    I just assumed so by the structure of Andreas' response.
    But PCI-X is little more than 133MHz 64 bit PCI so it probably would not be that much of a challenge.
    And the only cards we currently have support for are PCI.
    So that was the assumption I made, PCI cards in PCI-X slots.

    I mean to use a PCI card too (a WiFi one), but I have a 2.5 GHz June 2004 G5 model with only has PCI-X slots.

    So far I've tested SBLive and TP-Link TL-WN350G in my G5 2.7 - both works fine.

    Useful information.
    I guess I will pull my SB Live listing on eBay.

    Awesome, I'm about to get a TL-WN551G for my G5 too. I already have one in my Pegasos II, and it works great in MorphOS.

    What about the TL-WN350GD?
    Is that basically the same as the TL-WN350G?

    The D in the name only denotes the detachable antenna. The MadWifi compatibility list can be used as a reference (the 802.11g cards): http://madwifi-project.org/wiki/Compatibility
    The MorphOS/AROS/AmigaOS4 driver uses the same Atheros HAL.

    Whether the TL-WN350G also works under osx ?

    I seem to be only on topic, G5 end model is only PCI-E model until SAM460ex support.

    Which cards can be expected to be supported?

    I need to know since I want to buy LOW PROFILE card, expensive ones, to fit it into Lorianos
    X500 case now with MOS keys

    So, Radeon X1600, Radeon 4000HD, Radeon 6000-7000HD?

    Actually your pretty much offtopic....

    Sofar only G5s with PCI-X and AGP slots are supported (PCI-X being backward compatible with PCI cards).

    The only PCIe based G5 that has beeen seen running MorphOS sofar has exactly 0 slots (mmm, well actually there might be some (PCMCIA-style ?) slot for AirPort and/or BlueTooth modules).

    Well I have a nice fat prob and that is that SAM460ex has no free PCI slots (need to use SATA controller) and is picky on gfx cards - just some X1600 and 4000HD or better needed.

    And that is certainly part of development path, Jah is no secret?

    Because of the required PPC ROM it will probably be (a subset of) those Radeon cards working in the PCIe PowerMac G5:

    - X6xx
    - X8xx
    - X19xx

    > Radeon X1600, Radeon 4000HD, Radeon 6000-7000HD?

    Not in the PCIe PowerMac G5 models as there are no PPC ROM versions of those cards.

    There will be more supported from the X1xxx series than just X16x0:
