    Andre can you lock this thread?

    You guys, quit fighting.

    We did support the Volari V3XT for a long time, and discontinued that support mid-2007 simply because it was too difficult to integrate drivers into Linux, and MorphOS was perpetually delayed at the time (and the V3XT driver didn't arrive until the second release anyway).

    We did ship lots of Open Clients with Volari cards. We did replace some of them with Radeons at request. The plan was to get the Linux stuff working, supply the MorphOS team with cards and documentation, and build an Efika with an on-board graphics chip.

    This was still while the 5121e was on the drawing board; an interesting new development and not something we could make a product out of.

    In any case we're pretty much moving forward with ATI-based hardware on the Open Client, and the integrated graphics in i.MX515 and any other ARM based SoC and low availability of the AGP cards obviates their use anyway.
