AROS-Distribution AspireOS 1.9
Nikolaos Tomatsidis has published an update archive of a new version of his AROS-distribution AspireOS. Mainly this distribution was written for the Acer-netbook Aspire One and does completely support the Toshiba-notebook Satellite Pro A200. It should also run on other hardware but this is not officially supported.

Additional to updated system files the distribution includes now the word processing Cinnamon Writer as well as the MIDI-player Timidity. The sound output of the games Duke Nukem and Hexen 2 does only work with the updated files from the AROS-Archives because the AspireOS game archive was still not updated.

The media center AMC, an update of LoView as well as up2date are included as well. Additional to new wallpapers and other graphics AspireOS 1.9 can now play Youtube videos by clicking the little numbers which are below the videos.

Download: aspireos_upd_v1.9-i386.zip (84 MB) (snx) (Translation: dr)

A-Eon has been restructured and moved to Wales
A-Eon Technology, the company behind the AmigaOne X1000, was founded in 2009 as a CVBA ("Coöperatieve Vennootschap met Beperkte Aansprakelijkheid") - a cooperative company with limited liability. The company's main offices are located in Brussels, the main shareholders are Trevor Dickinson, Anthony Moorley and Ben Hermans (Hyperion).

For quite a while, there have been rumours that the company headquarters were about to be moved to Great Britain and that Ben Hermans and Anthony Moorley were no longer shareholders. On its recently redesigned website the company refers to itself as "A-Eon Technology Ltd.", according to Great Britian's company database it was founded two months ago and is headquartered in Cardiff, Wales.

The names of the shareholders are only available for a fee, but another well-known Amiga company is located in Cardiff: Leaman Computing Ltd., better known as Amigakit - the official X1000-distributor.

At director-check.co.uk, Matthew Leaman (Amigakit) is indeed listed as a director of A-Eon Technology, which indicates partnership in the company aswell. Trevor Dickinson's blog on A-Eon's website aswell as his behaviour on English Amiga portals suggest that he is still involved in A-Eon aswell. If the other founding members Anthony Moorley and Ben Hermans are still involved with the company is not known at the time of writing. (cg) (Translation: dr)

NetBSD: Mediator driver in development
The NetBSD port for Amiga computers has now a first support of the PCI-busboard of the model Mediator 1200.

Network boards based on NE2000 (e.g. Realtek 8029, pictureo) already can be used. Usage of the PCI mem-space and therefore graphics cards are in development. NetBSD is adapted to the hardware with reverse engineering. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Tips for Scandoubler Indivision MK2
André "Ratte" Pfeiffer has two tips for users of an "Indivision MK2" Scandoubler developed by Individual Computers:

Solution for vertical stripes in VGA-mode

Sometimes the new IndivisionMK2 creates vertical stripes in analog VGA-mode. This problem can be fixed with an analog VGA-cable (without DVI-I port + adapter) (more information).

The producer has warned of this solution because there is a danger that the used digital-analog converter may be destroyed. In any case, of the the described solution is used it will void the warranty.

Indivision MK2 as WB-accelerator

Just like the InivisionAGA the MK2 supports the modes HighGFX and HD720. Furthermore the MK2 for the first time can display the Xtreme Mode (1280x1024). For desktop computers without graphic board the most interesting mode might be the SuperPlus Mode. The solution is equal to the Super72 Mode (800x600) but twice as fast! For the Internet with "AGA only" it might be a good compromise concerning solution, colours and speed (more information). (cg) (Translation: dr)
