Hi Simon, Sounds familiar, I have a 9500 Newer G3 300 384Mb RAM, Sonnet IDE CARD etc running 10.1.5 and originally using an ixMicro Ultimate Rez (Twin Turbo Card).
As you say performance was appalling. The solution to the problem is I'm afraid to ditch the TwinTurbo card and replace it with a card that is fully supported by OS X. I found an ATI Rage 128 Pro 16Mb from a B&W G3 on ebay. This card works well and has full hardware acceleration under OS X 10.1.x. Expect to pay in the region of �45 for one of these card, they are hard to find though. If you are interested I have just upgraded my B&W with a Radeon 7000 and have the old ATI Rage 128 for sale. Regards Simon Dear list, I'm sure this has been covered but... I have an old 7500 running 10.1.5 without a hitch except for the incredibly slow graphics provided by an old 8bm "twin turbo" card. The screen redraw is painfully slow. Is there any way I can improve this, short of buying a better card? A new card is just not worth it I would have thought... *Is it* the fault of the card? The box has a formac 400mhz G3 card in it and about 650mb RAM. Hope someone has some good ideas.
