Well i guess we can't expect too much for this driver quality anyway. At least it can render fast and well also can display a correct native resolution it's enough i guess.. also with capability for basic compositing. It has been confirmed that sisimedia_drv.so is work with Fedora 14, so i assume that this driver will with kernel 2.6.35 above.

@mantas so you just only make a .deb package from Antonie driver then. Well actually i try the sisimedia_drv.so and then here's some result that can be reviewed for future patch / release / discussion. Pros : - sisimedia_drv.so in have a high compatibility and can't see when need to repatch it. I already try it to install it with Archlinux based With latest kernel 2.37 RC 2 and the driver is running well. So it's ready for kernel 2.x.37 - xorg.conf is need only an extra usetimming option for 1366x768 resolution and it's run on virtual 1368x768 detected by xrandr. - Distribution tested Compatible = Debian based, Archlinux based, Chakra Linux KDE Standalone, formerly known as KdeMod in Arch community - Distribution tested Incompatible = Redhat based devirative, OpenSuse Cons : maybe must see a technical review but i still can't see a cons here since it's have more compatibility with other distribution I will put xorg.conf example for Antonion mod driver sisimedia driver. sisimedia_drv.so Link --- http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14096167/sisimedia_drv.so.tar.gz ( Sorry i don't have a tarball, but it's take from mandriva for sure ) well so stupid it redirect me from adding the attachment. So i will use pastebin xorg.conf ( Antonion / Tpurch Mod ) http://pastebin.com/yHXvfUVW xorg.conf ( sisimedia_drv.so ) - http://pastebin.com/yV5k0XmY I hope it's can help -- [needs-packaging] no working driver for sis 671/771 video cards https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/301958 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-sis in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

@Pander Well since SIS is lack of capability so don't force yourself to make it work perfectly for 2monitor. For me also always see a glitch not even once when using the modification driver. Use 1 Monitor is quite good already and try to maximize the use of workspace so you can save your time and thinking with us about how to make it work for repetitive release of ubuntu family. Since it was lack of 3D Support. For the configuration file, if you still insist to make it work for 2 Monitor try to see Winischhofer page. He explained quite clear regarding all techy stuff and also configuration things :) -- [needs-packaging] no working driver for sis 671/771 video cards https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/301958 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-sis in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
