OS4 Classic GFX-problems..

@TiredOfLife

It doesnt work yet, I have tried several sollutions, none work, but Rogue is on the hunt for a new kernel, I have betatested one of them, but with that kernel my Amiga woulndt even boot.. I hoping for a working kernel soon..

@TiredOfLife

Bad Luck.. still my system hang up.. could you tell me which version did you installed and maybe a step by step guide could help me..

@nubechecorre

Update was 3.10

The PCI.library is 6.5

@Alkaron

Ok thanks i' ll retry it

Just run the installation from the update sent by Elbox.

@TiredOfLife

you mean MediatorUP 3.10 ?

@All

I just got a new kernel from Hans-Joerg this afternoon, I am about to try it out tonight.. Hopefully this solves my problems..

edit:

YES it dit.. it activated the PCi-bridge, but I got some corrupted graphics after a while, strange vertical lines.. I will test with some other voodoo-card later on..

@Alkaron

Got a new kernal from him too today, haven't tested it yet

The vertical line problem is what I have had all the time + strange gfx around the mouse pointer

@Amigaz

Back to OS3.9 again I guess.. getting used to it.. I didnt gain much speed compared to OS3.9 it even felt slower from times to times.. but it might be just right now...

@Alkaron

Same here on my A1200, the speed is about as fast as with OS3.9 on some stuff like moving windows, opening drawers etc

My A4000T, CSPPC + Cybervision 64 is about 2-3 times faster when it comes to those things

Isn't the Mediator 1200 limitied to some stupid Zorro II speed?

@Alkaron

Yes mate, Medaitor update 3.10

But don't use the newer voodoo.card from MediatorUp3.10,, instead use the one from MediatorUP3.09. It won't corrupt grahphics.

@bamiga2002

Haven't got 3.09 only 3.10.
Haven't got corrupted graphics either.

@TiredOfLife

I tried to contact elbox for some news.. no answer from them.... anyone tried to contact them ?

Any news about support for the pciboard on mediator ?

@nubechecorre

Unofficially, yes.
Somebody within Elbox says it should be no problem.
Also still talking about the Shark happening.

Gone back to 3.9 in the meantime.
4.0 is just to slow.
I expect this could be down to using the 68k drivers under OS4.

@TiredOfLife

Glad to hear that

I just sit and wait for other good news

Thanks to all and OS4 Team for amiga os for classic, it is something that i had never thought it could possible..

( hope my english is right !.. sigh )

On the subject of the graphics corruption fix, I am awaiting my new system to continue the work. Right now, sending kernels to external testers does produce too much "lag", so I rather go back to what I was working on prior to that and await the day when I have my new system up and running so I can work more directly.

This means unfortunately that you all have to wait a bit longer for the Voodoo graphics fix, I'm sorry for that, but there isn't much I can do right now.

Hi.
I see that only Voodoo users are reporting GFX problems on OS4. Does it run 100% ok on C/BVision cards?

@Amigamancer

Yes, the problems are Mediator specific, not even Voodoo. The Amiga 4000 is not affected.

@Rogue

Ok, thanks!
I have an Amiga 1200 btw.
