AROS should run on almost any i386 PC hardware so long as the CPU is newer than an i486, and has a "Floating Point Unit (FPU)". Ideally around 700Mhz and above with at least 256MB of memory is recommended for desktops and around 1GHz and at least 256MB for laptops/notebooks/netbooks. For web browsing, etc above 1GB is usually needed and offers the option to run web browsers, media players and other hard disk heavy usage from RAM: disk.


Motherboards supported

  • Most Intel mobos are supported (Skt 775 is ok but newer is better) - additional pci / pci-e cards may be needed for networking, audio, etc
  • AMD based socket 939 am2 am2+ am3+, fusion and am4 ryzen based systems work but additional pci / pci-e cards may be needed



Supported graphics cards (gfx)

  • Nvidia 2D and 3D 2005-2011. Nouveau supports 2D from TNT through to fermi gtx5xx and 3D acceleration 5xxx to gtx4xx. It's worth noting however that support isn't guaranteed. Nor will potential power of a card reflect its performance under AROS.
  • Intel 2D and 3D 2006-2009. 2D for many old netbooks and motherboards. 3D for many early netbooks and motherboards
  • AMD/ATI 2D only. External monitor support only (ie little laptop internal support) for Radeon 7000 through to x600. Experimental 2D version for up to HD3xxx
  • VESA 2D fallback modes for all graphic cards (GPUs) and with screen dragging. Matrox implementation of VESA, based on testing of g200, g400, g450 and g550 typically results in slow performance.


Sound wise there are the

  • HDaudio for intel and AMD netbooks, ultrabooks, notebooks and motherboards
  • CMI8738 C-Media for PCI and PCI Express
  • for the semi professional some early VIA Envy24 pci family based sound cards
  • Creative cards based on EMU10K1 chips SBLive (early Sound Blaster Live)
  • Sound Blaster 128 aka SB16 PCI
  • some intel based AC97 codecs


Supported network cards are

  • rtl8169 and rtl8168 which also includes the rtl8111 and rtl8110
  • 3com Etherlink cards
  • intel pro100
  • rtl8139 and includes rtl8101 and rtl8100
  • most via based ethernet
  • rtl8029
  • atheros 5000 wireless


It's not too difficult to put together a fully supported dedicated AROS machine these days.

Read more about peoples experience here at amiga.org and here at Aros-Exec.



It is very hard to recommend a completely supported motherboard because as soon as newer motherboards arrive so their features change subtly, often introducing non supported parts like ethernet and audio. It is a moving target.

  • mini-itx motherboard will only get you 1 pci or pci-e slot
  • micro mATX or uATX will have more, typically 2 pci-e or pci slots which helps if any onboard features are not supported.
  • full atx will have more slots available

N.B It is frustrating when a piece of hardware is not supported. Hardware documentation can run to over 100 pages and a lot of hardware do not have any public documentation anyway. Chips from differentanufacturers for sound, graphics, SATA, etc. vary just as much, unless they follow a standard such as HDAudio, AHCI etc.

Coding drivers is a far cry from Hello World programs or even a port of existing software. If you do actually want to try then get a hold of documentation on the relevant hardware and start there. Alternatively you could try to find some BSD, MIT or MPL licence drivers as a point of reference. Please , do not think you can just adapt strings in a driver for different strings, it does not work that way. You will need to start from scratch for each new bit of hardware. Device driver programming require embedded skills, like manipulation of bits within registers, good debugging skills, dealing with interrupts, lots of patience, etc.


The following specific chipsets and drivers are also available - use Tools/PCITool to confirm Vendor and Product IDs - Please let us know any mistakes or any information to be added, to this General Chat list AROS-Exec or here AROS World

Audio Chipsets

If sound beeps in AHI prefs after Music set then some support is there. Select more than one channel for multiple audio streams, set frequency up to 44khz or higher and set the volume if not already set. Ensure you set the music unit 0 to 3 which allows the extra features of the audio card like microphone, line-out, etc).

1996-2000 sb128.audio aka SB16 PCI

as per CREATIVE's website, the model number is the first two digits on the front and first two digits on the back. my card says CT4810 and 161TK110B 995; this translates to CT4816 as the model.

The original AudioPCI 3000 card with the ES1370 had a master clock crystal for 44.1 kHz (22.5792 MHz), used an AKM codec (AK4531, non-AC97) and had 4 channel output; Creative later modified the design with a crystal for 48 kHz (24.576 MHz) and Sigmatel AC97 codec (apparently there also was a CT4700 SB128 with a CT5507 chip, AK4531, 22.5792 MHz crystal and TDA7360 speaker power amp). The issue with these cards involved never quite eliminate the effects of resampling on the 64V, it also shows signs of undersized coupling caps. What I liked about these Ensoniq cards is the automatically engaged headphone amplifier (with a 4565 opamp).

Porting involved 40897, 40898 configure, 40900 bugs, 40901 further bugs, 40913 memory IO fixes, 40914 irq fix.

1998-2003 emu10kx.audio - Creative Labs SoundBlaster Live! and Audigy

Look for emu10k1 or emu10k2 chipset on the audio card and NOT emu10kx

the green jack is for the main speaker pair AND headphones, so manual switching will be required If your card is wired for the "AC97" standard, then it's up to your headphone jack to switch the green speaker output in and out the headphone jack has Normally-closed contacts that will open on insertion, which breaks the signal path back to the sound card (FP_RETURN)

2005-20xx HDAUDIO.audio (formerly known as “Azalia”)

The HD Audio standard was designed to be pinout interchangeable so that the sound support could change easily and quickly.

Using Prefs/AHI ensure you set the music unit and at least Units 0 (where most audio comes from) in top left drop down menu to HDaudio - HIFI in the section below. Set Units 1 or 2 to microphone or other outputs. Plus allow more than one channel for multiple audio streams and set frequency up to 44khz or higher on the right hand side of the ahi prefs. If sound beeps when you press the test button then all should be OK.

This driver is made up of two parts a Controller + a Codec. The ProductID and VendorID are for the audio controller only - the important additional codec is NOT so easily identified. Some codecs missing at the moment. Use QUERYD below to find out the codec used.

HDAudio standard has headphones on a separate DAC, and it's up to the driver.. it can even send different audio to the headphones without interrupting the main (green) outputs

Things to try if sound not working

  • try to connect something to the audio jack, maybe it is not playing on internal speakers or vice versa
  • make sure you try and select all music units e.g. unit0, unit1....
  • even if PCI ID's are in HDaudio.config, this doesn't mean it is working, it is the codec that matters
  • it might be internally muted
  • try an earlier version, just rename existing one first


If the boot sound is enabled, you have to use Bifteck to capture AHI debug output. In the GRUB menu, press E on your selected entry, then add "debug=memory" to the options (alongside ATA=, vesa= etc.). Then Ctrl-X to boot. Once booted, run Tools/Debug/Bifteck.

or

  • try adding QUERYD to the start of ENVARC:hdaudio.config file (also known as Prefs/Env-Archive/) ie. on the first line
  • OR try removing QUERY and QUERYD from the start of the hdaudio.config file
  • Reboot
  • open a shell
  • type: sys:tools/debug/sashimi > ram:debug.txt
  • open ahi prefs
  • select one of the audio modes - HIFI or otherwise
  • press the 'test sound' button
  • press ctrl-c in the shell
  • post the results to Aros-Exec


If you are a developer, maybe take a look at the OSS audio driver sources, alsa for ideas for fixes for our drivers.

To get version of the driver check with he AHI pref or type into shell version HDAudio.audio or the version button in DOpus with driver highlighted.

Envy24 series

A little history. VIA bought the ICE created Envy chipsets VT1712 first. A few years later, they created several cheaper variants VT1724 (mixer missing), VT1721 (low end cut down), VT1720 (embedded on motherboard) and lastly the VT1723 (no support apart from Windows Envy24DT like SYBA SD-PEX63034).

There are PCI Express versions appearing.

The Envy24 is the base product that was originally designed by ICEnsemble, and it supports multi-channel hardware mixing, which is great for professional use. The HT version removes the hardware mixer (unimportant for non-professional uses). The HT-S version is almost exactly the same as the HT, it just uses cheaper DACs. The PT version is exactly the same as the HT-S version, it is just the edition used for on-board audio on motherboards.

N.B. PCI slot identification and 3.3v PCI.

  • Ensure the latest version is being used.
  • Set GMA_MEM to 128 or 256 to test
  • Try the FORCEGMA ToolType for 2D, and try the FORCEGALLIUM ToolType for 3D acceleration after 2D is verified to work. ToolTypes should be applied to the Devs/Monitors/IntelGMA monitor icon.

If still having problems:

  • At GRUB boot screen edit boot line and add option: debug=memory

For newer Intel chipsets cannot be updated until gallium is updated. For 3D, correct - but that will never happen and has been discussed on the mesa mailing list. Intel arent interested in working on the gallium code, and the people who developed the gallium driver have no interest in making it work with newer chipsets since they can use the Intel DRI driver. Writing/backporting the 3D engine for the driver is no small task, and not for the feint hearted - its certainly outwith the scope of any AROS dev unless going to give it the amount of time and dedication required.

Until AROS supports vulkan, you are unlikely to be able to use newer intel based 3d solutions.

For Skylake users, the Intel graphics cards now require non-free firmware for full functionality of power energy consumption regulation.

Higher gpu clocks, rather than pixel shaders are more important to AROS, so steer clear of lower end cards for any generation (any card whose second digit is lower than 6) except the best compatible low end 8400gs, gt210, gt220 and 9500gt for early Intel(TM) skt 775 mobos.

AROS boot up corruption will eventually finish and should work fine after

Nouveau development and actual benchmark speed tests are a lot slower than the rival radeon support in 2D and 3D

  • 2010 Covers TNT through 8
  • 2011 GTX 200 400 added
  • 2012 reclocking added for 200/300 cards and some fan control but new "NV30" driver for the GeForce FX/6/7 series GPUs buggy to date
  • 2013 very limited Nvidia direct support is provided and 8/9 NV50 reclocking improvements
  • 2014 re-clocking fermi 400/500 additions provides better power management and 2D / 3D performance
  • 2016 kepler 600/700 reclocking
  • 2017 NVIDIA released signed firmware images for hardware acceleration on Maxwell / Pascal but none for signed power management yet


Nouveau support for AROS is limited to OpenGL 2.1 compliance even for modern GL4 capable GPUs though OpenGL 3.0 support arrived later in Linux (2013) and OpenGL4 (2015)
Francisco Jerez OpenCL supports the older NV50 cards, not the newer NVC0 cards


As a general rule of thumb any Nvidia GFX card drops one 3D rank with each new generation, slightly more on node shrinks.

radeon.hidd

Michel Shultz 2D driver (standard on most distributions) and updated driver can be tested and discussed here


Gallium Radeon HD not ported yet

r300g - 9600 to X1900 - llvm not needed - r300 software driver deprecated

r600g Evergreen - HD 2xxx to 6xxx - llvm not necessarily needed and can use swrast - r600 software driver deprecated

SI - HD 7xxx and up - faster llvmpipe required (extra bounty)


2013 was a big year for the r600g gallium3d radeon driver with uvd (hardware h.264 video decoding) support via VDPAU in April and Dynamic Power Management added in July for 4000 to 7000

2014 bug fixing for r600g

2015 radeonSI support improved

Unless your computer uses a Firewire chipset manufactured by Texas Instruments, FireWire interfaces are likely to act buggy. AROS is unlikely to ever support FireWire.


Bluetooth is similarly unlikely to be ever supported due to huge cost to be certified.



No x86 PCMCIA card.resource at the moment. Writing card.resource would be a similar amount of work to writing a typical driver. However, it might be complicated by having to support a variety of PCMCIA-controller chipsets like TI PCI1225, PCI1410, PCI1420, 1450, PCIxx12 and O2, etc. m68k card.resource does not really have many higher level functions, most functions are really simple or poke Gayle registers directly. only exception is CopyTuple(). Amiga card.resource has one significant flaw: it's single-unit. would need card.resource and pccard.library. There was talk in the past of designing a new API for PCMCIA because card.resource only supports one slot, but since most modern laptops only have one slot anyway, I think it might be worthwhile to implement card.resource as-is (at least as a first step). pccard.library would be trivial to port. So, new API is needed.

The more I work with AHCI, the more I realize that it's going to take a pile of test hardware just to figure out all the different bugs in all the motherboard chipsets and add-on PCI cards that 'kinda' implement AHCI. Not to mention Silicon Image, which took a very different approach from Intel's AHCI in their SATA controllers.
