They also have a 3d driver, but I think it's binary only.

Re: need help writing driver for SiS m650
I think you're right (and it's a pleasure to meet you, by the way), but the SiS licenses are, as far as I've read them, now "protected" under two entities instead of just one, so it may be another nVidia case; a company that *wants* to open up but can't. Would you like to contact him, or should I? (I'm hoping that KMail's reply format is compatible with mailman. If it's not, then I'm sorry for the mess.

[Bug 3259] MGA: Add support for PCI cards

The following table summarizes the results. To test, I started the X-server, ran a GL app (glxgears), quit the server, restarted the server, re-ran the GL app. I have not been able to test this on an actual PCI card yet. The only PCI MGA card that I have is for PowerPC. There seem to be some byte-ordering issues in the MGA DRM. At this point, I think fixing those issues is beyond the scope of this patch. DRM DDX client-side DRI | result +--- old old old | works old old new | works old new old | works old new new | works new old old | works new old new | works new new old | works* new new new | works * This configuration only works if 'Option "OldDmaInit" "true"' appears in the Device section of the xorg.conf. Otherwise any GL app will segfault in the client-side driver. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.

When this caused a collision with the existing ioctl handler function, the ioctl handler function was changed to drm_*_ioctl. This patch also replaces the drm_agp_do_release function with drm_agp_release. drm_agp_release (drm_core_agp_release in the previous patch) is very similar to drm_agp_do_release, and I saw no reason to have both. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.

As I understand it SiS no longer own the graphics parts anyway but they were merged with trident and dumped off somewhere. It is possible to get somewhere with .tw vendors, but it does take time, persistence and patience to find the right people. At least we've been successful to a reasonable extent with vendors like VIA and ALi. You might want to contact Richard Stallman as he was talking with several .tw vendors recently and may have contacts he can share or insight into the situation with SiS.

I still say it would not endear you to SiS. It is way too easy for them to be spiteful than help. > PS Is ODW fanless ? Just curious.. Ooh you noticed us :D No it's not. The CPU has a fan and so does the PSU. The CPU fan is drowned by the noise of the PSU fan. There is an 80mm case fan for those that live on Mustafar but it is not connected by default. We are working on a completely passive system and getting the PSU is the hard part. -- Matt Sealey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Manager, Genesi, Developer Relations --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.

Re: Fwd: radeon YCbCr output
Okay. Thanks, I'll take a look. Unfortuneately I've only got net access on my mobile phone at the moment. It won't be until next week that I can realistically have a go, but I'll post any progress. If I can't get it to work, I'll install Windows and try to get a register dump with it working.
