Anybody here have BeOs drivers for ati Radeon VE ? I went to BeBits, but nothing there. Also, I tried to get drivers for expert 128 and rage (all in wonder), but even though they have an upgrade, I cant seem to find the drivers.
I suppose BeOs is "dead" when it comes to development. Sad......

Thanks

Although there is a leaked beta version of the Radeon driver this one doesn't work with the Radeon VE.
The only option would be the VESA 2.0 mode, which you can enable with VesaAccepted from BeBits.com.

Hey Mike... where can I go to find information on this driver? Any idea when it's gonna be done?

I've got a Radeon VE as well, and I'd love to get BeOS up and running.

Thanks,
Jeff

Jeff, as I said that driver does NOT work with the
VE chipset only the older ones.
We can be lucky that we have this beta version
driver that must be leaked by a tester, otherwise
there would be no Radeon driver at all.
