There are a number of new VFD CyberGraphX V5 driver projects in the works. One such project has been with ATI. The CyberGraphX V5 driver has been working with the Radeon range of cards from ATI for a few months now. Most all of the real work is now done by the CGX drivers not externaly.. such as display setup/init, 2d, ect. This means in time that the driver can be back-ported to run on any PCI adaptors such as the G-Rex PCI adaptor. The Radeon VE and Radeon 7500 models, along with a few others have been tested and are working great. Currently the driver supports the PC based BIOS Radeon cards out of the box. Here is a snapshot of MUIScreenMode running under CGX V5 on a ATI Radeon:

Only "Most"? And externally means by the standard OF display driver?
So we have (mostly) accelerated 2D drivers for Radeon 256, Radeon VE,
Radeon 7000, Radeon 7200 and Radeon 7500, correct? |

2D drivers are all very well but who is writing the 3D drivers? Hyperion? |

Yes, but not for the free use by CGX users. |

Because software developers have to eat ?
CGX is related to MorphOS, and we know how the relationship is between those 2 camps. |

They might possibly have prior to Bplan calling them an "Unfriendly
Developer" and refusing them a Pegasos dev board. |

Posted by Turrican on 29-Jul-2002 06:36 GMT | There are some 3D drivers being written for Morphos using Rave.
Warp3D is not the only solution and Hyperion are not the only people with 3D knowledge on the Amiga.
