Good stuff, Hans.
And it makes an interesting comparison when you compare it to what's going on in the MorphOS community.

We still have a few users using older cards like the Voodoo3/4s, and Radeon 9200s (of course we've got some users of the 9800 as well, which isn't well supported by AmigaOS).
But, above those, we have people using R400 and R500 cards (things like the X800XT, the X1600 and the  X1900XT), which again, don't have very good support under OS4.

Then, neither of our "camps" see much use of the R600 series' (the 3xxx and 4xxx cards), even though Radeon 4650 cards were supplied with the X1000.

And since MorphOS offers no acceleration above the R500 series, the same seems true for all higher cards, BUT, thanks to YOUR efforts...
LOTS of OS4 users are benefiting from the GCN generation 1 gpus.

Your work has been most useful. And provided a real edge here.
