Whatever happened to the promised support for PowerUp? While people are discussing the meaning of "promise" and "support" I want to ask what the final outcome of MorphOS for PowerUP machines is. web archive (20030602171643) of www.morphos.net/support.php3. Was it ever promised? Not? Versions? Support? When? The mention of CSPPC and BlizzPPC was there for more than 3 years before it vanished when morphos.de/morphos.net became ..uhm.. genesized. :)

| Where is MorphOS for CSPPC? : Comment 37 of 78 | ANN.lu |
| Posted by itix on 26-Jul-2004 20:25 GMT | In reply to Comment 33 (Christophe Decanini):
"And what happens if the CVPPC driver is not working with the actual CyberGfx ?" It works because there is PPC native CVPPC driver already. Some other gfx cards maybe don't :) AGA doesn't work for sure because it lacks hi/truecolor modes... "What happens if your 68k driver bangs into the CIA to get some timing ?" It is not problem. Even some PPC native drivers for MorphOS BPPC/CSPPC bang HW directly. Playsid.library worked perfectly on my BPPC and it needs CIA timer + Paula. But I never got my CDRW working in my MorphOS BPPC setup. "What happens if your 68k driver is playing with the MMU ?" Anything like this wont work. Or drivers that do something stupid (and there are many). "Don't get me wrong, I would really like to run MorphOS 1.4 and above on my classic but I understand priorities." I agree. And even if it is released "unsupported" there is always someone bombing developers with amigappc questions... |
