Poseidon USB Stack for Amiga Classic Update Version 4.3
« on: August 08, 2009, 02:37:38 AM »
Seven, eight, nine, kann denn das noch sein?

It can, and it is: I can give you more! The long awaited hot summer 07.08.09 release of Poseidon V4.3 for Subway, Highway, Algor and Deneb cards is finally available.

The Deneb USB 2.0 Highspeed board is still in stock, so if you want to benefit from the possibility of using USB Soundcards and the new UVC webcam class that comes with Poseidon V4.3, not to mention the speed of Zorro III (DMA) and the big flashrom, go ahead and get one at your local dealer. You don't want to wait for heaven!

A lot of bugs and glitches have been found, partially thanks to the AROS port.

There are two new classes: One for MosChip Ethernet adapters and one for webcams that make use the UVC (USB Video Class) standard and MJPEG frame data. The usbvideo.class provides a runtime VHI Studio driver.

If you're using your Deneb in an A3000 with Buster 9, please make sure that you install the new Romtag called "DenebBuster9IDTag" into your flashrom to use the DMA driver. Please read the supplied readme file for details. Also, after updating, make sure you're updating the contents of your flashrom aswell -- otherwise you will be getting mixed versions from flashrom and on-disk files.

I spent quite some time in getting out the new classes, and it all again is for free, but if you appreciate my work, please consider sending some gifts in from my Amazon wishlists -- it is greatly appreciated.

(UK) http://www.amazon.co.uk/registry/wishlist/3PC8WXDIDB4CZ

Poseidon V4.3 is available through the Trident online update and on my homepage http://www.platon42.de

Enjoy, have a good time.

Good to know work done for AROS is already of benefit to current Poseidon users :)

@yssing

Look at the top right corner of that page, there you'll find an english article about the reason for that page. And at the bottom you can continue to Chris' regular website.

It's a protest, especially since a new government will be elected in Germany in autumn. Just that it's unlikely that the election will change much, since german voters use to always choose the same set of established parties.

Well, it can be bypassed by using a proxy, the question is is there an alternative ? These things have been having a lot after them since the beginning of the internet and they allways dissapear here and appear there, warning the provider is not enouph either.
As for freedom, it depends on how it's implemented...

Chris, great job. I can now read and wrote to CF cards using my Sandisk adapter. But HDToolbox still doesn't see it as a
usbscsi.device - which means I can't format it on my A2500. Not a huge deal since I can use another Amiga to format the
card as a "real" scsi hard drive. Can't wait to see what other goodies may now work. Oh and love the comments in Trident.
I guess my popo kicks ass!  lol

You've got the 'Office Complete Series 1 & 2' dispatching soon from Amazon.uk. I liked the wish list idea... pretty cool.  

Thanks again for all your work. Great stuff!

  p.s. Reminded me to send the report on the cardreader with "debug" turned on this time! :-D

I'm a new Poseidon user (never had any Amiga USB card before) and it is a great piece of software. Great work, congratulations!

Just updated the deneb on the A4000T and it works great.

Thanks Platdon42, all my keyboard and mouse problems went away with this version.

Chris, what would it take to get a driver for a wireless USB Wifi card? Specifically, a
EDUP 54M?    :-)
