I didn't know this lib (can be found as part of svgalib for those who care). "unclean" is less than the reality! ;) The graphic chip is a cyber5000, and the kernel driver only handles (few) vga modes. I'm working on the TV output, in PAL format. I can't manage to set good timings (but almost), and the main problem is the interlaced mode I just cannot set correctly. TVIA's doc is very poor (and we can't offer ourself the TVIA SDK that cost a lot)... I hope that I'll find some tools in the video BIOS for that. By the way, do you have any tip for setting TVout to PAL mode in a cyberpro graphic chip? Thanks Rudolf for pointing this lib.
