I been swap Ubuntu Mate On my Quad G5 without reinstall ... Nvidia 7800gtx, Radeon 4650HD and Radeon HD 6570 Hd... Probably you upgrade the video board without upgrade the kernel and the Xorg
About 4K video .. that was a 4670 512mb ... im sure on a 67xxx and up video board everything will be much better ;) _________________ I love Amiga and new hope by AmigaNG A 500 + ; CDTV; CD32; PowerMac G5 Quad 8GB,SSD,SSHD,7800gtx,Radeon R5 230 2GB; MacBook Pro Retina I7 2.3ghz; #nomorea-eoninmyhome |

yep.. it sucks.
But it sucks in general as soon you dig deeper into linux. Ubuntu is quasimodo ... Old stuff doesn't work well.
Better use debian and form it as you like:
Now my counter attack with 35€ devices taking 7-14Watt at max:
First on sub 20€ Pi 1 AEROS before beta 5 (before hardware accelerated X11 was available)
Lately we got accelerated X11 so the black borders are gone (when moving windows) It plays fullHD video and does HTML5 "Hardware accelerated".

Than on sub 50€ ARM device:

How much frames does a X1000 reach in Cow3d? Or your Mac mini? Pi 1 mining Amigacoins while playing puyo puyo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUigNkhktFk
Boom! : p (don't take this too serious ; ) )

If you need i can sey how much will be the result of VirtualPc + 3 Qemu running 4 aros 2.0 on Quad G5 ;)
here was only 3 Qemu :( http://youtu.be/CEQ4MEOpdjY?t=3m9s
here was only 1 Virtual PC https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGGMOsTqh70
But i can make a video of all together Last edited by tlosm on 19-Feb-2015 at 08:44 PM. Last edited by tlosm on 19-Feb-2015 at 08:26 PM. Last edited by tlosm on 19-Feb-2015 at 08:19 PM. Last edited by tlosm on 19-Feb-2015 at 08:12 PM.

Oh, you people who use binary-only drivers -- will you never learn!
I run various Linux-based operating systems on hardware with Intel graphics. The 3D side is not the fastest, but it works well enough for what I use it for, and I've never had any driver problems. Life here is peaceful -- sunshine, little birds singing, etc.

I'll live:
Quote:
Efika, Mac Mini, Powerbook. Soon adding a G5 2.7GHz, currently undergoing LCS repairs and not yet registered (O rings obtained, need to get one of those pressure valve thingies to drain/refresh the coolant though).
I could do without the Efika, but the rest are all in daily use: laptop, media centre, and G5 will be living room media centre/gaming. :)
The total investment was £540 + MorphOS registrations (£50 for the Efika, £175 for the mini, £235 for the Powerbook (including the cost of a replacement when the first one died), and £80 for the G5.)
If I had to replace the lot it would cost less today, and even less next year - and I could find them on Ebay by the truckload. |
Although since I wrote that I've developed a tablet problem which left the powerbook unused for a while... So convenient for reading, so turdlike for typing. :(
PS - It's a Playbook... Outdated, underpowered, deserted by developers, not up-to-date with internet standards...

| In case nobody noticed earlier today I retweeted AmigaKit's news that AmigaOS 4.1 FE is available again. What this means in the grand scheme of things is anyone's guess... But good news nonetheless.

"Instead we have Hyperion, A-Eon and Amigakit, MorphOS, and AROS, and others fighting hard to breathe life back into the Amiga spirit..."
And this is precisely where I disagree.
We do indeed have multiple parties *fighting* and spinning their wheels - and that's been a huge barrier to any sort of progress.
I also disagree that substantial backing is necessary.
Years ago the suggestion was made that two paths should have been pursued: preserving the legacy systems and breaking free and starting anew by leveraging alternative operating systems as the basis for a new AmigaOS.
Instead we have kept the original OS and hardware on life support. To what end?
There is a prevailing myth that the original Amiga development effort somehow magically materialized from the void. It didn't. It was built on the foundation of existing offerings and customized to make it uniquely powerful. Reinventing the wheel wasn't a consideration then and it shouldn't be now.
So is there a solution?
It's clear that other development efforts have made significant progress with nominal funding led by individuals that have tremendous respect within the Amiga community. And yet the "not invented here" syndrome persists.
I'm not discrediting the tremendous effort and financial commitment that a number of parties have made. They deserve our respect. But it's no longer good enough.
It's time to let the past go.

Perhaps your right. But the problem is that Hyperion keeps the progress a secret - so one doesn't know how far they are with MP, 3D etc. (oh and they are bankrupt...)
But if Trevor dares to make completely new hardware for the amiga os fans - he would probably also dare to ditch legacy support, and go full frontal sci-fi mode on the operating system.
Could be interesting how A-EON and Amigakit would deal with such a challenge ? Last edited by Hondo on 20-Feb-2015 at 11:04 AM. Last edited by Hondo on 20-Feb-2015 at 07:27 AM. Last edited by Hondo on 20-Feb-2015 at 07:27 AM.
