This driver
|
||
|
|
supports a single chipset `mediagx' that should work on the following Cyrix
|
||
|
|
CPUs with integrated graphics:

disable the hardware cursor. (Code not verified yet!)

<tag>Option "no_accel"</tag>
|

|

completely disables acceleration. Usually not recommended.

|
<item>As a first cut at the new design, known problems are everywhere.
|
||
|
|
The console font is corrupted upon exit. The server seems stable if
|
||
|
|
the virtual desktop and resolution size match. I found 1024x768 usable
|
||
|
|
and that's why I released this version. Geeks can have fun with this
|
||
|
|
but NEWBIES should use the 3.3.3.1 release instead!
|
||
|
|
<item>On some older chipsets, the driver may trigger an illegal instruction
|
||
|
|
just after probing for the ``scratchpad size''. If this is the case,
|
||
|
|
email to <email>hecker@cat.dfrc.nasa.gov</email> with the output of
|
||
|
|
<verb>
|
||
|
|
Xorg -probeonly -verbose
|
||
|
|
</verb>
|
||
|
|
and this will be fixed.
