the demo reall doesnt show it since its not gl based, but mesa is confirmed working. more to come i think.
as for pci there is a discussion but no consensus as to how it has to be done. openpci has been rejected as far as i understand, prometheus is an option. i dont know how this is going to be handled yet. nevertheless jason should have working mediator machine soon, so we will not wait long i bet.

Nope it means Jason is working on mesa and gallium for classics :)

Edit: Forgot to mention this should also put the Geforce 5200 PCI + Mediator I sent him to use eventually. :)


he had no working cpu module and motherboard, but i filled in the gap already. he should have it soon.

Shame. No amithlon support then for hardware rendering and software rendering we (amithlon) already have.
I was hoping this'd bring something new for me.

Oh well, nice for those with supported hardware. I assume it'll just be one pci expansion then?


currently its all in software, whether for amithlor or 68k amigas, what concerns amithlon i dont know how pci support is done within the os. is it based on openpci? i proposed it on the dev list as possibility to have one cross platform pci support system but it was generally rejected as aros has pci.hidd already and openpci is "too ugly". you might open a discussion on aros exec, since nothing has been decided as yet, for what i know. i think it is an important subject.
