Subject: [U-Boot] VIDEOBOOT Patch for Linux 2.6?
Date: Sat, 13 Feb 2010 06:38:14 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4B769D36.6090200@netscape.net> (raw)

Hi guys,

I'm trying to get an x86 ATI card working on SPARC, and I think 
SciTechSoft's SNAP Videoboot is my best bet.  Unfortunately, the patch 
doesn't seem to be available from SciTechSoft (which has been acquired) 
anymore, and you guys are the only ones who seem to have anything 
resembling that code available for download.  So, I was wondering if any 
of you have a patch I can take and patch some 2.6 kernel with to boot my 
graphics card from.  I'm trying to use radeonfb, so VIDEOBOOT would be 
perfect for me ... I just can't find it anywhere!

If the easiest way for me to do this is to run U-Boot on a SunBlade 
2500, that's fine, but my understanding is that U-Boot is primarily for 
embedded systems.

So ... anyone have the videoboot-2.6x patch lying around?  Pretty please?

Please CC me as I am not on the list.

Thanks,
--Patrick Simmons
