New workspace and Ascii the Cat
It has been a busy couple of weeks. First I have been working hard to make my new Mac Mini the way I want it by cleaning it up extensively after restoring my backup. But now it’s pretty much done.

MorphOS 3.9 and SDK 3.9 released
In case you haven’t noticed it yet, MorphOS 3.9 is out since yesterday. This is a typical bugfix release, so there isn’t much news here (except for an update of OpenSSL). You can read the release notes here and download the ISO here.
The is also an updated SDK (Software Development Kit) which contains improvements. You can also download it from here.

When things break down
Early last week I started to have problems with my G5. While it always had a slight tendency to get stuck in “gray screen” (early open firmware) it now started to get stuck in “black screen” (no HD bootup). First day it happened once before work, at the same time it started to get random system freezes. Then I had to restart three times after work (and more freezes). Next day it took some 1o tried before work and after work it didn’t react anymore. It was dead and the “usual suspects” like resetting PRAM and switching HDD to a Mac did absolutely nothing.
MorphOS 3.8, Synergy Server and Wings Battlefield Demo
After 9 months of development version 3.8 of MorphOS was finally released on Friday the 15th. Just by looking at the release notes you will see an impressive list of news, bugfixes and improvements. But since I’m a betatester I have been enjoying these improvements for quite some time now, so for me this is more a conclusion rather than something new and exciting.
Wings Battlefield (more stuff)
Daniel asked me to show how the game looks like with more mountains, so I added that to my latest blog post:
Wings Battlefield
In my last blog post I described that one of the perks of being part of a small community is the ease in getting to know the important people. Last time it spoke about the porting wiz Szilárd “BSzili” Biró. This time it’s Daniel Müßener, also known as Daytona675x.

LÖVE (the missing parts)
I somehow missed the Portal game part of Mari0, which I’ve now added. I suggest you read that part or you will not know the game in it’s full glory. Click on the link below:
