RadeonHD - First Screen

Posted by Hans de Ruiter

Today marks the first milestone in the RadeonHD for Amiga OS 4 project. A Radeon X1300 graphics card has successfully been programmed to open a 1280x1024 true-colour screen and an image has been displayed. The graphics card was a VisionTek Radeon X1300 256MB PCI card that has been plugged into one of the PCI slots in my Amiga-one for over half a year now. With this success, I am now confident that I can, in time, write a proper Amiga OS 4.x driver for this card. Thus, this project is now revealed on this website for the first time.

Whilst the hardware documentation was useful to a certain degree, none of the documentation detailed the AtomBIOS. The AtomBIOS contains code written for a custom virtual machine (the AtomBIOS parser) written by ATI (now AMD). Thus, the RadeonHD driver source-code for Linux and its AtomBIOS parser was drawn upon extensively in order to figure out how to correctly initialize and program this card. 

At present, the current RadeonHD source-code is not an actual driver and, hence, cannot be used as part of the OS. However, the code could be used as part of a driver. I have requested the Picasso96 driver development kit for Amiga OS 4.0. In the mean-time, the code will slowly be improved and extended within the current test frame-work.

Please note that this is still a long way off from a proper driver. There is much work still to be done. It will take stome time, particularly considering that this is a spare time project. Whilst the debug log for the first test has also been placed on the main project page, it is expected that the project page will be updated periodically to reflect this project's status. Thus, the debug log is presented below as a permanent record.
