All fonts are supported, including the - SUN12x22 font which is very nice at high resolutions. - - -mode:X - default video mode with format [xres]x[yres]-<bpp>@<refresh rate> - The following video modes are supported: - 640x640-16@60, 640x480-24@60, 640x480-32@60. The Dreamcast - defaults to 640x480-16@60. At the time of writing the - 24bpp and 32bpp modes function poorly. Work to fix that is - ongoing - - Note: the 640x240 mode is currently broken, and should not be - used for any reason. It is only mentioned here as a reference. - -inverse - invert colors on screen (for LCD displays) - -nomtrr - disables write combining on frame buffer. This slows down driver - but there is reported minor incompatibility between GUS DMA and - XFree under high loads if write combining is enabled (sound - dropouts). MTRR is enabled by default on systems that have it - configured and that support it. - -cable:X - cable type. This can be any of the following: vga, rgb, and - composite. If none is specified, we guess. - -output:X - output type. This can be any of the following: pal, ntsc, and - vga. If none is specified, we guess. - -X11 -=== - -XF86_FBDev has been shown to work on the Dreamcast in the past - though not yet -on any 2.6 series kernel. - --- -Paul Mundt <lethal@linuxdc.org> -Updated by Adrian McMenamin <adrian@mcmen.demon.co.uk> - |
