EMGD driver for X 1.7.7 and kernel 2.6.33 (TinyCore Linux)

EMGD driver for X 1.7.7 and kernel 2.6.33 (TinyCore Linux)

[MONDON Daniel]

Hi everybody!

My configuration:
Board : intel Atom Z510 1.1 Ghz + US15W (menlow)
Screen 800x600x24bits on LVDS port
512Mo DDR2

 

I'm using TinyCore Linux (X 1.7.7 and 2.6.33-3 kernel).
And i want to have same (better may be normally possible) performances
as ubuntu 8.04 with iegd driver.

I've installed Intel Debian squeeze package driver (for X1.7.3), but the
system is blocked when X driver is loading! (stack error)

I've try Debian Squeeze with the driver, but it doesn't run!!!

Actions
     Install Debian Squeeze
     service gdm stop
     install driver (intel script)
     xorg.conf intel configuration!
     service gdm start
     ==> can't load emgd driver!

Is there any problem with driver and / or install script ?

Thanks,

Daniel.

Hi Daniel,

This list is for the Intel open source drivers; we can't help you with 
Poulsbo or EMGD.  There's probably another place to ask about that, but 
I'm not sure where.

Ideally there would be an open source driver for the PVR 535/SGX 
graphics that just works, but at this point, there isn't.

Hi,

the driver discussed on this mailing list does not handle the US15W
graphics. This is a PowerVR graphics core which has nothing to do with
the usual Intel graphics chips. AFAIK there is no better solution for
the US15W.
