It does not provide direct device driver entry points but makes its functions available via the internal .Xr wsdisplay 4 interface. .Sh DISPLAY RESOLUTION The XVideo and PowerVideo frame buffers will adapt their resolution and refresh rate to the monitor they are connected to. However, when not connected to a Sun monitor, the device will default to the .Xr cgthree 4 Ns -compatible 1152x900 resolution, with a refresh rate of 67Hz. A different resolution can be forced using the rotary switch on the edge of the board. .Pp The available modes are as follows: .Bl -column "Rotary" "Resolution" "Refresh Rate" -offset indent .It Sy Rotary Ta Sy Resolution Ta Sy "Refresh Rate" .It Li 0 Ta autodetect Ta autodetect .It Li 1 Ta 1152x900 Ta 67Hz .It Li 2 Ta 1152x900 Ta 76Hz .It Li 3 Ta 1152x900 Ta 60Hz .It Li 4 Ta 1024x768 Ta 77Hz .It Li 5 Ta 640x480 Ta 60Hz .El .Pp All other rotary positions will behave as position 0, except for positions E and F. Position E enables the board built-in debugger on the serial port, and should not be used by end-users. Position F selects the video mode settings stored in the cards NVRAM. These settings cannot be modified under .Ox . .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr intro 4 , .Xr sbus 4 , .Xr wscons 4 , .Xr wsdisplay 4 .Sh CAVEATS This driver does not support any acceleration features at the moment. .Pp Storing video mode information in the NVRAM is not supported.
