X1000 wont show CFE Screen or boot at all with a Polaris card.

Sam460ex with latest U-Boot (2015.a) will not show U-Boot but will boot into AmigaOS 4.1 .

Dont know if the older Sam460ex U-Boot versions work or not.

Yes, but it didn't boot to OS4? Is anybody tried to hookup serial cable, to see where it stops. Maybe even if it didn't show cfe and boot, it still will show amigaos4 itself.

@thread

If anyone is interested in picking up a cheap Polaris card to try out on their X5000 other compatible machines, you may be interested in this one which arrived in the post this morning and initiates at h U-Boot. They are listed as refurbished but this came in its original box and was sealed and with manual and disk.

So what is the current best Radeon video card to purchase for X1000 owners, with the most support for both 2D, and 3D acceleration? Is any work being done to fix the problem that prevents Polaris cards from working in the X1000? Is it probable that a newer generation of Radeon cards that use a different GPU chipset will work in the X1000, therefore skipping support for the Polaris chipset will not matter?

I still have the original Radeon (5450 I think) video card in my X1000, but have been thinking of replacing it for a long time. I don't want to get something that will not receive future support from the new updates that Hans is producing, so do I get something now, or wait for the next update and hope that support for the X1000 will improve?

You cannot use Polaris cards in the X1000 ATM (lost of Uboot sources).

So yes, poor X1000 users.
