV-Corner.
Thorsten Schölzel
can answer questions via email.
Thorsten Schölzel: "The current design of the CD³²/CDTV-Corner is old-fashioned. With the
new design we want to present the sites more clearly and professionally.
Above all because it is the biggest homepage on the Internet which is for CD³² and CDTV.
I especially want to point out that the CD³²-Alliance is a non-profit business.
We invest our time and money. But we enjoy it otherwise we would not do it."

Inofficial MorphOS-Patch for IBrowse 2.3
Unofficial MorphOS version string patch for IBrowse 2.3.
IBrowse 2.3 falsely claims MorphOS system is using AmigaOS.
(Particularily misleading since MorphOS systems are reported as
running AmigaOS 4.0).
This is a crude hack that just replaces all "AmigaOS" strings with
"MorphOS", and "3.1", "3.5", "3.9" and "4.0" with "1.1" or "1.2".
Better solution should be provided by the IBrowse authors.
There is no warranty. Use at your own risk.

amiga-news.de: New Glossary
Under the title link you will find a newly formulated glossary, which is based on the old Internet-ABC. In order to tend the slogan designations better, Sven Drieling has put together a small databank that allows cross-connections to be made.
Whoever has suggestions for further concepts can send them in an email to Petra Struck or enter them here in the commentary function - if at all possible, with an understandable description of the keyword.
The glossary has been reachable for some time through the upper menu in the last row, in the second spot. The link had to be led through to the guestbook, which is also reachable through the footer. (ps) (Translation: dm)

Filesharing: DirectConnect Client for AmigaOS
Diego 'DCR8520' Casorran has ported DCTC ("DirectConnect Text Client") to the Amiga (see also today's report).
DCTC is a text-based client for the file-sharing network "Direct
Connect". An early beta version of Amiga-DCTC is ready for download.
Diego needs beta testers to support him in debugging the program.
More information about DC (DirectConnect) may be found on the website of the manufacturer publisher's website for the Windows version. Diego shows how one may get the initial results with DCTC. First you need a list of all usable HUBs:
run: hublist >ram:HubList
Each line of the list looks like this:
[DK]Moviezone©|moviezone.dyndns.dk|Min 60 GB. [MZ-Group]|507|||||
Next you pick out a HUB (in the above example "moviezone.dyndns.dk"),
additionally you must select a pseudonym and put in your IP Address (it should work with these minimal entries):
dctc --nick=YOURNICK -a=YourHost/IP --hubip=moviezone.dyndns.dk
If everything works, you'll now be connected to the HUB and the HUB will show a few bits of information (read it!) and now you may begin to send orders to the hub.
HINT: You might be banned for the HUB, when your combination of "Connection" and "Shared Bytes" is not meeting the standard. In such a case you should use the command "/CNX T3" to set the server to a higher connection speed ("Connection") or "/OFFSET 1234567890" to raise the "Shared Bytes" (the amount of the data you are offering).
Please BE SURE to read the supplementary documentation, and let us know your experiences with it.
Direct download: dctc-0.84.1.lha
[HINT: DCTC was unavailable on the master server (title link). The link for the direct download may in that case be accessed via a mirror]. (ps) (Translation: dm)

OS4 Team seeking Translators
As you can see in the title, translators for German and other languages are being sought for OS4, because the translation service ATO can't help in all areas. Other needed translations include: Bosnian, Croatian, Hungarian, Norwegian, Persian, Portugese and Swedish.
Whoever wants to help must sign an NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement =
silence stipulation) at Amiga Inc. Other requirements are an Amiga with AmigaOS 3.9 and Boing Bag #2 installed, and a PGP key of at least version 2.6.3 (or compatible).
Interested people should send an email to the coordinator,

Thomas Richter in c.s.a.p.: Further Developers Needed
Thomas Richter writes in the newsgroup comp.sys.amiga.programmer:
As you may or may not know, my Amiga "died" a few months ago and I decided to shelve all support for my Amiga software, starting with DiskSafe and ending with MuLib Packet. A new Maintainer must also be found, one who is interested in further developing all or part of my software. The terms are that the software must continue to be publicly available on terms simlar to the ones that I've established.
I will NOT agree, to release this stuff under GPL or LGPL.
The skills needed are C (ANSI-C) Programming for one half of the projects and advanced Motorola 68k Assembler for the other.
Additionally needed (naturally) an Amiga and a C-Compiler, possibly SAS/C, because the projects are based on this. And Motorola-Assembler, possibly the DevPac, because I used a lot of notes with the macro-functions. The
PhxAss is not sufficient for most Assembler-based projects.
The "earliest works" (not the MuLib Packet of course) are documented in German (...).
The sources are completely backed up and available and usable, because I was always a bit concerned about backups, and rightly so. Please send inquiries to my normal email address:
thor@math.tu-berlin.de.
So long and see you later!
Cordially,
Thomas
