@Niolator
Yes i know, because of that i use a Radeon 9000 Pro .
Which gfx card do you use?
If you want a 9200 then take a look into the Alinea Computer shop at:
http://shop.alinea-computer.de
Here can you find a 9200 with 250 Mhz chip clock and 400Mhz memory clock or a Radeon 9000 (passive cooling and only 64 MB ram) with the same clockspeeds.

Done.

Good question.

Personally, I think we should have a couple of options.

We have already paid for the OS4 license so some people will rightfully refuse to pay any more. Those people can have an ISO to download and burn their own. For those without broadband I suppose Hyperion should offer a free CD via snail mail though.

There are also some people that would gladly pay some more for a nice OS4 final CD in a sleeve or similar. Maybe include a little special touch like you get with movie DVD special editions these days. I know I wouldn't mind paying some reasonable amount (e.g. $25 USD) for a fancy packaged OS4 final.

Printed manual? No thanks. I'll print it myself if I need it. For those that want one they can buy a printed manual in my opinion.

TSI109 has support for PCI Express and DDR memory, so the panda for example might come whit PSI Express, after a redesign for the Amiga market, (TS109 is basically cut down version of TSI110)

TSI107 has only PCI and SDRAM

You are correct. The Matrox thing applied to AmigaAnywhere (formally AmigaDE) only and is years in the past and long dead.

There is only support for some Radeon cards and the Voodoo 3 (maybe more Voodoo cards?) in the current OS4. What OS4 final will support is a decision for Hyperion to make.

I don't know what the status is of SNAP in OS4 but the makers of the technology have recently discontinued it. This doesn't mean we can't have SNAP of course but it does mean any future gfx cards beyond the current crop will not be supported by SNAP.

@neon32:

The AmigaOne motherboard has a universal AGP-port (at least the XE, I have never seen a micro).

The problem is that it outputs 3.3v only so it would not be wise to try a card that only supports 1.5v (AGP 4x) or 0.8v (AGP 8x) as I did. Radeon 9500 and Radeon 9700 does support 3.3v as they are universal cards so they should work fine in an AmigaOne.

The Radeon 9600 and 9800 series are also supposed to support 3.3v but that is obviously dependent on which company who manufacture them. There are people who uses Radeon 9600?s and 9800 in their AmigaOnes as you can see on Inuitionbase.com (of course only in 2D yet).

@AmigaPapst:
Yeah, I was on the hunt for a Radeon 9000pro or a 9200 but it seems as they are really hard to find (at least here in Sweden), especially a Radeon 9000pro. I would prefer that as it is the fastest card currently supported by Warp3D.

But if the most graphics intensive games available for the AmigaOne doesn?t demand more than a Radeon 9250 I will have to settle with that for now. Radeon 9250?s are really just marginally slower than a Radeon 9000/9200.

@Jurassicc & Outcast:
The reason to why I am scrapping my Radeon 9100 is that it is not supported by Warp3d and who knows, the same bug that causes it to not work in Warp3D might be there in Mesa/OpenGL for AmigaOS 4 too.

Would something like ag2html or guide2html from Aminet work? I haven't tried them myself, but you might want to take a look at them.

The FAQ in AmigaGuide is an excellent idea. Great to see you're working on it.

For me that is not a sore spot, because my Eyetech
AmigaOne is exactly and even better as that zico-stuff.

I think it was meant to give an idea what way we did
had to go with the new Amiga hardware.

And as we now look at the SAM440 and the Micro AmigaOne,
well who would have thought that those designs would be the
ones to follow.

It was just a snapshot of what could have been a start.

Edit: look at the two systems:

The zico specification are as follows;

One AmigaDE friendly host processor (PPC, x86, Arm, SH4, MIPS)
64MB+ memory
Next Generation Matrox graphics card
Creative EMU10K1 based audio card
10 GB+ HD
CD/DVD
USB 1.0
Firewire
10/100 Mbps Ethernet
56k modem
Spare PCI slots for expandibility

My Eyetech AmigaOne specification are as follows;

One Amiga OS 4.0 friendly host processor (PPC)
64MB+ memory
AGP or PCI Next Generation Radeon or Vodoo graphics card
Creative EMU10K1 based audio card or better
10 GB+ HD
CD/DVD
USB 1.0
(no Firewire)
10/100 Mbps Ethernet
(no 56k modem)
Spare PCI slots for expandibility

@Topic
I would recommed you a Radeon 9000 (or PRO) for the AmigaOne, because it is a chaep and fast graphic card for os4 in 3D and 2D.

@RomanceClip
Sorry OT:
This smile -> is more suitable. Look at the most Heino pictures.

PS: I like your avatar.

That's strange : not earlier than this week-end I updated the FTPMount guide with CubicIDE and experienced no problem at all !!
Can you see what is the difference between the working file and the other ?
In CubicIDE you can validate the guide : what is the result of this validation ?
If CubicIDE produces bad guide files I think you should try to get in contact with the author (Dietmar Eilert, see contact infos at http://www.developers.2go.cc/contact.html)
If you want you can email me the file to see if I can produce the same error with my CubicIDE setup.

EDIT: typo
EDIT2: on OS4 to see graphically what are the differences between the two files you can use AMUIDiff, see http://abalaban.free.fr/index_amiga_projets.html (just some auto-promotion

No problem. The Zico stuff has been used as a stick to beat Amiga OS users with for ages so I guess it is still a sore spot.

@Romanceclip
how about using a every now and then i noticed just about every one of your posts have this
gets a little offensive every post !!!!

consider this a second warning

@Mitch

Thank you for answering my questions (without biting my head off!)

While I am slightly annoyed about the Matrox - at least I can understand the technical reasons behind it as you guys have explained it to me.

Do any of the possible NG Amiga's actually have AGP slots on them to support cards like the 9700/9800 anyway?

@ssolie
I hope we can see the panda board soon.
It doesn't work:
http://www.troikang.com/about.html

@Romance:

No, the only brands supported are Radeon and Voodoo. The reason is that they are the only two manufacturers who are prepared to release technical information that allows us to write drivers for them.

You can read what you like into "Troika isn't one of them". Some legitimate meanings:

1) Troika is not among them (none of them);
2) Troika is not one of them (but IS the other);
3) Troika is both of them (two models).

In any case, that was said many months ago and may have changed.
