RadeonHD for Amiga OS 4.x - The First Project

Posted by Hans de Ruiter

The first truly personal development project is finally online. Over half a year ago I installed a Radeon X1300 PCI graphics card into my Amiga-on, with the intention to develop an Amiga OS 4.x driver for such cards. Till now this project has been kept silent because I do not with to announce something that will never be finished. Today, the first major milestone was reached; the graphics card was programmed with a 1280x1024 true-colour screen mode and an image was displayed. 

This is still a long way off from a true graphics driver. However, I am now confident enough that I can finish this driver that I have requested the necessary development documentation, and put the project pages online. Read more here.
