First impressions of the Amiga OS 4.0b : Comment 43 of 86 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Don Cox on 11-Feb-2004 13:56 GMT | In reply to Comment 29 (Kjetil): "How the hell can Graphic.library work without lowlevel libraries like Picasso96/SNAP?"
P96 works, but in emulation, so it is just slower than it will be finally.
SNAP will increase the number of cards supported but there are drivers for several graphics cards now.
The computer would work fine if 98% of the OS was emulated (as in Amithlon). Converting to native only increases speed, it doesn't make more things work.
Also, please remember that AmigaOS is modular. You can make many changes to a module without affecting the rest of the OS, provided the interfaces stay the same. |
