Emulation: New, QEMU-specific graphics card driver for AmigaOS 4
QEMU developer Zoltan Balaton has released ATIRadeon.chip, a replacement for the graphics card driver included with AmigaOS 4. His driver is limited to the functions of the still relatively rudimentary ATI emulation in QEMU and therefore works flawlessly under this emulation—however, it is not compatible with real hardware.
The new driver supports higher resolutions and color depths than the previous combination of the AmigaOS SM502 driver and QEMU SM501 emulation. The driver has only been tested with QEMU 11.0, which was released two days ago; older versions may produce graphical glitches or may not work at all with this driver.
