Hardware accelerated gfx drivers aren't really all that important at the moment... The CPU has gobs of grunt that massively outperform anything the Amiga ever had, as long as you can use the VESA driver to get a nice 32bit display at a proper resolution, just enjoy it, you wouldn't notice any difference unless you tried to play a 3D game or something.
Managed to get it working, ICAROS ATI driver allows me to run in native after deleting the Nvidia driver. Although I can't open up OWB as the screen corrupts and it hangs.
Interesting thing is I can get 3d acceleration working great.
So tried the ATI drivers from
http://www.syntaxsociety.se/~bearsoft/ These give me an almost rock solid desktop but it breaks 3D acceleration.
Under VESA it's very laggy not smooth at all, native is very quick.
Try the links in my sig.
Amithlon, will give that a try thanks :-)
Unlikely if you have an ATI card installed.
The Nvidia driver would crash with the onboard Geforce card so switched to the ATI 9200 card same deal, it would try and load the Nvidia driver.
Once I deleted that driver it allowed the ATI driver to work, although still not 100%.
Another thing I noticed is I would get no picture at all when using DVI, change to VGA and no problems.
I've got it to a point I can use workbench(?) browse the internet for about half an hour then a solid lock.
I don't know where AROS gives any kind of "everything is okay" message regarding networking. Are you sure you selected the right driver?
Should be the nforce driver as it's nforce2 nic. Anyway this started working fine once I deleted the nivdia driver.
Just need someone to point me in the right direction for a decent ATI driver.
Going to try this one next.
