Re: i810 driver 1400x1050 problem -- bios replacement
Hi, S Streif schrieb: Which information related to the structure of the video bios do you have so far? All that I know about the configuration data is documented in the comments included in the *.bsf files provided with the V-BIOS. The configuration is stored in blocks, every block starts with its number (1 byte) and its size (2 bytes). Do you know someone working at this problem? Sorry, I don't. Does someone else on this list? I just found similar programs/tools which you can download from: Unfortunately they are specific to CT 65545 chipset.

Hello I just found similar programs/tools which you can download from: Unfortunately they are specific to CT 65545 chipset. This looks much BETTER: Manual: ftp://download.intel.com/design/intarch/MANUALS/27404102.pdf The tool we are looking for (I havn't tried it yet): ftp://download.intel.com/design/intarch/SWSUP/IEGDVBIOS.zip And a driver for Linux (very new, update date: March 30, 2004; maybe not officially released yet): ftp://download.intel.com/design/intarch/SWSUP/IEGDLinux.tgz I hope these links are more useful this time!!

Tracking down mga crashes
I have found two repeatable crashes on my system running 4.3.0 and a stock mga driver. One is a crash when the server is unable to load the mga_hal module for a dualhead setup that requires it; apparently it does not gracefully fall out and the entire system locks up. Another is when my server has been up for a few days, any mode change or VT switch will suddenly cause a complete system hang. I think this is again due to a crash. The problem is that when using a static debug server, neither of these problems is happening. Is it a usually effective approach to build a loadable debug server? Are there any special tricks needed to debug module problems under such a setup? I am also curious if there are any hooks that the server uses to restore the video hardware into a sane state when it receives a fatal signal. If it exists, apparently this is not working correctly on mga; these server crashes should not be resulting in system hangs. -- Ryan Underwood, [EMAIL PROTECTED] signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Hello And a driver for Linux (very new, update date: March 30, 2004; maybe not officially released yet): ftp://download.intel.com/design/intarch/SWSUP/IEGDLinux.tgz EVERYBODY: This is really big news! A binary XFree86 driver for 8x5 embedded graphics mady by Intel which apparently supports 1400x1050 as well as dual head. Sadly, I couldn't get it running. It always crashes with signal 11. Maybe someone else with the appropriate hardware could try. I tried it on my Acer TM661LCI, without success. XWindow starts without any error message and I can see the trash bin icon. However, the trash icon is very big and the screen is flickering and is fuzzy. I tried with different resolutions -- no difference. It might be necessary to modify the video bios with the vbios tool. Because it is written in the driver's info file ( ftp://download.intel.com/design/intarch/SWSUP/IEGDLinux.htm ): Please be sure to download the Video BIOS as well. Any ideas?

Re: i830 screen black after resume on 4.4
I've checked the CVS, and found that the i810 driver up to 4_3_99_9 works after resume, but anything after 4_3_99_9 has the same problem of displaying black screen after apm resume. Is there anyone else having this problem? I'm running on IBM X30 ThinkPad. Thanks, Jeff On Sat, 10 Apr 2004, Jeff Chua wrote: still doesn't work. But why _old_ version works better than new one? Usually newer version should works better, but in this case, it looks like going one step back ...

You might try changing the VT prior to suspending if you are not already. Alex Thanks, Jeff [ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ] __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
