framebuffer driver for ATI Radeon chipset video boards
|
|
======================================================
|
|
|
|
These files are replacement for linux-2.4.x-ac.y drivers.
|
|
To use this driver you should have at least linux-2.4.5-ac.1
|
|
then simply replace linux/drivers/video/radeon* with files
|
|
from this directory.
|
|
Note: since linux-2.4.10 this driver was moved from -ac to
|
|
Linus distribution.
|
|
|
|
Alternative way:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
Simply type 'make' command in this directory then copy results ( *.o files ) to:
|
|
/lib/modules/$(LINUX_VER)/kernel/drivers/video
|
|
directory.
|
|
Don't forget about:
|
|
depmod -a
|
|
|
|
Anyway you should have 'Frame buffer support' compiled into linux-kernel
|
|
and at least '8bpp packed pixel support' compiled and installed as module.
|
|
(But if you plan to use this module with mplayer you also should have
|
|
16bpp, 24bpp and 32bpp pixel support compiled as modules).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Radeon video overlay
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
Was designed for mplayer and currently can be used only by mplayer.
|
|
It's RGB-YUV BES for radeon cards (althrough there is experimental
|
|
support for rage128 / rage128pro chips).
|
|
|
|
Installation:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
After building modules just copy them to:
|
|
/lib/modules/$(LINUX_VER)/kernel/drivers/video
|
|
directory.
|
|
Don't forget about:
|
|
depmod -a
|
|
|
|
If you are doing it first time then create the device then execute
|
|
following command:
|
|
mknod /dev/radeon_vid c 178 0
|
|
for radeon_vid.o
|
|
mknod /dev/rage128_vid c 178 0
|
|
for rage128_vid.o
|
|
|
|
Using with mplayer:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Currently there is only way to use ATI's drivers:
|
|
mplayer -vo vesa:lvo:/dev/radeon_vid -<your options> filename
|
|
or
|
|
mplayer -vo vesa:lvo:/dev/rage128_vid -<your options> filename
|
|
|
|
Note:
|
|
~~~~~
|
|
You can pass only options with can be recognized by vo_vesa driver.
|
|
(Indeed radeon_vid and rage128_vid are stupid things and can create
|
|
video overlay only. But mode switching and other adjustement performs
|
|
vo_vesa driver. This mean that they use VESA BIOS as graphics server).
|
|
|
|
Conslusion:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
This stuff (radeon(rage128)_vid) currently doesn't support any standards.
|
|
So after implementing linux standards I'll fully rewrite this driver.
|
|
|
|
