Hi All,

I have one graphics card installed. It's my MorphOS machine so I don't need another graphics card.

Linux works also on this X5000. Screenshot: ec2315010d01bf86fccebc18550c28a2.png

How can I use only my fonts in OWB? I would like that my OWB ignores the font settings from the web sites.

Thanks,
Christian

What got me confused foremost was the strange use of the term 'screenshot' :-)

Hi All,

I just want to say that I am very happy with MorphOS on my AmigaOne X5000/20.

Some screenshots:

thats awesome. Man..I havent used my G5 in I dont know how long...or my g4 laptop.

You're missing out IMO. MorphOS is really great these days, especially with Chrysalis Pack!

I'll power it up. I think its up-to-date with MorphOS. I'll check.

Oops.. I'm on 3.12.

Hi All,

I experimented more with MorphOS and it works fantastic on my X5000/20!

It runs also in a virtual QEMU machine: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/ee/d5/b3/eed5b39df93d74f263fcb747859f533b.png

P5040 runs a full G4 CPU emulation here (i.e. no KVM), right? Btw, QEMU can also emulate Rage 128 Pro instead of SM501/502.

Yes, I think the Rage 128 works better than the SM502. Just type

Yes that's correct. I also tested it with KVM-PR on my X1000 but it doesn't boot with KVM-PR enabled. The emulation of the Rage 128 works only on my PC. On my AmigaOnes it has wrong colors and other issues. Maybe endian issues. I don't know. The emulation of MorphOS isn't important for me because it runs very well on my X5000/20.

MorphOS update instructions with a USB stick:

Choose "Command Line" from the U-Boot menu

Type the following commands:

Looking good Christian,

I would love to give MorphOS a try but with only one X5000 i would have to change my Videocard.

I would be nice if based on the Radeon Driver sourcecode by Hans de Ruiter, a MorphOS driver for the AMD Radeon SI and RX cards would appear

Quote:

I believe some of the HD 7xxx and RX 200 series are supported already (albeit without hardware overlay and 3D support), as seen here.

Quote:
Don't think so as the hardware page states "R7 250, R7 260 and HD78x0 graphics cards are not supported."

The other Rx or 7xxx cards listed on the page are no Polaris cards. AMD has the habit to re-label some old cards when a new series arises, e.g. a Radeon R5 230 is a relabeled HD6450 which is a minimally improved HD5450 itself. All 3 sharing the same chipset which is certainly not the same the other Radeon Rx cards (being Polaris).

I see some of the cards are already supported. I will check what chipset my R7 250 is using.
Then again, 3D etc support would be very welcome.

@Skateman

The best card for X5000 with MorphOS is X1950XT. It supports 3d, overlay, 2d acceleration. it is quite cheap but powerfull. It is also supported by AmigaOs4.x although without 3d.

@zukow

Thanks but for me that`s just not the way to go for now.

What would have to be supported are HD77xx (GCN1) and newer cards. MorphOS support currently ends with HD76xx (TeraScale 2). The R5 2xx cards currently supported are all TeraScale 2 also. These are not to be confused with the OS4-supported RX 4xx/5xx cards, which are GCN4 (Polaris).

> The other Rx or 7xxx cards listed on the page are no Polaris cards.

Even worse than not being Polaris/GCN4 cards, they are not even GCN1 cards ;-)

> Radeon R5 230 is a relabeled HD6450 which is a minimally improved

Both R5 230 and HD6450 use Caicos (RV910), but HD5450 uses Cedar (RV810). They are certainly not the same.

> which is certainly not the same the other Radeon Rx cards (being Polaris).

There are also many Rx cards between TeraScale 2 and GCN4/Polaris:
- GCN1: R5/R7/R9 240/250/265/270/280/330/340/350/370/430/435/450/520
- GCN2: R7/R9/RX 260/290/295/360/390/455
- GCN3: R9 285/380/Fury/Nano/530

> I see some of the cards are already supported.

I don't think so.

> I will check what chipset my R7 250 is using.

It's Oland, which is GCN1.

> Then again, 3D etc support would be very welcome.

2D support for GCN1 or GCN4 would be a good start ;-)

> The best card for X5000 with MorphOS is X1950XT.

X1950XTX should be a tad faster, but probably also more expensive.

Hi All,

I am pleased to say my X5000/20 is running nicely with MorphOS 3.14 as well. It has been fun playing around with Wayfarer v1.1 too. I wrote up a blog post this month on it if anyone is interested:

http://amigax1000.blogspot.com/2020/10/wayfarer-11-web-browser-using-morphos.html

I bought the X5000 and Radeon X1950 Pro graphics card to run MorphOS. I have an SB Live PCI card in it as well.

MorphOS updates have come thick and fast in 2020, and new software to play with too!

Here are some earlier blog posts I did on MorphOS 3.12, 3.13 and Iris email client during 2020 if these are of interest also:

http://amigax1000.blogspot.com/2020/01/morphos-312-on-x5000.html

http://amigax1000.blogspot.com/2020/03/morphos-313-and-iris-beta-71-email-on.html

I look forward to seeing the future MorphOS updates for my X5000!

Catcha,
Epsilon

@Epsilon,

you can fix most of the 'browser unsupported' warnings by changing the User Agent from the menu.

@Epsilon

Nice article on your Blog. Good to see morphos an wayfarer running Google Apps on the X5000.
For now i have to stick with donating the developers. Hope that one day my X5000 will be running morphOS as well with a graphicscard that fully supports both OSes.. (OS4.x - MorphOS)

@ Epsilon

Very thorough and full article that you obviously have spent lots of time writing. Very nice, thanks!

Wayfarer does indeed not support media playback, which is a well known fact. Uncertain if it ever will AFAIK. I hope it will, since it's part of a contemporary HTML5+ web experience.

Maybe speed will improve slightly, but I don't think you should expect miracles in this regard, I think much of it comes down to WebKit and the rest of the world having moved very far away from our 1.5 decade old HW. There is no way around ancient and slow CPU performance for applications simply requiring high performance. The experience should be slightly faster on 2004-2005 level Mac's, but they are no speed daemons either in a contemporary context. MorphOS needs a platform migration urgently.
