-.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 all device information necessary to initialize
-the card. However, if you have problems with auto\-detection, you can
-specify:
-.PP
-.RS 4
-VideoRam \- in kilobytes
-.br
-MemBase \- physical address of the linear framebuffer
-.br
-IOBase \- physical address of the MMIO registers
-.br
-ChipID \- PCI DEVICE ID
-.RE
-.PP
-In addition, the following driver
-.B Options
-are supported:
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qSWcursor\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Selects software cursor. The default is
-.B off.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qNoAccel\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Enables or disables all hardware acceleration.
-.br
-The default is to
-.B enable
-hardware acceleration.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qDac6Bit\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Enables or disables the use of 6 bits per color component when in 8 bpp
-mode (emulates VGA mode). By default, all 8 bits per color component
-are used.
-.br
-The default is
-.B off.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qVideoKey\*q \*q" integer \*q
-This overrides the default pixel value for the YUV video overlay key.
-.br
-The default value is
-.B 0x1E.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qScalerWidth\*q \*q" integer \*q
-This sets the overlay scaler buffer width. Accepted values range from 1024 to
-2048, divisible by 64, values other than 1536 and 1920 may not make sense
-though. Should be set automatically, but noone has a clue what the limit is
-for which chip. If you think quality is not optimal when playing back HD video
-(with horizontal resolution larger than this setting), increase this value, if
-you get an empty area at the right (usually pink), decrease it. Note this only
-affects the "true" overlay via xv, it won't affect things like textured video.
-.br
-The default value is either 1536 (for most chips) or 1920.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qAGPMode\*q \*q" integer \*q
-Set AGP data transfer rate.
-(used only when DRI is enabled)
-.br
-1 \-\- 1x (before AGP v3 only)
-.br
-2 \-\- 2x (before AGP v3 only)
-.br
-4 \-\- 4x
-.br
-8 \-\- 8x (AGP v3 only)
-.br
-others \-\- invalid
-.br
-The default is to
-.B leave it unchanged.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qAGPFastWrite\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Enable AGP fast writes. Enabling this is frequently the cause of
-instability. Used only when the DRI is enabled. If you enable
-this option you will get *NO* support from developers.
-.br
-The default is
-.B off.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qBusType\*q \*q" string \*q
-Used to replace previous ForcePCIMode option.
-Should only be used when driver's bus detection is incorrect
-or you want to force a AGP card to PCI mode. Should NEVER force
-a PCI card to AGP bus.
-.br
-PCI \-\- PCI bus
-.br
-AGP \-\- AGP bus
-.br
-PCIE \-\- PCI Express (falls back to PCI at present)
-.br
-(used only when DRI is enabled)
-.br
-The default is
-.B auto detect.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qDDCMode\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Force to use the modes queried from the connected monitor.
-.br
-The default is
-.B off.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qDisplayPriority\*q \*q" string \*q
-.br
-Used to prevent flickering or tearing problem caused by display buffer underflow.
-.br
-AUTO \-\- Driver calculated (default).
-.br
-BIOS \-\- Remain unchanged from BIOS setting.
- Use this if the calculation is not correct
- for your card.
-.br
-HIGH \-\- Force to the highest priority.
- Use this if you have problem with above options.
- This may affect performance slightly.
-.br
-The default value is
-.B AUTO.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qColorTiling\*q \*q" "boolean" \*q
-Frame buffer can be addressed either in linear or tiled mode. Tiled mode can provide
-significant performance benefits with 3D applications, for 2D it shouldn't matter
-much. Tiling will be disabled if the virtual x resolution exceeds 2048 (3968 for R300
-and above), if option
-.B UseFBDev
-is used, or (if DRI is enabled) the drm module is too old.
-.br
-If this option is enabled, a new dri driver is required for direct rendering too.
-.br
-Color tiling will be automatically disabled in interlaced or doublescan screen modes.
-.br
-The default value is
-.B on.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qIgnoreEDID\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Do not use EDID data for mode validation, but DDC is still used
-for monitor detection. This is different from NoDDC option.
-.br
-The default value is
-.B off.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qPanelSize\*q \*q" "string" \*q
-Should only be used when driver cannot detect the correct panel size.
-Apply to both desktop (TMDS) and laptop (LVDS) digital panels.
-When a valid panel size is specified, the timings collected from
-DDC and BIOS will not be used. If you have a panel with timings
-different from that of a standard VESA mode, you have to provide
-this information through the Modeline.
-.br
-For example, Option "PanelSize" "1400x1050"
-.br
-The default value is
-.B none.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qEnablePageFlip\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Enable page flipping for 3D acceleration. This will increase performance
-but not work correctly in some rare cases, hence the default is
-.B off.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qForceMinDotClock\*q \*q" frequency \*q
-Override minimum dot clock. Some Radeon BIOSes report a minimum dot
-clock unsuitable (too high) for use with television sets even when they
-actually can produce lower dot clocks. If this is the case you can
-override the value here.
-.B Note that using this option may damage your hardware.
-You have been warned. The
-.B frequency
-parameter may be specified as a float value with standard suffixes like
-"k", "kHz", "M", "MHz".
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qRenderAccel\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Enables or disables hardware Render acceleration. This driver does not
-support component alpha (subpixel) rendering. It is only supported on
-Radeon series up to and including 9200 (9500/9700 and newer
-unsupported). The default is to
-.B enable
-Render acceleration.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qAccelMethod\*q \*q" "string" \*q
-Chooses between available acceleration architectures. Valid options are
-.B XAA
-and
-.B EXA.
-XAA is the traditional acceleration architecture and support for it is very
-stable. EXA is a newer acceleration architecture with better performance for
-the Render and Composite extensions, but the rendering code for it is newer and
-possibly unstable. The default is
-.B XAA.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qAccelDFS\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Use or don't use accelerated EXA DownloadFromScreen hook when possible (only
-when Direct Rendering is enabled, e.g.).
-Default:
-.B off
-with AGP due to issues with GPU->host transfers with some AGP bridges,
-.B on
-otherwise.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qFBTexPercent\*q \*q" integer \*q
-Amount of video RAM to reserve for OpenGL textures, in percent. With EXA, the
-remainder of video RAM is reserved for EXA offscreen management. Specifying 0
-results in all offscreen video RAM being reserved for EXA and only GART memory
-being available for OpenGL textures. This may improve EXA performance, but
-beware that it may cause problems with OpenGL drivers from Mesa versions older
-than 6.4. With XAA, specifying lower percentage than what gets reserved without
-this option has no effect, but the driver tries to increase the video RAM
-reserved for textures to the amount specified roughly.
-Default:
-.B 50.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qDepthBits\*q \*q" integer \*q
-Precision in bits per pixel of the shared depth buffer used for 3D acceleration.
-Valid values are 16 and 24. When this is 24, there will also be a hardware
-accelerated stencil buffer, but the combined depth/stencil buffer will take up
-twice as much video RAM as when it's 16.
-Default:
-.B The same as the screen depth.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qDMAForXv\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Try or don't try to use DMA for Xv image transfers. This will reduce CPU
-usage when playing big videos like DVDs, but may cause instabilities.
-Default:
-.B on.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qSubPixelOrder\*q \*q" "string" \*q
-Force subpixel order to specified order.
-Subpixel order is used for subpixel decimation on flat panels.
-.br
-NONE \-\- No subpixel (CRT like displays)
-.br
-RGB \-\- in horizontal RGB order (most flat panels)
-.br
-BGR \-\- in horizontal BGR order (some flat panels)
-
-.br
-This option is intended to be used in following cases:
-.br
-1. The default subpixel order is incorrect for your panel.
-.br
-2. Enable subpixel decimation on analog panels.
-.br
-3. Adjust to one display type in dual-head clone mode setup.
-.br
-4. Get better performance with Render acceleration on
-digital panels (use NONE setting).
-.br
-The default is
-.B NONE
-for CRT,
-.B RGB
-for digital panels
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qDynamicClocks\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Enable dynamic clock scaling. The on-chip clocks will scale dynamically
-based on usage. This can help reduce heat and increase battery
-life by reducing power usage. Some users report reduced 3D performance
-with this enabled. The default is
-.B off.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qVGAAccess\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Tell the driver if it can do legacy VGA IOs to the card. This is
-necessary for properly resuming consoles when in VGA text mode, but
-shouldn't be if the console is using radeonfb or some other graphic
-mode driver. Some platforms like PowerPC have issues with those, and they aren't
-necessary unless you have a real text mode in console. The default is
-.B off
-on PowerPC and SPARC and
-.B on
-on other architectures.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qReverseDDC\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-When BIOS connector informations aren't available, use this option to
-reverse the mapping of the 2 main DDC ports. Use this if the X serve
-obviously detects the wrong display for each connector. This is
-typically needed on the Radeon 9600 cards bundled with Apple G5s. The
-default is
-.B off.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qLVDSProbePLL\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-When BIOS panel informations aren't available (like on PowerBooks), it
-may still be necessary to use the firmware provided PLL values for the
-panel or flickering will happen. This option will force probing of
-the current value programmed in the chip when X is launched in that
-case. This is only useful for LVDS panels (laptop internal panels).
-The default is
-.B on.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qTVDACLoadDetect\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Enable load detection on the TV DAC. The TV DAC is used to drive both
-TV-OUT and analog monitors. Load detection is often unreliable in the
-TV DAC so it is disabled by default.
-The default is
-.B off.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qDefaultTMDSPLL\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Use the default driver provided TMDS PLL values rather than the ones
-provided by the bios. This option has no effect on Mac cards. Enable
-this option if you are having problems with a DVI monitor using the
-internal TMDS controller.
-The default is
-.B off.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qDRI\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Enable DRI support. This option allows you to enable to disable the DRI.
-The default is
-.B off
-for RN50/ES1000 and
-.B on
-for others.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qDefaultConnectorTable\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Enable this option to skip the BIOS connector table parsing and use the
-driver defaults for each chip.
-The default is
-.B off
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qMacModel\*q \*q" string \*q
-.br
-Used to specify Mac models for connector tables and quirks. If you have
-a powerbook or mini with DVI that does not work properly, try the alternate
- options as Apple does not seem to provide a good way of knowing whether
- they use internal or external TMDS for DVI. Only valid on PowerPC.
-.br
-ibook \-\- ibooks
-.br
-powerbook-external \-\- Powerbooks with external DVI
-.br
-powerbook-internal \-\- Powerbooks with integrated DVI
-.br
-powerbook-vga \-\- Powerbooks with VGA rather than DVI
-.br
-powerbook-duallink \-\- powerbook-external alias
-.br
-powerbook \-\- powerbook-internal alias
-.br
-mini-external \-\- Mac Mini with external DVI
-.br
-mini-internal \-\- Mac Mini with integrated DVI
-.br
-mini \-\- mini-external alias
-.br
-imac-g5-isight \-\- iMac G5 iSight
-.br
-The default value is
-.B undefined.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qTVStandard\*q \*q" string \*q
-.br
-Used to specify the default TV standard if you want to use something other than
-the bios default. Valid options are:
-.br
-ntsc
-.br
-pal
-.br
-pal-m
-.br
-pal-60
-.br
-ntsc-j
-.br
-scart-pal
-.br
-The default value is
-.B undefined.
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qForceTVOut\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Enable this option to force TV Out to always be detected as attached.
-The default is
-.B off
-.TP
-.BI "Option \*qIgnoreLidStatus\*q \*q" boolean \*q
-Enable this option to ignore lid status on laptops and always detect
-LVDS as attached.
-The default is
-.B on.
