The Coral-P does not contain a byte swapper for the video memory, so it cannot be easily be used with a big endian CPU like many other grafik chips. Even the successor of the Coral-P has such a byte swapper. Our modifications to support Z-images are done in the non-accelerated driver in the shadow frame buffer extension. The Coral-P accelerated driver wasn't very stable when we tested it a while ago, I assume this very much depends on the functions you use. Roman -- Roman Fietze Telemotive AG Büro Mühlhausen
