Configuration[0m + + The driver auto-detects all device information necessary to initialize + the card. The only lines you need in the "Device" section of your + xorg.conf file are: + + Section "Device" + Identifier "Intel i740" + Driver "i740" + EndSection + + + or let xorgconfig do this for you. + + However, if you have problems with auto-detection, you can specify: + + +o VideoRam - in kilobytes + + +o DacSpeed - in MHz + + +o MemBase - physical address of the linear framebuffer + + +o IOBase - physical address of the memory mapped IO registers + + + + [1m6. Driver Options[0m + + + +o "NoAccel" - Turn off hardware acceleration + + +o "SWCursor" - Request a software cursor (hardware is default) + + +o "SDRAM" - Force the use of SDRAM timings + + +o "SGRAM" - Force the use of SGRAM timings + + +o "SlowRam" - Force the use of slower ram timings + + +o "Dac6Bit" - Force the use of a 6 Bit Dac (8 Bit is the default) + + +o "UsePIO - Force the use of programmed IO (Memory mapped is the + default) + + Note: the i740 X server should automatically detect whether your card + has SGRAM or SDRAM. Use the "sgram" and "sdram" options if it is + incorrectly detected. + + + + [1m7. Known Limitations[0m + + + +o Certain drawing operations are very slow when using 24 bit pixel + depth mode. + + + + [1m8.
