@retrofaza has been porting 3D software lately. Hopefully he or someone else will step in. We do have DOOM3 for 64-bit though Smile

If the core driver keeps changing... why not update it to current gen, instead of keeping it always 10 years behind?


I'm aiming to get the driver updated "relativelly quickly" so I can move on other migration topics and finally close the migration to 64-bit. As terminills noted, newer driver comes with more dependencies which means more time and effort. Once migration is done, then there will be space to re-visit this topic.[/quote]

I see. I'm just saying cause each time you devs update the drivers, seems to be a hard work, so instead of climbing the mountain twice, maybe doing it just once would be half the job, even we have to wait longer, but you must know better Like

Good news!

The new driver is showing first signs of life - detecting monitor resolutions. See screenshot.

Cards to test the new driver have arrived. Less then 100 euro for all of them, so totally affordable.

deadwood: First of all, thank you for your hard work.

Are these GPU's that will be supported by the driver (at least initially), so I can plan to get one of those models and it will probably work?
Which one will you target first (at least for native resolutions and 3D OpenGL if possible)?

Again, thanks man, great work

Yes, I expect each of them to eventually work (assuming the original nouveau driver works with them, which it should). I'd hold off with purchasing until the ported driver is more mature - I don't know yet which one will be the first to be supported.
