New Mesa/Nouveau brings support for Fermi cards to AROS!

3D part on R400 and R500 models is AFAIK an evolution of R300 part so if very good R300 support is developed R400 and R500 drivers will have a good basis.
 
 
I'm not, as I have explained above high quality R200 and R300 support is more important than supporting R400 or R500 because most of MorphOS users will need R200&R300 and not later models.
 

Personally, I have both R300 and R400 cards that will work in my Quicksilver.
I'd like to see the later.

Can the Pegasos use AGP8X cards like the Radeon 9800 or one of the R400 based cards?

[Iggy]

AFAIK it depends on voltages supported by the card. Some 9800 cards work, some doesn't. Check out morphzone to see if somebody had one and can tell you brand&model.

R400... I don't think these are supported in MorphOS yet even in 2D. The most modern core publicly shown is Radeon x600 PCIexpress on iMac G5, and that uses a R300 core.

Yeah, I talked to Frank about the R400 several months ago. At first, we weren't even sure that R400 based cards would work in a G4.
I re-flashed a FireGL X3 with a Mac X800XT BIOS and taped over pins 11 & 3 on the back side of the connector and when installed in my Quicksilver it works fine under OSX.
So we can assume that re-flashed PC video cards (R400) could be supported by MorphOS (even without G5 support).
