In order to use it with DirectFB + VDR under Linux I'm looking for framebuffer driver for it. The only driver I've found is cyber2000fb available with a current kernels and it claims to support ex-IGS (now TVIA) CyberPro 5000 chipsets, that should be compatible with 5005 chipsets ( I have a full complete documentation on my chipset and it seems to be true ). The problem is that after cyber2000fb.o is correctly loaded into the kernel ( it properly recognizes 500X chipset, video memory amount and don't log warnings either errors ) - I see a white square on the screen ( ~ 640x480 on 720x576 ) traced with weird green diagonal lines. When I try to launch any example from DirectFB ( 640x480x16 60Hz for instance ) - the screen becomes flicking and BW, but I can see the graphic output ( images & animation ). Unfortunately I have not enough skill to solve this problem myself, but I have a full set of documentation for 500X chipset and big desire to learn. Please, help me to make this chipset work - any help will be appreciated. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: To learn the basics of securing your web site with SSL, click here to get a FREE TRIAL of a Thawte Server Certificate: http://www.gothawte.com/rd524.html
