ELBOX Computer: Neue Software für Mediator PCI-Busboard

ELBOX COMPUTER - Krakow, 29 March 2001

REVOLUTION BEGINS:

COMPLETELY NEW SOFTWARE

FOR MEDIATOR PCI BUSBOARD

pci.library ver.3.0

Voodoo.card ver.2.0

MediatorNET.device ver.2.0

ELBOX Computer programmers have been committed to preparing this new revolutionary software for the last couple of months.

Enhancements made in the programming stage offer the user performance that has never been available for Amiga users before.

The new pci.library ver.3.0 enables access to the Config Space, I/O Space and Memory Space in PCI cards directly in the address space of the turbo card processor. Access to the PCI Memory Space is executed through the continuous 1.7 GB area.

The new PCI library supports all the turbo cards with processors: 68030, 68040 (& PPC603e), 68060 (& PPC603e).

The new Voodoo.card driver ver.2.0 enables full control over the memory of the graphic card used as a frame buffer by the P96 system.

This allows using the maximum resolutions offered by the Voodoo3/4/5 cards.

And now something special: the new Voodoo driver offers the possibility of overclocking memory in Voodoo cards for the first time in Amiga.

We are sure this new piece of software will make your work and enjoyment much more effective and playful.

In reply to Comment 15 (Darrin):
The same mechanism must be implemented on the PPC side, otherwise things will not work from the PPC side. Pointers are incoherent, i.e. a bitmap is mapped to high memory on the 68k side where there is no memory in the PPC version.
