A little sad to limit a graphics card to a 33MHz shared PCI bus

True. When I finally turn it into a proper driver, it'll probably be moved to the 66 MHz slot though.

In the meantime, could someone please start work on a new motherboard with a PCI-Express bus? Or grab an existing PPC board with PCI-Express (including one 16x slot please) and start porting OS4.

Oh.... It is safer to use - "finish"

Olegil maybe you can make PCI-e to AGP2 converter card

66MHz PCI slot? The one that reportedly doesn't work on fixed A1s? Or am I missing something here?

There will never be another motherboard with OS4 support as long as Amiga Inc doesn't allow anyone to get licenses. So there.

The one that won't work simultaneously with an AGP card. I've heard mixed reports about the A1 fix.

I stand corrected

Perhaps, read this post by KGrach, he says the 66 Mhz slot will work after the fix.
There is also Tony saying the opposite in the same thread.

Does a PCI graphic card work in a normal PCI slot on an XE with fixed and unfixed hardware? Not the 66 MHz version I mean.

Worked in mine last time I tried.

Addon: It is an A1XE in original condition

Upgrade. My Amiga-one may now be the Amiga with the most (unusable) graphics power.

The RadeonHD driver now works as a framebuffer (see here). Yes, it can display Workbench.

Great work!

At this rate you may just beat the Sam440 flex to market.

@Hans

wow thats impressive
