Information for Cyrix Chipset Users <author>The XFree86 Project Inc. <date>7 March 2000 <ident> </ident> <toc> <sect>Supported hardware This driver supports a single chipset `mediagx' that should work on the following Cyrix CPUs with integrated graphics: <itemize> <item>MediaGX <item>MediaGXi <item>MediaGXm </itemize> <sect>Features <itemize> <item>Rather sparse (color depth hardcoded to 8) </itemize> <sect>xorg.conf Option <descrip> <tag>Option "sw_cursor"</tag> disable the hardware cursor. (Code not verified yet!) <tag>Option "no_accel"</tag> completely disables acceleration. Usually not recommended. </descrip> <sect>Bugs and Limitations <itemize> <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. </itemize> <sect>Authors <itemize> <item>Richard Hecker <email>hecker@cat.dfrc.nasa.gov</email> </itemize> </article>
