`30.Jun.2026` Christian 'xeno74' Zigotzky	Linux: Debian PPC64 installation images for AmigaOne Christian 'xeno74' Zigotzky took advantage of the hot weather to create and release a new Debian PPC64 installation image for AmigaOne systems. New to this release is a base disk image of Debian Sid PPC64, which he first created in a virtual PowerMac G5 QEMU environment and then adapted for AmigaOne hardware. Additional software from the MintPPC64 repositories has also been integrated. The image boots under QEMU 9.2.3. GRUB installation and system startup work in the virtual environment, the network is up and running, and the image also boots via CFE on the AmigaOne X1000. The download and further information are available on GitHub. (nba) [News message: 30. Jun. 2026, 14:36] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]
`29.Jun.2026`	Word processing: AmigaOS version of FinalWriter 7.3 available As announced at the beginning of June, version 7.3 - an updated version of the FinalWriter word processor for AmigaOS 3.1 - is now available, two years after the AROS version was released. For the equivalent of around 44 euros, users receive a new spell-checker, improved support for multilingual environments, updated RTF support, native PDF output and direct printing via FTP/IPP. Updates and bug fixes are also included until the next version is released. A 68020 CPU is the minimum requirement, but a 68040 or 68060 CPU and a graphics card are strongly recommended.

`29.Jun.2026`	Telegram Amiga client 0.0.3 Version 0.0.3 of the open-source Telegram client developed by Michele 'kaffeine' Dipace for AmigaOS 3.x, AmigaOS 4, AROS (x86) and MorphOS. Whilst version 0.0.2, according to the developer, “marks the move from protocol proof-of-concept toward a more complete text messaging client for the Amiga family” and adds scroll-back history, a chat search function and persistent bookmarks for unread messages, version 0.0.3 "focuses on something more conversational: making the chat window feel less like a protocol demo and more like an actual messaging client. The main addition is native replies. In TelegramGUI you can select a message and send the next text as a real Telegram reply, not just as a local quote. The release also adds drawn delivery checkmarks, flicker-free painting through double buffering, a button to return to the newest message and clearer human-facing packages, now with a version-specific README.txt inside each archive."

`29.Jun.2026`	ZZ9000 Graphics Card: Firmware and driver version 2.2.0 Lucie L. Hartmann's ZZ9000 is a graphics card with additional ports (network, USB, SD card), which is available in various configurations (amiga-news.de reported). Blitter Studio has now released version 2.2.0 of the firmware and drivers. The new firmware release adds the SDK-service firmware that the ZZ9000 SDK v2 builds on, on-card cryptographic acceleration, a cold-boot fast-RAM fix, and a wave of reliability hardening. The new driver release bundles the new ZZ9000 SDK v2 runtime and per-CPU accelerated AmiSSL into the installer, and adds GUI/CLI firmware-update tooling.

`29.Jun.2026`	Amiga emulator written in Rust: Copperline 0.9.0 (update) "Copperline" is an Amiga emulator written in Rust. Originally developed with the sole purpose of running or testing DiagROM, the program can now also handle complex and timing-critical software. Version 0.8.0 now features a graphical user interface and a launcher, which appears if no command-line options are used. In addition, plugins for external Zorro cards and network support for the A2065 have been added, and numerous fixes have been implemented. As the developer notes, "it remains a hardware-behavior release: compatibility fixes model the underlying Amiga subsystems rather than individual titles." Update: (29.06.26, 20:08, dr) Version 0.9.0 brings a large 68881/68882 FPU accuracy pass, explicit joystick input selection, no-ROM save-state startup, hard-disk volume-name overrides, and another round of CIA, Paula, keyboard, Denise, sprite, bitplane, RTC, and display-timing fixes.

`29.Jun.2026`	System information: xSysInfo 0.9.0 xSysInfo is a comprehensive system information program for AmigaOS. It provides detailed insights into the Amiga system's hardware and software configuration as well as benchmarking features (amiga-news.de reported). The main focus of version 0.9.0 was on "compatibility, benchmark stability, and cleaner UI refresh behavior. It improves Kickstart 1.3 support, avoids several requester and library-version traps, makes fast-system benchmarks more stable, and reduces unnecessary redraws."
