- 5. Configuration
-
- The driver auto-detects all device info included memory size, so use the fol-
- lowing device section in your XF86Config file:
-
- Section "Device"
- Identifier "NeoMagic"
- EndSection
-
-
- or let xf86config or XF86Setup do this for you.
-
- But if you have problems with auto-detection, you can specify:
-
- VideoRam - in kilobytes
- DacSpeed - in MHz
- MemBase - physical address of the linear framebuffer
- MMIOBase - physical address of the memory mapped IO registers
-
-
- 6. Driver Options
-
- o "linear" - linear framebuffer mode (default)
-
- o "no_linear" - banked framebuffer mode
-
- o "no_accel" - software rendering only
-
- o "hw_cursor" - hardware cursor requested (default)
-
- o "sw_cursor" - software cursor only
-
- o "mmio" - use I/O space via memory map (default)
-
- o "no_mmio" - use I/O space directly
-
- o "intern_disp" - enable internal display (default)
-
- o "extern_disp" - enable external display
-
- o "no_stretch" - disable stretching of lower resolution modes on panel
