    I tried the Radeon X800GTO AGP card and can confirm :

    It does not work ! (at least with my 2GHz G5 PowerPC)

    I do not get any picture !

    Did you have MorphOS installed previously (before the gfx card swap) or are you trying to boot an AGP G5 Power Mac from CD using AtomBIOS card? Because the latter won't work.

    EDIT: I just figured out X800 is not an AtomBIOS card, so you won't be able to boot anyway. You need a newer Radeon (or Apple BIOS for this card).

    But it is, just too old version of AtomBIOS for MorphOS (see comment #21).
