.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
.B apm
|
|
|
|
|
is an __xservername__ driver for Alliance ProMotion video cards. The driver
|
|
|
|
|
is accelerated for supported hardware/depth combination. It supports
|
|
|
|
|
framebuffer depths of 8, 15, 16, 24 and 32 bits. For 6420, 6422, AT24,
|
|
|
|
|
AT3D and AT25, all depths are fully accelerated except 24 bpp for which
|
|
|
|
|
only screen to screen copy and rectangle filling is accelerated.

|
|
|

|
|
|
.B apm
|
|
|
|
|
driver supports PCI and ISA video cards on the following Alliance

.SH CONFIGURATION DETAILS
|
|
|
|
|
Please refer to __xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) for general configuration
|
|
|
|
|
details. This section only covers configuration details specific to this
|
|
|
|
|
driver.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The driver auto-detects the chipset type, but the following
|
|
|
|
|
.B ChipSet
|
|
|
|
|
names may optionally be specified in the config file
|
|
|
|
|
.B \*qDevice\*q
|
|
|
|
|
section, and will override the auto-detection:
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
.RS 4
|
|
|
|
|
"6422", "at24", "at3d".
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The AT25 is Chipset "at3d" and the 6420 is 6422.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The driver will auto-detect the amount of video memory present for all
|
|
|
|
|
chips. The actual amount of video memory can also be specified with a
|
|
|
|
|
.B VideoRam
|
|
|
|
|
entry in the config file
|
|
|
|
|
.B \*qDevice\*q
|
|
|
|
|
section.
