    I just tested the new Alien Vs Predator and the same problem - blank screen, can still hear sound, etc. Seems like something to do with g5/9800xt combo.

    @esc & @itix

    I can confirm that I am experiencing the exact same below behavior on a G4+9800XT when running ScummVm:

    I should mention that the whole time, I'm able to hear background music [...]

    Full story: I upgraded directly from 3.1 to 3.3 and swap my 9000 with a 9800 altogether. When I choose Prefs/Screenmode for the first time and tried to change resolution I got trashed graphics. I rebooted to fix problem. Then I tried to run FOTAQ on ScummVm, but when I choose in the options to run it on fullscreen I got trashed graphics as well. Therefore I decided to perform a clean install of 3.3 (format my SYS) and now I get the blank screen but hearing the sounds playing normally exactly as esc describes. In my above post you can find the link ti the thread I created and the feedback I got from bigfoot.

    I have the same problem, when I try to change the screenmode to a 16bit mode.
    I am really sure, that my radeon 9800XT is a Mac Edition card.

    All I can say, as instructed in this thread is:

    1) Reboot your computer.
    2) Open a shell
    3) Change the directory to one of your hard disk partitions by typing its name followed by a colon
    4) Type 'getramdebuglog' (without the quotes) but don't press enter yet.
    5) Do whatever it is it takes to reproduce the problem
    6) Activate the shell window and press enter
    7) Wait 5 seconds
    8) Reboot, file a bug report, write a short description and paste the contents of the 'morphos.log' file that was created on the partition you chose.

    * If you are unable to do the above, file the bug report and accompany it by a photograph of the trashed screen.

    Hope bigfoot or somebody else in charge takes care of 9800XT's troublesome (mis)behavior because I have read the similar comments by other XT owners as well. My card is also Mac edition.

    Ah, thanks. I'm glad there's a fix. Not so glad I can't just update the driver...but, oh well.

    Hey, I'm not near my morphos computer right now but I will get the logs for you soon :)

    The interesting thing is that it worked fine when I had my 9600 pro radeon card. I switched it with a 9800 xt and now it doesn't work. :)


    So does it work now after updating to 3.4 ?

    I sure hope so Frank.
    It was a really pain to dig up a video card with an R360 GPU, 256MBs of vram, and a universally keyed AGP card edge for Stefanos (Cool_amigaN).
    Most R360 cards are keyed for 4X/8X AGP.

    I think it has burned us both out (as we are each using 9000Pros atm).

    I can confirm that Robin works under MOS3.4/9800Pro/G4 combination (PMAC v.3.1). Installed the game correctly following Yasu's detailed walkthrough.
