Re: X.org and A1200 AGA Graphics

Hello.

It is possible to use the old Xamiga with a newer release.
I don't remember exactly but I think NetBSD 7.x was the last that came
with Xamiga? Extract the relevant tar-balls* and put /usr/X11R6/bin
in your path _before_ /usr/X11R7/bin.

*I also can't remember if it was enough with just the xserver.tgz or if
you needed more.

Of course NetBSD 7 is EOL and isn't receiving security updates.

Let me know how it goes. :)

Hi All,

I have not attempted a NetBSD install on my Amiga 1200 yet but I was told there was not X.org graphics support for the Amiga 1200 in 9.2, is that right?

If so is there anyway to get X Windows going on an Amiga A1200?

I DO have a 68030, 68882 and 128MB RAM in the form of a Phase 5 Blizzard 1230 MK IV.

Thanks,

Dan
