AROS x86_64: Version 2026.09 of the ABI-v11 developer branch
Press release: In April 2025 AROS user community started a project aimed at migrating from legacy 32-bit AROS system to a modern, 64-bit base system. Today, with the release of AROS ABIv11 2026.09 this migration is completed!

This new relase brings many improvements, including new recommended hardware, USB3 support and refreshed NVidia 2D and 3D drivers. Most of the essential software has already been ported to 64-bit during the migrations period. Latest software can be found on AROS Archives. For software that could not be ported, this release comes with integrated emulator for running legacy 32-bit applications.

Today's release is a base system release. New versions of AROS user facing distributions (AROS One, AROS.games, AROS Portable, TinyAROS) are already in progress of being build and should be available soon! (dr)

Email client: AmiMAIL 2.0.2 for AmigaOS 3.2 (and 4)
In mid-August, Andreas 'Andiweli' Stürmer released the first version of AmiMAIL, a new IMAP/SMTP email client for AmigaOS 3.2. The current version 2.0 incorporates numerous changes and improvements: it now supports up to five accounts, each of which can have its own signature set. The HTML email converter now works much more accurately and has been trained using various emails. The menu has also been expanded.


Attachments can be saved easily, and emails to which you reply now have the correct ‘Answered’ flag set, so that they are marked with a ‘replied to’ arrow in other IMAP clients, such as Thunderbird. AmiMAIL itself currently indicates this with a note at the bottom of the window.

Although the developer wrote his email client specifically for AmigaOS 3.2, our own extensive tests show that it runs just as reliably and stably on AmigaOS 4.1, meaning that there is now once again an extremely user-friendly and easy-to-use IMAP client available for both branches of the operating system.

Alinea Computer: Recent developments over the past few months and an outlook
Press release: We have released numerous new products for the Amiga in recent months and would like to briefly summarise them in this announcement. We also wish to provide an outlook on future developments.

Already released:
  • Power Hub for floppy drive power cables
    The Power Hub is a splitter with 4 additional sockets for floppy drive power cables, designed to supply power to internal hardware within the Amiga.
  • Rear panel for Amiga 1200
    This aluminium rear panel (1 mm thick) is intended as a replacement for the old aluminium sheet on the Amiga 1200. The backplate stabilises the sockets and fills the gaps.
  • Amiga 1200 LED backplate / WLED controller
    When used in conjunction with the WLED controller, the LED backplate allows the Amiga 1200 to be illuminated, with the lighting controlled via a browser or a mobile app over Wi-Fi.
  • Langley 1200/500 Adapter
    The Langley 1200/500 Adapter is a multifunctional adapter for the Amiga 1200/500. Currently, it can be used to switch the KickROM flash via the keyboard and to record and replay keyboard inputs.
  • Serial to USB-C Adapter for Debugging
    The adapter allows the serial output of the Diagrom (Debug-ROM) to be transmitted to any serial client running on Windows, Linux, AmigaOS, etc.
Planned for the future:
  • Langley 600
    Same functionality as the Langley 1200/500
  • Firmware update for all Langley models
    The firmware will be updated for all Langley models over the coming weeks. For example, it is intended to work in conjunction with the WLED controller so that you can switch the lighting on and off via the keyboard and do not always have to reach for the WLED mobile phone.
  • Back panel for Amiga 500 with and without LEDs
    This back panel will also be made of aluminium, but will be designed to fit the Amiga 500. Just like the current A1200 version, it will feature 30 LEDs.
  • Adapted version of the WLED controller for the Amiga 500
    As with the back panel with and without LEDs, the WLED controller for the Amiga 500 will also be adapted so that it can be securely fitted inside the case.
