Vigra VS-10 hardware docs, anyone?
Digging through a box of SBus cards pulled out of storage, I found a
card marked "© 1991 VIGRA, INC. VS-10 REV B". It's got a back panel
with four switches and a DA-15 connector.
Poking at it with the console FORTH in an SS20 made it look like a
framebuffer. So I de-tokenized the FCode and, sure enough, it is.
I've got it working enough that I could probably build an X ddx layer
for it.
But it involves a lot of magic numbers. My current code reads like
set_g300_reg(0x4a0,0x800);
set_g300_reg(0x4a4,0x198);
set_g300_reg(0x4a8,0x0);
set_g300_reg(0x4ac,0x1e3);
set_g300_reg(0x4b0,0x1d);
set_g300_reg(0x500,0xff);
I know it's a long shot, but I'm wondering if, by any chance, anyone
knows where to find hardware documentation to help me turn some of
those magic numbers into something a little less cryptic.
