I'm responsible for the GF4-supporting kernel. The reason there are no docs with it is, as Bill says, that it's a test kernel that was really only intended for distribution to a few people on the Amithlon mailing list.

I'm disapointed and not a little bit peeved that AmigaBest has made it available, but the kernel is under the GPL so there's not much I can do about it.    :-(

As for Radeon support,  I'm working on that but the Radeon frame-buffer device in the kernel does not play well with Amithlon so there is no guarantee it will ever work.

If you're interested in new kernels I'd strongly suggest that you subscribe the to the Amithlon, AmithlonOpen and AmithlonDev lists on Yahoo Groups. New information always shows up there first.

Maybe you could help with the GFX Card specific drivers for AROS?

GeForce and Radion would be great!!!!
