Subject: New driver for the Silicon Motion Lynx series chips
Date: Wed, 1 Oct 2003 15:02:18 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20031001130218.GA8863@zensonic.dk> (raw)

Hi There

I have just finalized a new driver for the Silicon Motion Lynx series
chips. I have used it the last month or so. It works on my laptop, an
asus S8100 with the Lynx3DM chipset and I have just gained access to
another containing the LynxEM chip (on which I will test the driver
shortly). As the most critical part, the TFT timings, are taken from
XFree86 and/or the BIOS in my laptop, I do not think this driver will
break anything.

The driver only supports Digital Flat Panels at the moment (due
to time constraints in the course) but I will add real CRT
monitor support as soon as possible(tm)

The driver is totally accelerated with all three types of
blits and a hardware cursor.

Code can be found at http://www.dina.kvl.dk/~thomassi/lynxfb
It plugs into /usr/src/linux/drivers/video/lynxfb if unpacked in 
/usr/src/linux/drivers/video

There are 3 diff files in the code. One for the Makefile in drivers/video,
one for Kconfig and one for pci_ids.h

Regards Thomas S. Iversen
