You have a whopping 1 megabyte of video RAM there. Will it work with the VESA fb driver? If not, then you might as well give up. I have the source code for their old Windows 3.1 driver, and it is more than 76,000 lines of 16-bit x86 assembler. The blitter provided virtually no acceleration, so you won't really be giving anything up to use the fb driver. -- Tim Roberts, timr@xxxxxxxxx Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@xxxxxxxxxxx http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
