    I'm pretty sure the results on a X5000 and PowerMac PCIe PPC will be different since:

    1. Bigfoot is developing on a X5000.
    2. The way PCIe is handled by both systems is different.

    Perhaps we can purchase Bigfoot a local PowerMac for him to test his drivers and donate to the MorphOS team to encourage the official support of these PowerMacs.

    Yes, it's been well established that the PCIe graphics cards that don't work on PowerMac11,2 usually do work on X5000. ernsteiswuerfel (and others?) are in the process of finding a pattern regarding what it is that makes cards fail on PowerMac11,2.

    Recently either the little DVI to DP device failed (not showing green) or the DVI port in my new monitor failed.

    So I went back to a DVI to HDMI cable and it works perfectly.

    Is there a better standard to use? DP or HDMI?
