Best Amithlon Kernel for AMD 2500 CPU

[XDelusion]

Nvidia GeForce 5200.

Cheap and effective solution.

I use kernel 4 with a Intel 4 based mobo for the note.

Hence the reason life is easier when the OS developer also develops the hardware to run their OS on.

With OS like Amithlon, AROS, or Haiku, I walk into it expecting to have to do research and build a machine that will cOmpliment the OS as perfectly as it can.

If this were classic Amiga and not Amithlon, I'd still have to buy new dedicated hardware.

Am I reading you right X?
Shaf and I have to downgrade to a 5200 instead of using a 5700 or a 5900?
That stinks.

I have no experience with the 57 or 59 my self, I can only speak for the 5200.

I'd say update to kernel 4, make sure you install boing bag 2, run the Amithlon update (select those packages carefully), and install the kernel 4 driver pack.

If things are still in VESA mode after all that, then yes you'll prolly want to downgrade...

Please get a second and third opinion though. I'm not the most knowledgable person on this subject.

Good luck, hope it all turns out well!

With the encouragement from that reference, I decided to up the specs of the system I going to try to run Amithlon on.

Hopefully I'll be able to run Amithlon and AROS on the same system.
