PUAE GUI

Even the GUI opens up:

It is not really working either, but it at least sometimes is a real advantage, that gtk-mui exists :).

Dual Displays on X1000

As regular followers of my blog will know, I have a dual video card setup on my AmigaOne X1000 - a Radeon 9250 PCI and the Radeon HD card included in the X1000. The 9250 card is used to play games that require hardware 3D acceleration until the Radeon HD 3D hardware drivers are available.

Until then: Keep calm and Amiga On!
