    How can TinyGL for Radeon HD cards not support 3D acceleration on those cards when that's the sole purpose of TinyGL? Isn't this what the ninth public TinyGL beta brought a year ago for all TeraScale2-based cards? Or do you mean this works with HD5450 on X5000/Sam460, but not on PCIe-based PowerMac G5?

    Is it the PCIe G5 or MorphOS on the PCIe G5, i.e. is it also this picky when running Linux?

    These are all R500 cards. AtomBIOS versions older than that from R500 are not supported by MorphOS.
