New Mediator 1200SX

Yeah but still...  :-D

Its nothing amazing... the TV card takes a PAL signal and outputs it to a PIP window on the Voodoo. And guess what? AGA generates a PAL signal

Problem is though, the OS needs to be up and running for this to work. Any game or demo that takes over the system won't work.

I totally agree with redrumloa

This card has 6 slots, but only four interrupt lines on the PCI side (on the amiga side it's a zorro interrupt, so it's shared anyway). This means two cards share interrupts. On the PC, this is what's causing problems 10 times out of 9. But in this case there is no old, buggy drivers that don't work with shared interrupts to be frustrated about, so I would say things can really be summed up by this:

Good one, guys. Any possibility for someone buying my 4-slot so I can upgrade?  :-P

On the other hand, I've got too much equipment and too little time anyway. I hate it when that happens.  Today I generated 53GB of traffic on a test-lan in my office, using gigabit ethernet cards, media converters, optical frequency shifters (transponders, or opt-el-opt converters) and an optical amplifier. 53GB in 15 minutes running through 105km of fiber in rolls on the floor isn't half bad, is it? ;-) :-D  :-P  :-)   :-P  :-D

Nope, you're wrong. If you set DISPLAYCHAIN=NO in the Picasso96 monitor icon then it'll work, because the Workbench will still be displayed even if it's the AGA output which is the active "screen".

Take my word for it, I've tried it myself :-)

> Kronos , do i have to remind you of all the arse-holes involved in MorphOS / Pegasos ?

Do you know them? No. Yet you keep repeating what several other people say.

> And on the PCI front BPlan telling DCE not to give tech docs to Hyperion ? ...

Do you know that? No. Even Ben Hermans, who is in the story, unlike you, can't be sure about that, and is
it is true, the G-Rex specs are Gerald Carda's not Dellert's. He can do whatever he wants with them.

I'll say one thing: SB Live driver.

I think that you can already use Sb live on Mediator.

Sb 128 are compatible, but you can use the special effect.
