Poseidon USB stack open source

[soviet]

Hi i like to know what happened to poseidon, it was opesource almost a year ago, theres any version compiled for 68k amigas ?, because i like to get usb working on amithlon but i am unable to find any information about this.

Yeah, was an AROS bounty a few years ago to release sources under APL for $5000, which was met.
Its not as simple as a recompile though, especially for amithlon.

theres any version compiled for 68k amigas ?

Yes, the regular version (4.4 was the latest as I recall) works on 68k Amiga's (although I have a lot of problems with it and my Thylacine, I know it works successfully for many other users).
 
Weird, it appears Chris Hodges' website has now gone offline. Previously you could download Poseidon and many of his other programs there. Now it just says "watch this space". Anyone have any ideas?

I really get annoyed at this sort of thing. This is why stuff should be uploaded to Aminet. Hope these utilities aren't lost forever!

For Amithlon you probably need this as well: http://aminet.net/driver/other/ArakAttack.lha

Did you install poseidon 4.4 and the ArakAttack driver?

[XDelusion]

Yes you would. You would have to manually select Arakattack as your driver of choice within the Amithlon environment, though thus far I'm having trouble getting anything to detect, plus I broke keyboard support in the process so I'll have to go back and see where I went wrong.

The other problem is i don't have a registration key, so even if i can download posiedon 4 i will be unable to register, theres any free key published when the software was opensource ?.

Sorry for Hijacking, but even before registering or activating, where can I download poseidon 4.4?

If you are a member of the English Amiga Board it's currently still up in "The Zone"

If you aren't a member PM me and will be happy email it to you.

Hi there Akiko.

I've totally missed this Poseidon 4.4 event...
It's not in the zone anymore.

Would you kindly e-mail it to me too? :nervous:

The files are still available here: http://amiga911maker.site11.com/dl/poseidon.htm

I've got links to the files Poseidon 3.8, 4.4 and ArakAttack) and a write up (install guide) for Poseidon on Amithlon.

You can actually install Poseidon 3.8 and ArakAttack, and if it works for you on your motherboard, install Poseidon 4.4 on top and you don't need a registration key.

Thanks to Zack again, I have Poseidon 4.5 now on my Amithlon system. And it works like a charm!
