Information for ATI Rage 128 Users
Precision Insight, Inc., SuSE GmbH
12 November 1999
1. Supported Hardware
o ATI Rage 128 based cards
2. Features
o Full support (including hardware accelerated 2D drawing) for 8, 15, 16,
24 bit pixel depths.
o Hardware cursor support to reduce sprite flicker.
o Support for high resolution video modes up to 1800x1440 @ 70Hz.
o Support for doublescan video modes (e.g., 320x200 and 320x240).
o Support for gamma correction at all pixel depths.
o Fully programmable clock supported.
o Robust text mode restore for VT switching.
3. Technical Notes
o None
4. Reported Working Video Cards
o Rage Fury AGP 32MB
o XPERT 128 AGP 16MB
o XPERT 99 AGP 8MB
5. Configuration
The driver auto-detects all device information necessary to initialize the
card. The only lines you need in the "Device" section of your XF86Config
file are:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Rage 128"
Driver "r128"
EndSection
or let xf86config do this for you.
However, if you have problems with auto-detection, you can specify:
o VideoRam - in kilobytes
o MemBase - physical address of the linear framebuffer
o IOBase - physical address of the memory mapped IO registers
o ChipID - PCI DEVICE ID
6. Driver Options
o "hw_cursor" - request hardware cursor (default)
o "sw_cursor" - software cursor only
o "no_accel" - software rendering only
o "dac_8_bit" - use color weight 888 in 8 bpp mode (default)
o "dac_6_bit" - use color weight 666 in 8 bpp mode (VGA emulation)
7. Known Limitations
o DGA is not supported yet
8. Authors
The XFree86 4 driver was ported from XFree86 3.3.x and enhanced by:
o Rickard E. (Rik) Faith <faith@precisioninsight.com>
o Kevin E. Martin <kevin@precisioninsight.com>
The XFree86 4 driver was funded by ATI and was donated to The XFree86 Project
