From: paul@suite.sw.oz.au (Paul Antoine) Subject: [Q] Xconfig for ATI Wonder V3? Date: 29 Mar 1993 06:14:02 GMT
I've read everything I could find on deriving Xconfigs, including
readme's etc, but could find nothing that would work with my
(admittedly old) ATI VGA Wonder card (it's the early V3 version).
None of the modeDB entries produced anything other than a poorly (if
at all) sync'd display, and when I could see the X background and
mouse cursor - moving the cursor left garbage in its wake.
Comments in the driver such as 'V3 board support needs a lot of work -
I suspect it isn't worth it' lead me to believe that the support is
shakey at best. Anyone out there had some success with this card and
a generic SVGA monitor?
Patches, modeDB entries etc. warmly accepted (suggestions to buy a new
VGA card are not hugely helpful, as I have a CAD package under DOS
that correctly supports and it which is necessary for my business :-)
