Hello,
there is a problem with the G400 and the version of the Matrox Gx00 accel
sublib for KGI in the CVS tree right now. "copybox" is erroneous and
freezes the target display. The computer is still usable, but the
associated head is... problematic to use (unless you love to work in text
mode while stripes flow the screen, in this case you should rush for this
implementation because I hope it won't last too long).
It seems we also need a "reset" ioctl() for KGI... :-)
Note also that Jos reported init problems (more critical) with a G400 on
his computer.
Btw, here are some ggibench results (for fun: I've never done any
performance and that's certainly too early to do that... :-). ATI still
hold the crown for certain.
