I'm getting an Apple G4 mobo with nVidia graphics (don't have detailed specs so far but looks like it will be 750 MHz or 1 GHz) so I'm having high hopes this kind of hardware might become supported in near future, resulting in me getting a MorphOS machine. If I had an eMac tho, I'd go for something like this:



I don't think there will be Nvidia support in the near future tho :/

^ that's not a bad looking proposition. Is it a real example or a mock-up?

Well, until there is, it'll have to run Linux. I can wait : )

It's just a shopped quickie ... but easy enough to make, all it would take is a paint job and a vinyl sticker. But of course it would also require a matching keyboard and mouse.

Unfortunately nvidia does not provide any documentation about their chipsets and thus we're not planning to add support.

Please refer to the supported hardware page.

You part of the MorphOS team or something?

Yes, since around 2000.

How about investigating the nouveau drivers? I'm not suggesting using the code directly, but the required information needed to create a CGX driver for a range of nividia hardware is surely in there somewhere. You've also got gallium as an inspiration if you want to 3D support.

It's a pity that neither the p96 or CGX driver SDKs are available to the community at large :-/

Cooked or raw?

As mentioned above, I'm willing to be hopeful that the Nouveau might provide some clues if not code in the future; meanwhile I'll investigate the possibility of getting a suitable graphics card from ATI, the machines had an AGP 4x slot, and Apple seem to have used Radeon 9000 with 64 MB VRAM as a cheaper alternative.

So I guess there's hope after all ... (^__^ )

Either or, but fried in a pan, covered in cheese would be sublime!
