NAME

       apm - Alliance ProMotion video driver

SYNOPSIS

       Section "Device"
	 Identifier "devname"
	 Driver "apm"
	 ...
       EndSection

DESCRIPTION

       apm  is	an  XFree86 driver for Alliance ProMotion video cards. The driver is accelerated for supported hardware/depth combination. It sup-
       ports framebuffer depths of 8, 15, 16, 24 and 32 bits. For 6420, 6422, AT24, AT3D and AT25, all depths are fully accelerated except 24  bpp
       for which only screen to screen copy and rectangle filling is accelerated.

SUPPORTED HARDWARE

       The apm driver supports PCI and ISA video cards on the following Alliance ProMotion chipsets

       ProMotion 6420

       ProMotion 6422

       AT24

       AT3D

       AT25

CONFIGURATION DETAILS

       Please refer to XF86Config(5) for general configuration details.  This section only covers configuration details specific to this driver.

       The  driver auto-detects the chipset type, but the following ChipSet names may optionally be specified in the config file "Device" section,
       and will override the auto-detection:

	   "6422", "at24", "at3d".

       The AT25 is Chipset "at3d" and the 6420 is 6422.

       The driver will auto-detect the amount of video memory present for all chips. The actual amount of video memory can also be specified  with
       a VideoRam entry in the config file "Device" section.

       The following driver Options are supported:

       Option "HWCursor" "boolean"
	      Enable or disable the hardware cursor.  Default: on.

       Option "SWCursor" "boolean"
	      Force the software cursor.  Default: off.

       Option "NoAccel" "boolean"
	      Disable or enable acceleration.  Default: acceleration is enabled.

       Option "NoLinear" "boolean"
	      Disable or enable use of linear frame buffer. Default: on.  Note: it may or may not work. Tell me if you need it.

       Option "PciRetry" "boolean"
	      Enable or disable PCI retries.  Default: off.

       Option "Remap_DPMS_On" "string"

       Option "Remap_DPMS_Standby" "string"

       Option "Remap_DPMS_Suspend" "string"

       Option "Remap_DPMS_Off" "string"
	      Remaps the corresponding DPMS events. I've found that my Hercules 128/3D swaps Off and Suspend events. You can correct that with
		     Option "Remap_DPMS_Suspend" "Off"
		     Option "Remap_DPMS_Off" "Suspend"
	      in the Device section of the config file.

       Option "ShadowFB" "boolean"
	      Enable or disable use of the shadow framebuffer layer.  Default: off.

NAME

       glint - GLINT/Permedia video driver

SYNOPSIS

       Section "Device"
	 Identifier "devname"
	 Driver "glint"
	 ...
       EndSection

DESCRIPTION

       glint  is  an Xorg driver for 3Dlabs & Texas Instruments GLINT/Permedia based video cards. The driver is rather fully accelerated, and pro-
       vides support for the following framebuffer depths: 8, 15 (may give bad results with FBDev support), 16, 24 (32 bpp recommended, 24 bpp has
       problems), 30, and an 8+24 overlay mode.

SUPPORTED HARDWARE

       The  glint driver supports 3Dlabs (GLINT MX, GLINT 500TX, GLINT 300SX, GLINT GAMMA, GLINT DELTA, GLINT GAMMA2, Permedia, Permedia 2, Perme-
       dia 2v, Permedia 3, R3, R4) and Texas Instruments (Permedia, Permedia 2) chips.

CONFIGURATION DETAILS

       Please refer to xorg.conf(5) for general configuration details.	This section only covers configuration details specific to this driver.

       The driver auto-detects the chipset type, but the following ChipSet names may optionally be specified in the config file "Device"  section,
       and will override the auto-detection:

	   "ti_pm2", "ti_pm", "r4", "pm3", "pm2v", "pm2", "pm", "300sx", "500tx", "mx", "gamma", "gamma2", "delta"

       The  driver will try to auto-detect the amount of video memory present for all chips.  If it's not detected correctly, the actual amount of
       video memory should be specified with a VideoRam entry in the config file "Device" section.

       Additionally, you may need to specify the bus ID of your card with a BusID entry in the config file "Device" section, especially with FBDev
       support.

       The following driver Options are supported:

       Option "UseFlatPanel" "boolean"
	      Enable the FlatPanel feature on the Permedia3.  Default: off.

       Option "SWCursor" "boolean"
	      Enable or disable the SW cursor.	Default: off.  This option disables the HWCursor option and vice versa.

       Option "NoAccel" "boolean"
	      Disable or enable acceleration.  Default: acceleration is enabled.

       Option "Overlay"
	      Enable  8+24  overlay  mode.  Only appropriate for depth 24, 32 bpp.  (Note: This hasn't been tested with FBDev support and probably
	      won't work.)  Recognized values are: "8,24", "24,8". Default: off.

       Option "PciRetry" "boolean"
	      Enable or disable PCI retries.  (Note: This doesn't work with Permedia2 based cards for Amigas.)	Default: off.

       Option "ShadowFB" "boolean"
	      Enable or disable use of the shadow framebuffer layer.  (Note: This disables hardware acceleration.)  Default: off.

       Option "UseFBDev" "boolean"
	      Enable or disable use of an OS-specific fb interface (which is not supported on all OSs).  See fbdevhw(4) for  further  information.
	      Default: off.

       Option "BlockWrite" "boolean"
	      Enable  or  disable  block  writes for the various Permedia 2 chips. This improves acceleration in general, but disables it for some
	      special cases.  Default: off.

       Option "FireGL3000" "boolean"
	      If you have a card of the same name, turn this on.  Default: off.
