Hi,
Finally, after couple of sleepless nights I can see the CVisionPPC
console on my screen (NetBSD-Amiga, of course). It lack of many
features, but at least I don't have to switch the monitor plug! :)
The following problems shows up when the driver is configured:
- I have to add 8MB + 0x10000 bytes to kernel memory map
- If the graphics card is configured, CyberStromPPC (MK III) SCSI is NOT,
that is because they share the same vendor/product ID. I don't know
how to handle this. :( .... yet!
- The driver configured memory to the USA ones, so it might not work with
Fujitsu models. Yet, I don't know how to detect this either.
- Finally, I don't know how to detect the graphics card itself.
Please use the driver once you make sure you have the CVision card
plugged in.
- It should work with BVisionPPC. As fas as I know it's the same chip
and the same memory address space. All you have to do is change
product ID (110 IIRC).
If anybody wants to test it, I can send the diffs.
Testers are welcome! :)
kind regards
- Adam
