2005-07-31 ++ From the VOICE OS/2-eComStation News Service http://www.os2voice.org ++ From: Eugene Romanenko (Posted on comp.os.os2.apps) LimeWire 4.9.11 released - http://www.limewire.com/english/content/downloadfree.shtml Since version 4.9 LimeWire dropped support for Java 1.3.x and now requires Java 1.4.1 or higher in orger to run. Just tested it with Innotek JVM and Goldencode JVM. Looks like it have small problem with Innotek jvm - it sometimes dropped connections when OOB search enabled (OOB search can be disabled in limewire's settings). With goldencode jvm it runs just fine. Full changelog here - http://www.limewire.com/english/content/features_history.shtml - see 4.9.0 for main changes since 4.8. Enjoy! -- Bye, Eugene. http://eros2.by.ru Top
2005-07-31 ++ From the VOICE OS/2-eComStation News Service http://www.os2voice.org ++ From: "Peter Weilbacher" (Posted on: news://secnews.netscape.com/netscape.public.mozilla.os2 ) Hi all, I just made available my build of 1.7.11 on http://weilbacher.org/Mozilla/builds.html (you may have to reload the frame) which should fix all known security problems and the two issues with 1.7.10. As an experimental feature I also release an update package that contains all files that changed since 1.7.8. You should be able to just unpack it over an existing 1.7.8 installation, it worked here but it might not work in all cases on other machines. (As I didn't see much of a point in releasing a 1.7.10 myself I couldn't create an update from that version which would have been a much smaller download.) -- Cheers, Peter.

2005-08-03 ++ From the VOICE OS/2-eComStation News Service http://www.os2voice.org ++ From: "Eugene Gorbunoff" JUne can't save you from the summer heat. However it saves your money, nerves and time. JUne and JRescuer are aimed to undelete files from JFS volumes or recover files from damaged JFS volumes. An absolutely reliable file system hasn't yet been created. Filesystem reliability is a combination of fault-tolerance and availability of specialised software for FS fixing. Take JUne and Jrescuer to reach the maximum reliability. Whatsnew (JUne 2.00) * Added jrescuer mode, show/recover files from damaged volumes * Added ability to work with physical partitions (without drive letters) * View windows (file view/EA view) modeless now, if view window is visible and user select another record in container, window will be filled with new content * Filter button on toolbar, with indication of filter activity * Improved About dialog Please, send us stories of your success.

2005-08-05 ++ From the VOICE OS/2-eComStation News Service http://www.os2voice.org ++ From: Paul Smedley Hi All, I've just created a Warpin installation package for the Tame 1.00 executables, plus latest USB Sane, latest faxview, latest nconvert & usb drivers. This should help solve some of the confusion some people have had getting Tame + USB Sane to work. The installation package should automatically update any old versions of usbresmg.sys & remove any copies of usbscan.sys that can prove problematic. It will also update SANE_CONFIG_DIR to point to the tame\conf directory. I'd appreciate any feedback. Warpin file can be downloaded from http://smedley.info/sane.html Cheers, Paul. Top
2005-08-05 ++ From the VOICE OS/2-eComStation News Service http://www.os2voice.org ++ From: madodelDESPAM@DESPAMptdprolog.net "The aim of the UniAud project is the creation of universal audio driver based on ALSA project. Maintainers do NOT undertake a commitment to add new cards that are lacking support in ALSA project, but are going to refresh UniAud with latest ALSA sources as far as possible. Bugfixes for hardware specific code will correspond to ALSA fixes. Also, some nuances are possible, but in most cases we are going to proceed like this. Authors are planning to create new and unique API to make the usage of all resources and features of modern audio cards possible. API will use neither DART nor other exists OS/2's audio subsystems." "If you are aware of some new features that you would like to see implemented, or if you just would like to accelerate development you can always make a financial contribution or donation to UniAud on Mensys. http://shop.mensys.nl/uk/uniaud " There is a new update to the UNIAUD AC'97 sound driver on the Netlabs' FTP site: ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/uniaud/uniaud_latest.zip Change file lists: NOTE: UNIAUD API requires new LIBC from GCC get it from ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/wvgui/libc06r1.zip 01.08.2005 - Fixed ICH5 codec reset issues (Big thanks to Pasha's help) - Fixed DART sharing problems on one stream cards - A lot of ALSA fixes Main website: http://os2.kiev.ua/en/uniaud.php List of supported hardware: http://os2.kiev.ua/en/uniaud.cards.php Support forum: http://os2.kiev.ua/en/forum.list.php?f=6 Mailing lists: http://wiki.netlabs.org/index.php/Mailinglists Available lists: uniaud-dev - To subscribe, send an empty e-mail to: uniaud-dev-subscribe@netlabs.org uniaud-user - To subscribe, send an empty e-mail to: uniaud-user-subscribe@netlabs.org Top
