| SW: ACPI 3.02 drivers on eComStation betazone |

From: Mark Dodel
"ACPI (short for "Advanced Configuration and Power Interface") is a
standard that defines power and configuration management interfaces
between an operating system and Hardware. It is meant to supersede
the older APM standard (for power management) and provide a generic
interface for recognition and configuration of hardware devices."

| SW: Larsen Commander for OS/2 now released as GPL Open Source |
2007-09-21
++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service http://www.os2voice.org ++
From: Leif Erik Larsen
Larsen Commander for OS/2 is now released as Open Source under the GPL (GNU
General Public License - http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.txt ).
The code base is exactly the same as that in the most recent public
milestone release (v1.6 Milestone #3), except Leif Erik Larsen has adjusted
it for the GPL copyright and stripped out all Windows specific parts of the
code.
You can get more information and download the OS/2 source from
http://home.online.no/%7Eleifel/lcmd/index.html or from Source Forge at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/lcmd where you also can browse the source
directly via http://lcmd.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/lcmd/
The Windows version of Larsen Commander is not released as Open Source by
now. Leif Erik Larsen will continue to develop Larsen Commander for
Windows. His plan is to port the current Windows code form C++ to C# on
..NET. Larsen Commander will then be available for both Windows, Linux and
Mac, and maybe also a .NET version for OS/2 if someone manage to port some
valid .NET runtime (such as Mono - see http://www.mono-project.com) to our
favorite OS. Only the time will show.
Anyway, the OS/2 version of Larsen Commander is now available as Open
Source, and anyone interested might participate in the further development
of it. Please contact Leif Erik Larsen via mail (
leifelDESPAM@DESPAMonline.no ) or web
(http://home.online.no/%7Eleifel/lcmd/index.html) if you are interested in
contributing.

| SW: Mr. Message (AIM client) update 9/22/2007 |
2007-09-23
++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service http://www.os2voice.org ++
From: Marty Amodeo
Mr. Message for OS/2 is an instant messenger client which is capable of
communicating over AOL's Instant Messenger network using the OSCAR protocol
(used in the Win32 AIM clients, jBuddy, gAIM, Kopete, ICQ, and a variety of
other clients).
It has been updated with the following changes:
* Fixed failure to log in when the buddy list is sent in more than
one part (long buddy list).
* Fixed potential small memory leak when unknown rendevous messages
are received.
* Fixed random corruption in incoming messages, caused by some portion
of leftover debug code. Incoming messages should be received reliably
again.
NOTE:
There may be a problem running with UniAud 1.14RC3. If you experience a
hang in Mr. Message, try running with the "-nosound" command line option.
I'm looking to get more information about this problem to see if I can work
around it.
To download, please visit the official Mr. Message web page:
