AMD Geode GX and LX Xorg graphics Driver May 9, 2007 ======================================== = Introduction = This is the X graphics driver for the AMD Geode GX and LX processors. The GX driver features XAA and EXA support for graphics acceleration, and the LX driver supports EXA (including compositing). Both drivers suppport dynamic rotation with XRandR, and Xv overlay support. = Configuration options = You can specify the AMD driver in the normal fashion: Section "Device" Identifier "AMD Geode" Driver "amd" Option "blah" "blah" ... EndSection The following options may be added to the section: == GX == SWCursor: Enable software cursors (essentially disabling HW cursor support) NoCompression: Disable video bandwidth compression NoAccel: Disable hardware assisted acceleration AccelMethod: "EXA" (default) or "XAA" Rotate: Select a orientation to start with - LEFT, INVERT, CCW NoPanel: Disable panel support OSMImageBuffers: Set the number of image buffers (XAA only) OSMColorExpBuffers: Set the number of color expansion buffers (XAA only) FBSize: Specify the size of the video space (in bytes) PanelGeometry: Specify the geometry of the attached panel ("x") == LX == SWCursor: Enable software cursors (essentially disabling HW cursor support) NoCompression: Disable video bandwidth compression NoAccel: Disable hardware assisted acceleration Rotate: Select a orientation to start with - LEFT, INVERT, CCW NoPanel: Disable panel support ExaScratch: Specify the amount of extra EXA scratch buffer (in bytes) FBSize: Specify the size of the video space (in bytes) PanelGeometry: Specify the geometry of the attached panel ("x")
