TWAIN USB scanner support on eComStation & OS/2 - 6/24/06 (von NN) |
Solution Technologies, Boca Raton, Florida, United States Mensys B.V. ,
Haarlem, The Netherlands Paul Smedley, Greenwith, South Australia Solution Technology, Mensys B.V. and Paul Smedley have come to an agreement to work together to provide a solution for legacy OS/2/eComStation applications that use a TWAIN interface to control a flatbed scanner. TWAIN provides a standard interface that applications can use to control a scanner. All scanners currently supported on the OS/2/eComStation platform that have a driver with a TWAIN interface are legacy scanners with a SCSI interface. The result is that applications that ship with a TWAIN interface are not very useful anymore because modern scanners are not supported. Solution Technologies has provided the source code of its OS/2 TWAIN DDK so an interface can be built between SANE and TWAIN. The result will be that applications that access a flatbed scanner via a TWAIN interface will be able to utilize USB scanners with the aid of the open source scanner driver SANE. See: http://www.sane-project.org/ Kent Swan from Solution Technology: \"This agreement enables Solution Technology to keep supporting its corporate OS/2/eComStation customers with up to date scanner support. The OS/2 kernel provides very good multi tasking and stability, the reason why some our customers prefer to run our scanner solutions on OS/2/eComStation. In conjunction with this agreement and the development Serenity Systems is doing for the eComStation we can provide our customers with a solution to keep their critical business processes going.\" Paul Smedley from Australia and other developers have over the years been maintaining a port of the open source scanner driver SANE on the OS/2/eComStation platform. When a beta release is ready for release of the TWAIN<->SANE interface it will be included with all SANE builds for OS/2. Custom applications and well known eComStation/OS/2 applications like PMVIEW, Embelish, Star Office for OS/2 etc will be able to use SANE supported USB scanners. Future versions of eComStation will also ship with this package included in the TAME software (a program to use in conjunction with SANE). For corporate customers requiring support for there applications, please contact Solution Technology. -> Kommentare: 8 [ Version zum Drucken ] [ Per eMail versenden ] |

eCo Software newsletter, week 23 (von Eugene Gorbunoff) |
eComStation and OS/2 Warp platform are growing evolutionary. The current task is to attract new users. If we want achieve this, we should create more exceptional software based on particular technologies of our operating system.
The previous few weeks was dedicated to development of base drivers, update of WorkPlace shell applications, creation of auxiliary utilities and support of users. New and updated drivers: * New driver \"ACPI snooper\" is under construction. It is aimed to reconfigure IRQs, reload ACPI tables, etc. -- internal beta-version * Updated Power management driver APM.ADD v1.1 (requires ACPI.PSD v2.9) ** Improved batteries support; APM.ADD is able to switch computer to S1 state (weak sleep state) ** Download the driver from eComStation beta-zone (http://betazone.ecomstation.nl) ** Post bug-reports to ACPI forum (http://forum.ecomstation.ru/viewforum.php?f=19) Stable version of eSchemes * eSchemes is a system which allows change system colors, icons and WPS properties via scheme files (http://ecomstation.ru/eschemes) * Fresh eSchemes 1.26 is published in the eComStation beta-zone (http://betazone.ecomstation.nl) * Whatsnew: improved stability, WPS Hangs was fixed, Using external Scheme class. * We created scheme file format access SOM library. It can be used from any SOM-ready application (ObjectREXX, C, C++). * IconThemes and old schemes from Scheme palette are converted to eSchemes format. * A lot of various fixes in eSchemes editor. * More languages are supported. Personal cards manager product is approaching to public beta-testing * More internal beta versions * Here is the screenshot of Personal Cards Manager address book (http://ecomstation.ru/projects/wpperson/pics/PCM-AddressBook-20060615b.png) TCP/IP utilities * \"General network utilities\" (set of graphical tcp/ip utilities) are approaching to public beta-testing * New \"Firewall ports setup\", internal beta Updated toolkits: * SOM Compiler Pascal Emitter, several internal alpha versions eCo Software support service * The database of compatible hardware consists of 870 reports. Post your report about supported video-adapters (http://ecomstation.ru/hardware.php) * eComStation/Rus FAQ is updated: more records in section for Developers (http://ru.ecomstation.ru/ecsfaq/faq.php?idc=14, russian text) * ACPI FAQ is updated (http://ecomstation.ru/projects/acpitools/?action=faq) Collaboration with other developers: * One more update of WarpOverlay! video-overlay from LightElf (http://ecomstation.ru/projects/happyplayer/?action=down) * To support our multimedia applications we initiated the development of CRC (Central Remote Control). The program gathers events from remote controls, notebook buttons, USB-keyboard multimedia buttons and translates them to commands for multimedia applications. Please, download test utility (http://ecomstation.ru/projects/ecocrc/download/usb-mmkbd-test.zip) if you have USB keyboard with multimedia keys and run some tests (by Dmitry Frolov) How to help to eCo Software: * eSchemes is a eComStation 2.0 component. Nevertheless, it requires your support. You can purchase sponsor units in the Mensys shop (http://www.mensys.net/eSchemes). Mention the purpose of the payment. -> URL: http://betazone.ecomstation.nl -> Kommentare: 0 [ Version zum Drucken ] [ Per eMail versenden ] |

GenMac News (von NN) |
- the list of supported devices is still growing, we know that we didn\'t
update the public driver for some time but we hope to do that very soon - support for nForce 5 should work but we don\'t have hardware to test. If someone got that, please let us know - Willibald is currently working on USB device support, both wired and wireless NICs. It looks quite good but there are still open issues so no release yet for that, but we would like to know which device you are using. So we try to gather a list of devices again, as usual please provide: * the vendor name * the vendor & pci-id * the win32 device driver. - WPA: Genmac supports all we need to have WPA support, the \"only\" thing we have to do is bring wpa_supplicant to the most recent level and integrate it in XWLAN. I hope we get somewhere soon regarding this -> URL: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.org.netlabs.genmac.user/369 -> Kommentare: 4 [ Version zum Drucken ] [ Per eMail versenden ] |

A relaunch of the Gaming Site using the Joomla CMS script (von NN) |
We had relaunched the OS2World.com Gaming Site using the Joomla CMS script.
Now I will be able to update the site in a more dinamic way. All the games of the old site had been migrated to this script and fixed a lot of dead links. I also enhanced the Java and Odin games section, hoping that it will grow on the future. Plus I had added a new Emulation section that will eventually replace the OS/2 Emulation Site. Let me know if I\'m missing any game or any other Java and Odin game that you want to add on this site. Any other help will be welcome too (like a little help with the Xfree86 games) -> URL: http://www.os2world.com/games -> Kommentare: 0 [ Version zum Drucken ] [ Per eMail versenden ] |

First Screenshot OpenOffice.org 2.0 (von warpspace) |
OpenOffice.org 2.0
Fixes and updates will be delivered over the term of the agreement as part of the on-going support. For example, the initial support for OpenOffice.org Version 2 will not include WorkPlace Shell (WPS) integration. Plans call for WPS integration to be supported in one of the first updates for 2.0. As implied by this statement regarding WPS integration support, the Version 2 product supplied under this agreement will be a native OS/2 application. The Suggested Retail Price of the Support Agreement is $49US for 12 months. Registered users of the current OpenOffice.org product for eComStation and IBM OS/2 will be able to purchase the Support Agreement for $29US. -> URL: http://www.ecomstation.com/openoffice.phtml -> Kommentare: 0 [ Version zum Drucken ] [ Per eMail versenden ] |
