Nice one. be waiting to see them in The Netherlands.

Hopefully not the boards that has now reached Sweden, though. But the rest of the boards should be on the way from the far east by now, afaik...

@Helgis:
Good luck with your board. I hope you've checked out the linux page at http://amigaone-linux.sourceforge.net/, the hardware page at amigarulez and that you don't run back to mommy crying about Linux being a bad kid after less than an hour
 :-P  :-P

Nah, I guess you'll be allright :-)

Hmm, Geforce wouldn't be bad if I had one to try out. I don't know if there's ANY working AmigaOne-linux drivers for it atm (the focus has been on Voodoo and Radeon), but Geforce is the only card I know of that actually HAS hardware GL drivers under Linux. Matrox, Voodoo, Radeon don't (at least not on my computers they don't).

Funny how the A1200 is almost as fast on the Gears demo as the A1 :-) (ok, that was a joke. But software-rendered opengl sucks quite a bit...)

Congratulations, Andreas :-)

Give me a bell and a whistle if you need some help setting it up (but I guess you'll get some local Göteborg-help, eh?) :-)

I am the moderator.
Alan is supposed to be the administrator, but I end up doing a lot of the dirty work on that end as well. Next time Gunne might consider emailing Alan and then let Alan email me instead of emailing me and then I have to email Alan and wait for his reply :-)

Confused? I am ;-)

Me and Gunne have started talking about a smaller list for anyone who is interested (basically, I would set up something where anyone can request to subscribe, and members-only posting as usual (saves us a hell of a lot of spam, actually). Does it sound intriguing? Anyway, let's hope we'll have AOS4 soon, eh? I just finished installing the 990529 snapshot of GeekGadgets on my brand new A1200, next up is installing some newer things from the alpha branch. Tomorrow. After I've played some games :-)

No. Benchmarking UAE is really silly. How do you benchmark an emulator anyway?
Also, I've got the AmigaOne in the completely wrong place at the moment (A1200 at work, A1 at home).

Hmm, I managed to get it up from 200 to 370 now, on the Matrox G550. Tuxracer is suddenly playable.

What resolution are you running? I'm thinking maybe 372 isn't too bad in 1600x1200. I get 600 FPS in 800x600. But who would run that on a 21"? Even the A1200 runs 1280x1024 (with a linuxchicks background image *cough* :-D )
