All files are hosted by SourceForge

Hello everybody!

All files are hosted by SourceForge now. I just did a clean-up and separated all applications sources from PIAPARA LiveCD sources. So, it's easy to download now.

I have to learn all SourceForge schemas now, because they have a lot of applications to offer. But it's an amazing service.

PIAPARA LiveCD is also at SoftPedia too.

GREAT!!!

PIAPARA LiveCD is at SourceForge

Hello people!

I just created the PIAPARA LiveCD project at SourceForge:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/piapara/

The SourceForge tools will help me with file hosting, forums and bug report tools. It's a big step for this project.

Please participate!

New PIAPARA LiveCD v0.132

Version 0.132 - 9 July 2009
  • This version is dedicated to my 30th anniversary since last 18 June! ;)
News:
  • In sync with Mandriva 2009 Spring core: Kernel 2.6.29.6 and DirectFB 1.4.1
  • SDLMAME 0.132.
  • PIAPARA LiveCD will match the release number of SDLMAME.
  • Removed the SDL library patch by Couriersud. It crashes with DirectFB 1.4.1.
  • Different monitor support. Now we have the Wells Gardner D9200 too.
  • 21 different SDLMAME executables for better performance. Please take a look at http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.3.3/gcc/i386-and-x86_002d64-Options.html for more information.
Help:
  • I need a better support from you, users! Please be more participative at the blog!

Too busy these days!

Hello people, how are you?

I'm too busy these days with some pinball restoration and my wedding too. Also, I found a big problem with DirectFB library at Mandriva 2009 Spring release. To solve this, I opened a thread at Mandriva Bugzilla report tool:

https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=51871

For now, I have to wait some Mandriva news before I release the new PIAPARA LiveCD. I don't want to release a new version without the DirectFB video acceleration support.

Next release is almost done!

Hello people!

Today I worked a lot onto next release of PIAPARA LiveCD! So, it's only missing a kernel update.
I'll try to do my best to include a lot of hardware support, to help people with notebooks/laptops and some RAID/SCSI hard disk drivers/controllers.

Stay tunned next days!

What is coming?

Hello people. How are you?

I'm a little busy these days with 3 things: my anniversary, my wedding and my Attack From Mars pinball restoration.

In some days I'll release a new PIAPARA LiveCD version with SDLMAME v0.132. This will be an anniversary edition.

Stay tunned!
