More information about the Panorama Package may be found in the Panorama wiki.

If you have ArcaOS, this driver package is available for download from the Arca Noae website as part of the Support & Maintenance subscription for your ArcaOS product. Please log into your account and see your ArcaOS order details page to access your software.

If you have an Arca Noae OS/2 & eCS Drivers and Software Subscription, this driver package is available for download from the Arca Noae website as part of your Arca Noae OS/2 & eCS Drivers and Software Subscription. Please log into your account in order to access your software.

If you are still running OS/2 and/or eComStation systems and haven’t yet purchased a software subscription, this is a great reason to do so now. It may also be a good time to consider moving up to ArcaOS.

Updated Uniaud Driver Package Released

Arca Noae is pleased to announce the immediate availability of an updated Uniaud Audio Driver Package for ArcaOS, OS/2, and eComStation. (Uniaud-20180117)

This is a minor maintenance release that contains some fixes for Realtek mixer devices.

This release of Uniaud32 also implements MSI support. MSI only works with the ACPI PSD version 3.23.04 or higher. It is not required to use the ACPI PSD with Uniaud. If you don’t use ACPI then Uniaud will just use normal interrupts. If you are using the ACPI PSD, it must be version 3.23.04 or higher or your system may trap. If you are using an earlier version of ACPI, upgrade ACPI first before installing this version of Uniaud.

More information about the Uniaud Package may be found in the Uniaud wiki.

IBM LAN Update for ArcaOS Released

Arca Noae is pleased to announce the immediate availability of an update for the IBM LAN product in ArcaOS.

This update brings the IBM Requester and Peer files in ArcaOS up to the latest level. This update is only for ArcaOS versions 5.0 through 5.0.1. The updated IBM Requester and Peer files will already be in ArcaOS versions 5.0.2 and later, so those systems do not need this update. This update is not for non-ArcaOS systems. The installer will check your system to see if you need the update when you run it.

If you have ArcaOS, this update package is available for download from the Arca Noae website as part of the Support & Maintenance subscription for your ArcaOS product. Please log into your account and see your ArcaOS order details page to access your software.

If you are still running OS/2 and/or eComStation systems, this update is not licensed for use on those systems. This might be a great time to consider moving up to ArcaOS.

Now accepting more cryptocurrencies

A recent change in the Stripe API, accompanied by a shift in Stripe’s handling of Bitcoin has prompted us to switch to CoinPayments.net directly for handling cryptocurrency. Payments processed through the CoinPayments.net gateway will still ultimately be processed by our CoinBase account, but will no longer be initialized via Stripe.

On the checkout page, CoinPayments.net is now listed as an additional gateway. Selecting that and clicking Place Order will transfer you to a page hosted by CoinPayments.net, where you may select Bitcoin or another one of a number of different cryptocurrencies.

Please note that as a result of this change, the Bitcoin Payment Policy has been superseded by the new Cryptocurrency Payment Policy (though the former will remain available for historical purposes).
