<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
|
|
|
|
<B>vesa</B>
|
|
|
|
is an Xorg driver for generic VESA video cards. It can drive most
|
|
VESA-compatible video cards, but only makes use of the basic standard
|
|
VESA core that is common to these cards. The driver supports depths 8, 15
|
|
16 and 24.

|
<H2>SUPPORTED HARDWARE</H2>
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
<B>vesa</B>
|
|
|
|
driver supports most VESA-compatible video cards. There are some known
|
|
exceptions, and those should be listed here.

|
<H2>CONFIGURATION DETAILS</H2>
|
|
|
|
Please refer to <A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?5+xorg.conf">xorg.conf</A>(5) for general configuration
|
|
details. This section only covers configuration details specific to this
|
|
driver.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
The driver auto-detects the presence of VESA-compatible hardware. The
|
|
<B>ChipSet</B>
|
|
|
|
name may optionally be specified in the config file
|
|
<B>"Device"</B>
|
|
|
|
section, and will override the auto-detection:

|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
The following driver
|
|
<B>Options</B>
|
|
|
|
are supported:
|
|
<DL COMPACT>
|
|
<DT id="2"><B>Option "ShadowFB" "</B><I>boolean</I><B>"</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
Enable or disable use of the shadow framebuffer layer. Default: on.
|
|
<P>
|
|
This option is recommended for performance reasons.
|
|
<DT id="3"><B>Option "ModeSetClearScreen" "</B><I>boolean</I><B>"</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
Clear the screen on mode set. Some BIOSes seem to be broken in the
|
|
sense that the newly set video mode is bogus if they are asked to
|
|
clear the screen during mode setting. If you experience problems try
|
|
to turn this option off. Default: on.
