My questions are:



¿ Is the chipset backward compatible so i can run the i8xx driver ?



If not, ¿ Which driver do you recommend ?



¿ Is it possible at all to configure XFree86 in this motherboard ?


The driver appears to support the 945G, so it should work right out of the 
box.

   You really just need to profile it and find where all the
time is spent.  If the video BIOS is doing all the initialization
then it's likely that all the waiting is done there.  It's undoubtedly
all the monitor probing and clock setting and the associated delays
and timeouts related to that.  If the video card has multiple connectors
it will probably be looking for devices on all connectors and trying
that until it's convinced that it has found them all.

Then, the VESA driver of current XFree86 has unnecessary waits?
If so, I will try to get rid of. But, as far as I have glanced
the code, it just does call a VESA BIOS and it is all it does.
So, even there are unnecessary waits, they seems to be in a BIOS
code, I suppose.

Well, in MACH BOOT, it is possible to hard-code IDE params,
because most PCs has same param. But not possible to hard-code
DDC (EDID or...) because there are so many kind of monitor.
Any idea?

Re: [XFree86] Driver H/W init delay

2006-05-29 Thread Mark Vojkovich 
  Things like getting monitor information through DDC take
a long time.  Also, because clocks are being set there are
PLL settling times that need to be observed least you mess
things up by touching the hardware before the PLLs lock.

  It may be that particular drivers have unnecessary waits here
and there, but you really have to address them one by one,
profiling to find the wait and then investigating whether or
not it's really necessary.

  I have worked on systems with boot times times on the order of
a few seconds but these weren't trying to access VESA bios services
or probing monitors through DDC.  If you remove stuff like that, the
boot times will probably be dominated by IDE probing, but then
you end up having to hardcode things like monitor EDIDs that
the driver would usually try to probe.

So what driver are you using?  http://www.xfree.org/help.html
suggests "it is usually a good idea to include with your message 
a copy of your XFree86 log file (/var/log/XFree86.0.log) and

You should run XFree86 4.3.0 or later and use the "radeon" driver.

Something like this for your device section:

Assuming this is from 4.3, a snapshot driver will likely help.

Use 4.3.
I'm not sure whether the 4.3 driver will use the extra functionality 
of the AGP bus, but if it doesn't 3.3.6 certainly wont.

I have an Xpert98 PCI and an Xpert99 AGP running with 4.2 and 4.3 -
I'm reasonable certain that 4.3 supports the Xpert98 AGP as well.

Re: [XFree86] Driver for NVIDIA GeForce4 440 Go DDR

2003-01-13 Thread Mark Vojkovich 
   If you don't want to use NVIDIA's binary drivers, this chip is also 
supported in XFree86 CVS.  The last binary snapshot of CVS was 4.2.99.3
which is available at ftp.xfree86.org in the snapshots directory.
This chip was released after the last official XFree86 release, which
is why it's only supported in CVS.  Only the binary drivers from
NVIDIA's web site support OpenGL acceleration, however.

The impatient can go to http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?IO=linux_display_ia32_1.0-4191 
and
get a driver (non-free, but gratis).

Red Hat Linux 8.0 comes with XFree86 4.2.0, which does not 
support the GeForce 4 series of hardware.

XFree86 development code contains such support however, and the 
next release of Red Hat Linux will have this support later this 
year.
