Re: [parisc-linux] Can't start X-windows on HP C240 with HP FX4 graphics card ?

["b.gunreben" <b.gunreben@web.de>]

Hi,

the FX? Cards are unsupported at the moment. However, if I understand
correctly, there has been a port for x86 linux at times of kernel
2.2.16. I am not a kernel hacker, but I would like to know if there is a
possibility to port the beta quality  driver from 
http://www.hp.com/workstations/support/software/drivers/linux/video/fxvideo/
to current kernels.
