============================================ Framebuffer driver for Cirrus Logic chipsets ============================================ Copyright 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com> .. just a little something to get people going; contributors welcome! Chip families supported: - SD64 - Piccolo - Picasso - Spectrum - Alpine (GD-543x/4x) - Picasso4 (GD-5446) - GD-5480 - Laguna (GD-546x) Bus's supported: - PCI - Zorro Architectures supported: - i386 - Alpha - PPC (Motorola Powerstack) - m68k (Amiga) Default video modes ------------------- At the moment, there are two kernel command line arguments supported: - mode:640x480 - mode:800x600 - mode:1024x768 Full support for startup video modes (modedb) will be integrated soon. Version 1.9.9.1 --------------- * Fix memory detection for 512kB case * 800x600 mode * Fixed timings * Hint for AXP: Use -accel false -vyres -1 when changing resolution Version 1.9.4.4 --------------- * Preliminary Laguna support * Overhaul color register routines. * Associated with the above, console colors are now obtained from a LUT called 'palette' instead of from the VGA registers. This code was modelled after that in atyfb and matroxfb. * Code cleanup, add comments. * Overhaul SR07 handling. * Bug fixes. Version 1.9.4.3 --------------- * Correctly set default startup video mode. * Do not override ram size setting. Define CLGEN_USE_HARDCODED_RAM_SETTINGS if you _do_ want to override the RAM setting. * Compile fixes related to new 2.3.x IORESOURCE_IO[PORT] symbol changes. * Use new 2.3.x resource allocation. * Some code cleanup. Version 1.9.4.2 --------------- * Casting fixes. * Assertions no longer cause an oops on purpose. * Bug fixes. Version 1.9.4.1 --------------- * Add compatibility support. Now requires a 2.1.x, 2.2.x or 2.3.x kernel. Version 1.9.4 ------------- * Several enhancements, smaller memory footprint, a few bugfixes. * Requires kernel 2.3.14-pre1 or later. Version 1.9.3 ------------- * Bundled with kernel 2.3.14-pre1 or later.
