Received a test radeon.card version from Elbox and when i tested it: Works!
I can test and use the Radeon screenmodes now

Sallinen, have you received the new radeon.card?

EDIT: and Elbox adviced me to use MMU=Yes & VoodooMem=16

VooodoMem=16 ?! weird one :-)

I received also the 1.10 (is it the 1.8 actually?-)
but it didn't do any difference, still the crash
no answer from Elbox after they sented me the driver and I told that it didn't work.

EDIT: gonna try the MMU & VoodooMem settings also, but I'll be in Glasgow till 27th so I'll report when I'm back at home.

With only Voodoo3 installed i use VoodooMem=15, MMU=No. But with Voodoo3 & Radeon together VoodooMem=16, MMU=Yes. And i tried the 2 other possible combinations (VoodooMem=16, MMU=No ; VoodooMem=15, MMU=Yes) but then after clicking on Radeon monitor icon:

1. my miggy freezed after awhile
2. there was graphics corruption/distortion (and maybe a freeze afterwards)
3. screen requesters for Voodoo/Radeon didn't work or give any screenmodes or any list of them whatsoever (Wipeout 2097).

So the only variable setting that worked was VoodooMem=16, MMU=Yes. Workbench and that sort of stuff seem to work OK but i wasn't able to play e.g. glSokoban or Wipeout 2097 that use Warp3D. glSokoban just gives the window with gray background and Wipeout 2097 gives WarpOS/PowerPC exception error.

Good to know Bamiga

Maybe Changing the VoodooMem & MMU settings in the various possible combinations Sallinen can get that its cards work

I guess the VoodooMem only affects Voodoo cards, and I've tried with MMU and without it, no change.

I've also tried with 4MB and 8MB memory settings etc, no help :O

@Sallinen
Do you already tested your Radeon in PC to see if it works right?
If so, maybe it´s time to contact Elbox again and explain that the radeon.card they sent to you doesn´t work.
Or, if you can and want to, test your card in someone else mediator with the driver already sent by Elbox.

I dont think you can use the mmu version of the drivers with ppc card ?

regardless, the medconfig prog should be able to set the main settings up for your card and advise on and hardware settings.

Youll probably need to setup the warp3D memory manualy in WarpOS prefs. use showconfig to see what address the the memory is at and put that in the warps vid memory setting box. This should solve grey screen when opening a 3d screen.

The mediator is a horibly hacky solution and im done with mine. went back to BVision for a simpler life Would have liked a Grex to try though and run the voodoo card from the ppccard.

Yeah, I've tested it on PC and it worked.
Elbox haven't been answering after I told them that not even the latest driver works..

Maybe I should just try finding another card and hope it works.

Elbox told me that my Radeon 9200 SHOULD WORK with the current driver.
So - time to look for another 9200/9250.

Do you guys know if the one's that can be bought from ebay for ~30 euros work at all?

Anyone got 1.12 yet? I haven't received any mail from Elbox.

Ehh, unable to decide between these two Radeons:

first

and

second

The first one was suggested by AlfaRomeo, so I guess I'll go for it..

I'd go for the second radeon, it looks almost like mine compared to the first one. So it might just work
