Why is Radeon SI graphics cards not 3D supported?

It is NOT a complaint :-)

Need to test a 512MB card and well as a powered pciex1 to pciex16 riser cable.
If either or both work in various combinations then there will be many more options available to us.
Any news on the tests? :-)

Re: Skip UBoot animation?

U-Boot is not a Hyperion product, so I suggest you contact AmigaKit/A-Eon for the latest copy. They can also give you the little utility that will update it for you under OS4, without using U-Boot itself (requires a running OS4 system, of course).

I second that! :D

If anybody could upload the latest Uboot, that would be great. I am running the older "Costel-version" and I would very much like to get my boot time dowm.

Thank you in advance!

Thank you. Could not decrease but increasing a couple of MB did the trick :) .
