-<title>Information for newport Users
-<author>Guido G&uuml;nther
-<date>24 February 2003
-<toc>
-
-<sect>Supported Hardware
-<p>
-This is an unaccelerated driver for the SGI newport cards (a.k.a. XL) as found
-in the SGI Indy and Indigo2. Both the 8bit and 24bit versions are tested and
-working.
-
-<sect>Features
-<p>
-<itemize>
- <item>Support for 8 and 24 bit pixel depths
- <item>Hardware cursor support to reduce flicker
-</itemize>
-
-<sect>Notes
-<p>
-<itemize>
- <item>X -configure does not generate a xorg.conf file.
- <item>There's only a 1280x1024 mode.
-</itemize>
-
-
-<sect>Configuration
-<p>
-The driver auto-detects all device information necessary to
-initialize the card on the Indy. The only lines you need in the "Device"
-section of your xorg.conf file are:
-<verb>
- Section "Device"
- Identifier "SGI newport"
- Driver "newport"
- EndSection
-</verb>
-Indigo2 users have to use the BusID option as documented below.
-
-However, if you have problems with auto-detection, you can specify:
-<itemize>
- <item>bitplanes - number of physical bitplanes (8 or 24)
- <item>HWCursor - enable or disable hardware cursor
- <item>BusID - set this to "1" on the Indigo2 XL
-</itemize>
