33 | Default video modes | |
34 | ------------------- | |
35 | At the moment, there are two kernel command line arguments supported: | |
36 | ||
37 | mode:640x480 | |
38 | mode:800x600 | |
39 | or | |
40 | mode:1024x768 | |
41 | ||
42 | Full support for startup video modes (modedb) will be integrated soon. | |
43 | ||
44 | Version 1.9.9.1 | |
45 | --------------- | |
46 | * Fix memory detection for 512kB case | |
47 | * 800x600 mode | |
48 | * Fixed timings | |
49 | * Hint for AXP: Use -accel false -vyres -1 when changing resolution | |
50 | ||
51 | ||
52 | Version 1.9.4.4 | |
53 | --------------- | |
54 | * Preliminary Laguna support | |
55 | * Overhaul color register routines. | |
56 | * Associated with the above, console colors are now obtained from a LUT | |
57 | called 'palette' instead of from the VGA registers. This code was | |
58 | modeled after that in atyfb and matroxfb. | |
59 | * Code cleanup, add comments. | |
60 | * Overhaul SR07 handling. | |
61 | * Bug fixes. | |
62 | ||
63 | ||
64 | Version 1.9.4.3 | |
65 | --------------- | |
66 | * Correctly set default startup video mode. | |
67 | * Do not override ram size setting. Define | |
68 | CLGEN_USE_HARDCODED_RAM_SETTINGS if you _do_ want to override the RAM | |
69 | setting. | |
70 | * Compile fixes related to new 2.3.x IORESOURCE_IO[PORT] symbol changes. | |
71 | * Use new 2.3.x resource allocation. | |
72 | * Some code cleanup. | |
73 | ||
74 | ||
75 | Version 1.9.4.2 | |
76 | --------------- | |
77 | * Casting fixes. | |
78 | * Assertions no longer cause an oops on purpose. | |
79 | * Bug fixes. | |
80 | ||
81 | ||
82 | Version 1.9.4.1 | |
83 | --------------- | |
84 | * Add compatibility support. Now requires a 2.1.x, 2.2.x or 2.3.x kernel. | |
85 | ||
86 | ||
87 | Version 1.9.4 | |
88 | ------------- | |
89 | * Several enhancements, smaller memory footprint, a few bugfixes. | |
90 | * Requires kernel 2.3.14-pre1 or later. | |
91 | ||
92 | ||
93 | Version 1.9.3 | |
94 | ------------- | |
95 | * Bundled with kernel 2.3.14-pre1 or later. | |
