-
- 1. Supported hardware
-
- The current accelerated I128 server supports
-
- o Imagine 128 (I128 with Texas Instruments TVP3025 or IBM528 RAMDAC). It
- has been tested with with 4MB of VRAM.
-
- o Imagine 128 Ticket 2 Ride (I128-T2R with IBM526 or 528 RAMDAC). It has
- been tested with 4 MB and 8 MB of VRAM and DRAM.
-
- o Imagine 128 Revolution 3D (I128-R3D with IBM526 RAMDAC). It has been
- tested with 4 MB, 8 MB, and 16 MB of WRAM or SGRAM.
-
- o Imagine 128 Revolution IV (I128-R4 with SILVERHAMMER RAMDAC). It has
- been tested with 32 MB.
-
- 2. Features:
-
- o uses linear frame buffer
-
- o Resolutions up to the maximum supported by the card should be possible.
-
- o 8 bpp, 16 bpp (depth 15 and 16), and 32 bpp (depth 24, sparse) are sup-
- ported.
-
- o supports RGB Sync-on-Green
-
- o Makes use of the graphics accelerator.
-
- 3. Configuration:
-
- The I128 driver should auto-detect all supported hardware so you needn't have
- anything other than the Identifier in the Section "Device" of the XF86Config
- file. When running the XF86Setup or xf86config programs one merely needs to
- select an I128 card so that the correct server will be used. One need not
- and should not specify a RAMDAC, clockchip or allow the setup program to
- probe for clocks. The driver will auto-detect the amount of video ram pre-
- sent.
-
- The following Section "Device" options are supported by the I128 driver:
-
- o Option "Dac6Bit"
-
- Will enable 6-bit DAC support.
-
- o Option "NoAccel"
-
- Will disable all hardware acceleration.
-
- o Option "SyncOnGreen"
-
- Will enable syncing on green for sync-on-green monitors (these are typi-
- cally fixed frequency workstation monitors).
-
- 4. Mode lines for the Silicon Graphics flat panel display:
-
- o These mode lines are required for use with the T2R4 (Rev 4) and the Sil-
- icon Graphics Flat Panel display.
-
- o Modeline "1600x1024d32" 103.125 1600 1600 1656 1664 1024 1024 1029 1030
