@Nearly-Right

Use an 8029 instead of 8139 card if you don't want to use PCMCIA. Its not like the 8139 ever went much faster than 10Mb/s in a Mediator 1200 anyway.

Nobody said that its impossible to get TV cards working under Mediator/OS4 either, its just that there are currently no native drivers for that. It might or might not work, at this point we don't know.

At least you actually can use network (8029), sound (terratec) and graphics (voodoo) in the mediator. Would you rather there was no support at all?

Besides, if you want, you can use the elbox 68k drivers. Just remove all OS4 native drivers for mediator cards and install them like on OS3.9, they even use the native Picasso96.

Theres no need to be so hostile about it, its not like hyperion owe you anything.

G-Rex doesn't work because the people behind the G-Rex actively refuse to give documentation to Hyperion.

The G-Rex simply doesn't work; some OS4 betatesters have G-Rex boards.

Is this verified?


Everything on the list is verified; thats how the list was made. OS4 betatesters reported their actual findings to ACube.

Dose it work with the Mediator a1200 bus boards under OS4?


In general, if an OS4 native driver works on one classic PCI system, it'll work on all of them.
