YAM project looking for web designer for future community site
The known project (email program) is looking for one or more motivated web respectively graphics designer(s) who'd be preparded to build in cooperation with the developers of YAM a completely new support site for the future community site on the basis of the PHP framework XOOPS.
The support site that is accessible under http://www.yam.ch/ has come to an age that makes it necessary to create a completely new and usable support site to be prepared for the future work on YAM.
Interested ones should already know PHP and the XOOPS framework and they should also already have some graphical abilities in designing new signs and know complete web design. It's of course possible to install a team to share design and administration with several persons.
A powerful server with an installed test version of XOOPS is available waiting for adaption and web design to become the new YAM site.
The new community site will then come next to features like latest YAM news and a comprehensive online FAQ with online forums and direct downloads of daily updated compilations.
If interested write to Jens Langner@light-speed.de.

Anti-Virus-Software: New Version 1.00 of VirusZ III
After six years Georg Hoermann has had the development time to release the final version of VirusZ III and thereby throw off the designation of "beta status." You'll find the new version 1.00 of VirusZ III on the VHT website under the title link, and in a few days it will be on Aminet.
Program name: VirusZ III v1.00
Programmer: Georg Hoermann
Date: 19th February, 2004
Archiv name: VirusZ.lha
Archiv size: 102,556 Bytes
Requirements: AmigaOS 2.04 or higher, util/libs/ReqToolsUsr.lha,
util/virus/xvslibrary.lha, util/pack/xfdmaster.lha, util/arc/xadmaster.lha
(recommended), util/libs/DisLib.lha (optional)
News in VirusZ III v1.00:
- Improved 'Snapshot' function of the vectorcheck, it now saves the
information supplied by SegTracker. So please install SegTracker
before doing snapshots, it helps me a lot!
- Finally fixed VirusZ 100% for MorphOS/Pegasos systems:
- a) The vector check now handles function calls using EmulLibEntry
correctly and calculates "ROM" locations and sizes in the most
compatible way by scanning system romtags and afterwards calling
NewGetSystemAttrsA().
- The memory monitor has been fixed for fake chipmem on Pegasos
and supports MorphOS "ROM" areas too. There's just one problem
left with pre-50.58 exec.library: size of A-Box modules cannot be
calculated perfectly here and will simply be set to 0x700000. This
means that you might be able to access non-existing memory areas at
addresses near 0x10800000! This is on your own risk...
- The internal
doslist scanner (for sector check/bootblock lab) works without
MEMF_24BITDMA memory now which was never available on MorphOS systems.
The code for 64-bit access (>4GB) has been bug fixed and enhanced to
support TD_READ64/TD_WRITE64 too.
- Rewritten startup code to use
EasyRequestArgs() in case of an error instead of DisplayAlert() which
is not available in current MorphOS versions. Thanks to Harry Sintonen
for all his help with MorphOS topics and for beta-testing! And thanks
to Alexey Ivanov, Ilkka Lehtoranta and 'Vinny' for beta-testing too.
- Fixed problems in sector check concerning 4GB-border. Added some
recalculation routines for strange values in de_BlocksPerTrack.
Additionally de_MaxTransfer is supported now for older HDs.
- Removed the 'Use/Ignore External Xad-Slaves' selection from the
file check prefs. This was obsolete as xadmaster.library always
requires external clients to do a good job.
- Finally added support for disk archives and disk images to the
file check. Please note that xadmaster.library v8+ is required!
Now you can extract all types of archives that XAD supports, and
if they contain disk images with valid files inside, these files
will be checked too. Two new options therefore have been added to
the file check prefs: "Extract Disk Archives" and "Check Files
Inside Disk Images". Please read the docs for more information!
Thanks to Dirk Stöcker for beta-testing and his helping hand
concerning tricky XAD stuff.
- Added extra check for bootblock viruses to sector and file check
(for files larger than 2048 bytes, usually diskimages).
- Added sector checking for files! You can select 3 different modes
in the filecheck prefs, please read the docs carefully for further
information...
- Added 'Scan Files For Bootblocks' to the file check prefs. With
this option enabled, VirusZ scans for bootblock viruses inside
files. Useful to detect unknown bb-virus installers.
- Changed/enhanced functionality of the 'Job Monitor':
- 'Pause'/'Continue' gadgets have been replaced by a single cycle
gadget to stop/run the current job. b) 'Quit' gadget is always active
now (requested by many users).
- All running/waiting jobs will be
displayed in the report list now so you get a better overview. You can
select any of them and kill them with the 'Kill Job' gadget. Useful if
you accidentally have selected some wrong files/disks.
- Added 'Check
Files...' gadget. It obviously does the same as the equally named menu
item of VirusZ's main window, but you won't have to switch windows any
more.
- Added 'One/All' cycle gadget between 'Disinfect' and 'Delete'
as it determines the behaviour of both functions. If 'One' is selected,
everything works like in previous versions. By selecting 'All', the
delete function will delete all malicious files that have been found so
far. 'Disinfect' first determines the type of the selected item
(infected file or sector?) and will then start disinfecting either all
files or all sectors of the selected disk. Requested by 'Underground
God', hope you are happy now :)
- Bumped version of VirusZ III to 1.00 !!! After 6(!) years of often
little development and much more lack of time VirusZ III finally
has reached full functionality...

Intel announces AMD64 compatible processor
"Other way around now" seems to be the new agenda: While AMD's 32 bit x86
processors are compatible to the Intel standard the latter company has announced a 64 bit extension
compatible to AMD's 64 bit technique now. Thus a good chance is given that the 64 bit desktop
processors by both companies will be compatible to each other. Currently Intel keeps the
32 bit concept within this area and plans to implement the AMD extension initially to
their workstation and server processor Xeon only.

"IOSPIRIT continues to further improve its customer service. The latest
results of these efforts are two new functions now available to the
customers in their account:
My updates
In a central spot, the customer now finds all update- and bonus-files
relevant to the products ordered or registered online.

IOSPIRIT now offers account-owners (whether customer or not) the
possibility to read and take part in forum-based discussions via their

Text editing: "microgolded" released
microgolded is a simple yet powerful editor for AmigaOS, MorphOS and UAE.
It is a low cost variant of GoldED AIX, designed for basic editing tasks. The editor is released in form of a single executable, for placement in the system's c folder. microgolded is the ideal editor for the boot CD of your OS because it does not need to be installed: it does not need an assign, catalogs, custom libraries etc. It will run even if the AmigaOS startup-sequence is not functional.
microgolded is only available online for instant download (pay securely via paypal). The retail price is 10 EUR. On the launch day, the special retail price is only 5 EUR if you go to this page.
You can download a 30-day trial version here.

Public test of the GAUHPIL database
The GAUHPIL (Geographical Amiga Users Home Page Internet List) is a list
created and moderated by Dietmar Knoll containing websites of Amiga users
sorted by continents and countries. Right now, the GAUHPIL is migrating to
a MySQL based database solution.
Under the title link, you can find a description of the current state of
things and of course a link to the current draft. Meanwhile, the database
functions are in a state that the database could be used. The latest
additions are the New Links List and the Lost Links List.
The moderator invites you to thoroughly test all functions, especially the
registration of new entries, and send him your feedback about all
malfunctions and any strange behaviour.
Currently, the GAUHPIL contains 867 users in 38 countries.

AmigaOS4: news about the beta version
Hans-Jörg Frieden of Hyperion gives in a forum contribution on amigaworld.net a short overview about the current stand of developing regarding the AmigaOS4 beta version. We have summarized the essentials for you.
After the beta version had been given to the testers there had of course some minor problems to be solved. More difficulties came only from to things: for one had CD-ROM drives not reliably been recognized by the appropriate device - this problem is said to be solved in the meantime.
The other problem that is still being worked on is occurs just on a little number of configurations and is described by the OS4 team as "hot air effect" - there's a slight display distortion when using a Radeon graphics card in certain display resolutions similar to movements of heated air above hot asphalt. Nevertheless does the Radeon driver work, there are hints to the reasons of this effect and they hope to solve this problem soon.
Right now there's support for a bunch of ATI cards respectively for cards with ATI chips, so does the Radeon 9800 now work with the drivers developed by Forefront Technologies.
In another contribution gives Hans-Jörg particular emphasis on the fact that the 3D support for Radeon cards is by now restricted to the 7xxx series. It wouldn't make sense to get a Radeon 8xxx or 9xxx because of the 3D performance, there's still a long way to go until the according drivers will be available.

Eyetech: updates and announcements
The AmigaOne distributor Eyetech has started the rework of his web appearance and put some announcements and updates online:
"EarlyBird" offer discontinued
The "EarlyBird" offer, where the buyers of an AmigaOne don't have to pay for AmigaOS4 and get it delivered by the time of its release, ends on March, 31st 2004. The last amount of AmigaOne-XE computers that will be delivered as "EarlyBird" has already been manufactured. Delivery as long as stock lasts.
Preproduction-MicroA1 in small numbers available, pictures of the new revision
A first number of MicroA1 motherboards (AmigaOne in Mini-ITX format) has been produced. These are identical with the planned specifications for the sales version besides the missing slot for "enhanced I/O interfaces" and the not existing onboard memory. The until now produced devices are exclusively for retailers and developers who want to demonstrate the computer to potential (bulk) buyers or who want already begin with the porting of specific software. The specifications of the now available MicroA1 computers are as follows:
- Size: 17cm x 17cm x 3.5cm high (excluding PCI riser card)
- CPU Module: 8cm x 8cm standard AmigaOne module - 750Fx @ 800MHz
- Memory: Single socket SODIMM. 256MB PC133 CL3 supplied
- Graphics: Radeon 7000 series, 32MB non-shared memory on board
- BIOS: Uboot 1.0.0 socketed, with OS4 enabling code
- Southbridge: VIA 82 2C686B
- Ethernet: 10/100 with 3COM 920-ST06 controller
- Sound: Cmedia CMI8738 6 ch controller
- IDE: 44 way (2.5") and 40 way (3.5") connectors UDMA100
- Legacy I/O: Parallel, 2 x PS/2, game/MIDI sockets
- Video I/O: 15 pin SVGA, SVHS (miniDIN), composite video (RCA)
- Sound: 3.5mm mike, aux and speaker jacks
- Fast I/O: RJ45 10/100 ethernet, 2x USB1.0 ; 2 x USB1.0 headers
- PCI: PCI-32 slot expandable to 3 x slots via a suitable riser
Pictures of the new motherboard revision are also available. A special case for the MicroA1 has been built in a small series, too, pictures of it can be found here and here.
Eyetech's website gets an overhaul
To do the change from an Amiga retailer to a PPC motherboard distributor justice, Eyetech's website will be reworked step by step. The webshop will continue to exist for now but Eyetech will only clear existing stocks and charge a fee on small orders. The delivery times for "Classic Amiga" products will become up to two weeks as the articles are now stocked external in a warehouse.

Back to the Roots: Emulators History Project
We want to announce a new service which we started at BTTR, the "Emulators History Project" located at emulators.back2roots.org.
At this location we start to collect source code and binaries of all Amiga emulators ever released. We start with the WinUAE emulator history, other emulators to come later.
All emulator versions online can both be downloaded or browsed, which may be helpful for coders working on any Amiga emulator or emulator supporting/addon projects.
It's a difficult task to find all versions ever released, especially when it comes to the source code (which never had a version in its filename - urghh), that is why we want to ask you for your help to get the collection complete! Please have a look at the current collection of WinUAE files and help us find all missing files (which are marked as red cells): http://emulators.back2roots.org/winuae.
Thanks in advance for your time and contribution. (snx)

Interview with the developer of "Mattathias BASIC"
Michael Ness developes a new BASIC dialect that seems to be heavily inspired by
AMOS. The compiler will be available (among others) for AmigaOS3,
AmigaOS4, MorphOS and Windows. The first version will produce easily portable code and is therefore restricted to the creation of programs without a graphical users interface. Graphics, sound etc. will be supported later via extensions similar to the AMOS "Extensions". Under the title link you can find an interview with Michael Ness.

RekoNet offline
The "RekoNet" server that had offered a comprehensive collection of card sets for the Solitaire card game "Klondike" had to be taken from the net. Because of the high demand for storage and bandwidth and the partly erotic offering it's hard for the providers to find a replacement.
To make the card set collection further online available and also to continue the already started expansion of the offer on other card formats and Solitaire programs are the providers have to rely on small donations. An amount of almost 300 EUR would cover the costs for the next two years.

New KickFlash-OS4 Update
As Coyote Flux announce, there are new versions available of the KickFlash OS4 Firmware and the CoyoteFlash tool.
CoyoteFlash is a program that has been developed for the Individual Computers KickFlash OS4 Card. It allows full management of the flash card and can install AmigaOS ROM Updates and other modules on machine startup. This allows booting of an OS 3.5 or higher system without any resets involved. More information about this project is available on the Individual Computers website.
Changes of the new version:
- Now works with any resident modules
- Supports multiple modules in one file
- Supports the OpenOXYPPort command for OxyPatcher 3.13, just add the file and it will be installed on bootup
- Supports the last BoingBag 2 AmigaOS ROM Updates. Since our main developer machine broke down, it was hard to test the compatibility with other systems. Please give us some feedback!
- New advantages are that you can install AmigaOS ROM updates with different modules. For example, you can install all the updates except scsi.device and use a different scsi.device as a seperate module.
- Should work with some of the PrepareEmul like programs, but has not been tested intensively yet. Please let us know if it works...
- The NOROMUPDATE command is no longer needed for Setpatch, it should detect the install automatically now.

First version of Arjuna, new Windows drivers for Catweasel
Arjuna is a modular, expandable solution to access floppy disks from many
different systems. It supports the Catweasel controller to read and write
formats not compatible with the standard PC controller. Arjuna is written in
C++ and uses Qt for its GUI. The project by Christoph 'Doc Bacardi' Thelen
now has its own homepage and a mirror on our webspace. The first version 0.6beta is available for download there.
Arjuna is a project that reaches very far into the past, digging deep into
almost forgotten knowledge about data storage. At the same time it focusses
on the future as a universal tool for data restauration and conversion. Hoping to find a lot of developers to contribute floppy disk formats, Christoph is trying to make this a Sourceforge project.
The Windows version of Arjuna needs an updated driver for the Catweasel to work properly. Download this version here (87 KB, experimental). (snx)

First draft of the GAUHPIL data base online
The GAUHPIL (Geographical Amiga Users Home Page Internet List) is a list created and moderated by Dietmar Knoll containing websites of Amiga users sorted by continents and countries. Right now is the GAUHPIL migrating to a MySQL based database solution. Under the title link you can find a description of the current state of things and of course a link to the first draft.
The start page is now localized into German/English. New are the lists for each single continent. The users can be found as before sorted in alphabetical order below their countries, in addition you can now query single countries or search for single terms.
Things to do are a form for entering new links, a form (with password request) for changing existing links, a dynamic list of new links and a dynamic list of lost links.
For now, the GAUHPIL contains 867 users in 38 countries.

Video Toaster Flyer: Source Code Released
On www.openvideotoaster.org the source code for the Video Toaster Flyer by NewTek has been released as a gift to Amiga users. Previously Amiga Video Toaster Flyer Character Generator and Toaster Paint had been released.
Newtek was founded in 1991 by Tim Jenison and partners. Their Amiga Video Toaster enabled the production of video at drastically lower prices than the studio equipment that had been available until that time. In 1994 came the Newtek Video Toaster Flyer, tapeless processing hardware.
With this gesture by Newtek, opening the source code, the world doesn't just get the first video production system in a box. It gets the first open source realtime video processing system for the Amiga.
The Amiga Video Toaster Flyer Character Generator supports among other things Postscript, Real-time Scrolls, and professional-quality crawls and titling of live or pre-taped videos and static pictures.
ToasterPaint is a 24-Bit paint program with tools for drawing, coloring, tinting, blending, and warping of pictures. (snx) (Translation: dm)

The version 2.4.22-8 works so far, but voodoo fbdev is not integrated yet, the radeonfb should work. There is also an image available for a network install. That one does not work with Voodoo gfx cards yet - Radeons should work without problems.

The previous version didn't work with Directory Opus 5.82 Magellan II, since this program adds a slash mark to the end of each path. This is filtered now by SearchStar v0.81. Also memory is freed faster now. (snx)
