Sorry, I am going to have to correct you on that. The latest nVidia series of cards generate much less heat than the latest ATI cards. Everything I have been reading about nVidia's new cards point to them actually kicking ATI's "you-know-what" out of the water also. hehehe

@ bbrv

Good to hear, but I am sure nVidia would be quite interested in doing something to get Pegasos users to buy their cards instead.

My ATI Radeon9200SE works fine but no 3D...

Yes, same for me...

I've a ATI Radeon 9000Pro All-In-Wonder AGP 64 MB
and the card works great with overlay and DVI.
But no 3D-support ATM and no use of the TV/Video-part, but it couldn't be so hard, because if I think right, the TV-card-part is shown as "second" card with PCIInfo.

Hi Miky060:
On your Lacie monitor, what is your dot pitch and refresh rates at 1500 X xxxx and up ? or is there a tech site I can reach, so as not to bother you with details?

Carin

Radeon 9200SE with 128MB on my Black Sony monitor is just PERFECT....

I will buy a RADEON 9250 256Mb will this working with MorphOS?

greetings Cor van Londen.

I have the RADEON 8500 64Mb AGP, and all working good.

I'm using a 9250 with 256MB RAM now at 1024 x 768 (My monitor sucks for now) and it seems to work just fine.

Hello,sorry if i aou of topic but i hurry

Strange things happening with my Pegasos II

Recently i buy-et from Vesalia and using Voodoo5 pci without problems.
Ok,i want to change my videocar with Ati 7500LE/64 and i have problems
When i booting from CD the screen is ok,after i install MorphOS, de grafics come scrambled on my screen

I check the memory with another Pegasos II..OK
I check The video board with another Pegasos II ...OK
I run Gentoo live CD without problems with this board
it's something hidden in firmware?
I try 3 agp videocards and all have the same problems

Any hints?

Did you try to delete the old monitor prefs from HDD?

Yes, we also experienced this with various types of Radeon cards. This seems to be happen with recent Pegasos II firmware (1.2, 20050808 in rev2b5 mainboards) + MorphOS 1.4.5's Radeon driver. It boots too fast from the HDD, and this seems to trigger a race condition in the boot sequence.

Try to add "wait 2" command (w/o the quote marks) right before LoadMonDrvs command in your MOSSYS:s/startup-sequence. If that doesn't help, try to add it right before IPrefs. This slows down booting a bit, thus helps to avoid this race condition.

This however, should be considered as a quick workaround & hack, and final solution must (should) be provided by the MorphOS Team.

Thanks for advice
I try this an works sometimes (for example after 3 reboots the screen appear ok),after that i started numerous application and works.
Tested demos and even Quake3 and other 3D softwares
Annoyg is to must reboot many times to get the right image on my Peggy.

Right now i use my pci Voodoo5 card until i get a final solution for this problem.
No AGP on my Peggy i sent mail to support@morphos.net
an no answer right now.
I try at last with new maxtor 80G harddisk and the problem persist.

Today i bought a GeCube Radeon 9250 128MB DDRRam but it
doesn't work, with Quake3 i get only the massage: "Sys_Error: Unable to open a display"
No 3D Soft is working with the Board, tried Blender, Quake2,
Shogo, some ANR Plugins.
Why it dosen't work?

[ Edited by ThePlayer on 2005/10/18 17:42 ]

Now i got another Radeon 9250 from Captiva with 128MB DDR,
and i can Play all the games and use all apps.
But when using 3D after some seconds to some minutes the System freez.
I had an Radeon 7500 befor and got no Problems with this Card.
So why no Radeon 9250 want work here like it should???

Hi,

Look what i try...i write to cd my Boot partition and boot from cd.
The problem seems to be solved the grafics are ok,i think is the speed of hdd the cause
Can i slowdown the hdd speed?

I have answers from morphos support and searching the cause of problem.

Ati Radeon 9200se work fine, but Nvidia GeForce 6200 does not work at all .

I've tested up to the 1600x1200 resolution with GL Hexen (using Viewsonic G90f monitor)

Tested using FooBillard v3.0a for MorphOS - no major issues to note!

1280x1024 (all graphics detail high or ON)

Pegasos II ODW details:
MorphOS 1.4.5+ATI 3d drivers+ft2.library patch
(1GHz PowerPC G4, ATI Radeon 9200SE, 256MB RAM,40GB HD, DVD+/-RW)
SmartFirmware v1.2 (20040810...)

Hi Ken, we still have your email open on our desktop. The first thing we had to write was: have you posted this on MZ. Please post a screensot here and explain what you did. Thanks also for forwarding the information to ATI. We hope to have the certification done *finally* soon.

Nice work!

Hello,

I'm a new Pegasos II user with a 9250 Radeon Card. I cant seem to get Morph to go in a high screen resolution. I've changed my modeedit and I can see 1280x1024 and test it ok but I cant get it to be my default screen. Could someone give me a suggestion.

Also, booting is very hit and miss with Morph pausing on the MorphOS splash screen quite ofton
Many thanks, Jon

Try these two video boards:

SAPPHIRE low-profile ATI Radeon 9800SE 128MB 128-bit DDR AGP 4X/8X Video Card ($60 USD). The model is: 100566L-RD BK-HS

Or the PowerColor ATI Radeon 9800SE 128MB 256-bit DDR AGP 4X/8X Video Card.

Oddly, the MUI can set 2048x4096x32 as the maximum setting.

I set these extra resolutions up in the Ambient v1.41 / MUI 3.9 Settings -> Systems Settings -> Screenmode profiles:

1600x1200 @ 77Hz
1792x1344 @ 69Hz
1856x1392 @ 66Hz
1920x1440 @ 64Hz
2048x1536 @ 61Hz

There some other little things to fiddle with...

Seems to work on most of the OpenGL demos I'm running on it.

Great to hear that MOS 1.5 is really being worked on! A faster cpu and MOS 1.5 with altivec support and I wont be able to resist it anymore!
If not something totally unexpected happens with AOS4 hardware situation offcourse.

@ Miky060 (although it has been years!)

Hot off the milktruck!!!!

The Sapphire RADEON X1600Pro AGP announcement:

http://www.sapphiretech.com/en/pressfiles/29_reg1.doc

Now if we get those MorphOS 3d Radeon drivers working with this video card... Waahooo!!!!!!
