If you get that far it's surely supported and the GFX-card should make no difference at that point (well unless it's broken in some way).

Did you try wether the unit runs o.k. under OSX ?

1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

Power Macintosh G5



MorphOS 3.5 introduced support for some more Power Macintosh G5 systems (PowerMac7,2).

NVIDIA cards are not supported by MorphOS and would need to be replaced with a suitable Mac Radeon card instead.

MorphOS will currently use a maximum of 1GB of memory on these G5 machines, even if more is installed in the machine.

DP = Dual Processors (MorphOS only supports using one CPU though)


Here is a list of supported Power Macintosh G5 (7,2) machines, oldest first, ascending in performance:

   76. Power Macintosh G5 1.6 (PCI), PowerMac7,2, NVIDIA card
77. Power Macintosh G5 1.8 (PCI-X), PowerMac7,2, NVIDIA card
78. Power Macintosh G5 1.8 DP (PCI-X), PowerMac7,2, NVIDIA card
79. Power Macintosh G5 2.0 DP (PCI-X), PowerMac7,2

To sum up the current G5 support (Model No: A1047) that was divided in two posts above for obvious reasons, here is joint a list of the Power Macintosh G5 models that MorphOS currently supports:

:cool:

Believe me, I have tried, but all older posts are locked for some reason and can't be changed in any way. The only posts I can edit now, are those above in this page. Strange...  :(

But to avoid any confusion, according to my count:

MorphOS now supports 79 (seventy-nine) systems!!!

Can the mods change it? Would be a useful post to keep up to date.

@TMHG

That was a bit too subtle (and nowhere near enough bananas), can you try again please? :)

I want 81, hope inna next release SAM460ex and SAM460ex LITE (Project NAOMO) will be added.

Also, MORE DRIVERS - PCI-E cards time, at least Radeon 4000Hd

What good is to have 81 sys supported, if only Radeon 9800 or Radeon 1xxx can be pluged in?

That'll do. For  now.

What will you do when the amount passes 80? :)

At least they are usable. For real. IMHO, the GFX card situation is not a problem with MorphOS (the PPC is a far more serious issue for example); those graphic cards kind of match the computers general performance for which they were made anyway, they are of the same age, from the same era. The R200 support is rock solid, the R300 has had many updates and improvements during the last few MorphOS releases and is now probably (I have no personal experience) kind of mature, then there will be the R500...

The X1000 development/OS4 porting started in 2009, the Sam 460 was released (with OS4 ported) in mid-2010. PCI-e was touted as some kind of holy grail by some, and Radeon HD cards were bundled with the pre-built systems ever since then.

That was more than an entire "computer generation" ago, a very looong time has passed since then in "computer evolution time". And today I read in Trevor's blog that the first release of the Radeon HD driver v1.0 is closing in. The highlight of this will be 2D HW acceleration! Not 3D, not overlay, just regular 2D!

So to quote yourself: "what good is that"?

While we had 2D, 3D, overlay, etc...

3D ;)

Anyway, Macs need Radeon with Mac ROM and AFAIK X1900 is the best you can have on Macs. On the other hand on low end lsystems like SAM460 X1900 is more than enough.
