Misc news about eComStation from Internet:
1) How do you initialize Audio on startup?
Share the script with other users
2) "I wanna make something useful for the community of OS/2 / eCS users".
Some opportunities:
- You can write reviews of applications and make screenshots
- eCo Labs -> REXX scripts
- eCo Labs -> Scout tasks
- eCo Labs -> write specific articles
- Support eCo Market

You draw the scheme, the service generates code.
MySQL, is supported, PostgreSQL, SQLite, MySQL, MSSql, Oracle are planned.
6) David T. Johnson reminds:
I tested the firefox 12/4/2010 build that R. Walsh uploaded to netlabs
and the HTML5 WebM video actually works on Youtube with the firefox v4b8
build...which I have not seen previously. It has to be a video that
youtube has converted to WebM (most are not...yet) but, if it is, you
will see the player controls in the window with a little tag 'HTML5
WebM' at the bottom. The video quality is very good 360p which is much
better than the old flash 7 plugin could offer on OS/2. You might have
read that Google (the owner of youtube) and Microsoft are locked in
battle over the HTML5 video standard. Microsoft is supporting H.264
while Google is supporting WebM which is completely open source and
without any IP restrictions. Microsoft has put H.264 support into
Internet Explorer 9.
here's the link to the OS/2 firefox build
You can join the HTML5 video trial here
and then click on the 'join the HTML5 Trial' link at the bottom of the page. Have fun...
7) Opinion exchange: the users are interested to know, does Samba client work for you?
Connect to remote eComStation PC, russian version.
What happens when you edit a file? Is it damaged after save?

Serenity Systems International and Mensys BV wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year!
A short review of the past year:
- eComStation 2.0 GA was released at Warpstock Europe 2010 in may.
- A lot of work was done in tweaking the hardware detection and additional drivers;
- The Intel NIC PCIe driver: this driver has been ported from Linux and is based on the Linux kernel module e1000e. It is released under the GNU Public License and anyone
can request access to the source repository.
It supports 49 chipsets natively and as such covers 45 more than the Genmac driver shipping in eCS 2.0 GA.
- The NVidia Ethernet driver was updated too, now using the same framework as the Intel driver.
- Java 6: this port is close to a beta release; follow http://svn.netlabs.org/java for the latest news.
- Qt4 has been updated to version 4.6.3 thanks to community sponsoring; see http://svn.netlabs.org/qt4/ for more information and a lot of applications that were already ported
- eComStation 2.0.1 will be released in English, German and Dutch. Unfortunately the update will not be available this year, but early 2011.

Windows OSR2
- Windows Vista was released after SVISTA (Serenity Virtual Station),
Of course, we formed the word "SVISTA" from spanish "vista".
- Now Microsoft is using "Aurora" word:

The users are interested to know:
- Problem [A]: How to launch VLC player in eComStation?
(step by step instructions?)
- Problem [B]: How to help to eCo Software?
For example, you can join testing of our software.
Current tasks: a) test Sunny icons, b) OpenOffice, export of russian text to PDF,
c) test File Open Container, d) test WPS copy/move operations, e) test BackEmUp utility
- Problem [C]: It's difficult edit/write group of HTML files
for non-computer users. How to organize the work? How to edit HTML?
Non-computer people don't understand File Commander, they
need other more simple approach. Do you have an advice?
- Problem [D]: (check the strategy of eCS community: Evolutionary Sprint) -
more computer users start using 3G and 4G.
eComStation supports this hardware, but you should setup it.
- Problem [E]: Sigurd is working on new clips about eComStation:
