It contains -full support for 8, 15, 16 and 24 bit pixel depths, hardware -acceleration of drawing primitives, hardware cursor, video modes up to -1800x1440 @ 70Hz, doublescan modes (e.g., 320x200 and 320x240), gamma -correction at all pixel depths, a fully programming dot clock and robust -text mode restoration for VT switching. Dualhead is supported on M3/M4 -mobile chips. -.SH SUPPORTED HARDWARE -The -.B r128 -driver supports all ATI Rage 128 based video cards including the Rage -Fury AGP 32MB, the XPERT 128 AGP 16MB and the XPERT 99 AGP 8MB. -.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. 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. 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. -The default value is -.B undefined. -.TP -.BI "Option \*qDisplay\*q \*q" string \*q -Select display mode for devices which support flat panels. Supported modes are: - -.B \*qFP\*q -- use flat panel; - -.B \*qCRT\*q -- use cathode ray tube; - -.B \*qMirror\*q -- use both FP and CRT; - -.B \*qBIOS\*q -- use mode as configured in the BIOS. - -The default is -.B FP. - -.PP -The following -.B Options -are mostly important for non-x86 architectures: -.TP -.BI "Option \*qProgramFPRegs\*q \*q" boolean \*q -Enable or disable programming of the flat panel registers. -Beware that this may damage your panel, so use this -.B at your own risk. -The default depends on the device. -.TP -.BI "Option \*qPanelWidth\*q \*q" integer \*q -.TP -.BI "Option \*qPanelHeight\*q \*q" integer \*q -Override the flat panel dimensions in pixels. They are used to program the flat panel -registers and normally determined using the video card BIOS. If the wrong dimensions -are used, the system may hang. -.TP -.BI "Option \*qUseFBDev\*q \*q" boolean \*q -Enable or disable use of an OS-specific framebuffer device interface -(which is not supported on all OSs). See fbdevhw(__drivermansuffix__) -for further information. -Default: -.BI on -for PowerPC, -.BI off -for other architectures. -.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: off. - -.PP -The following additional -.B Options -are supported: -.TP -.BI "Option \*qShowCache\*q \*q" boolean \*q -Enable or disable viewing offscreen cache memory. A -development debug option. Default: 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. - -.PP -.B Dualhead Note: -The video BIOS on some laptops interacts strangely with dualhead. -This can result in flickering and problems changing modes on crtc2. -If you experience these problems try toggling your laptop's video -output switch (e.g., fn-f7, etc.) prior to starting X or switch to -another VT and back. - -.SH "SEE ALSO" -__xservername__(__appmansuffix__), __xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__), xorgconfig(__appmansuffix__), Xserver(__appmansuffix__), X(__miscmansuffix__) -.SH AUTHORS -.nf -Rickard E.
