What is gxfb? | ||
================= | ||
|
||
This is a graphics framebuffer driver for AMD Geode GX2 based processors. | ||
|
||
Advantages: | ||
|
||
* No need to use AMD's VSA code (or other VESA emulation layer) in the | ||
BIOS. | ||
* It provides a nice large console (128 cols + 48 lines with 1024x768) | ||
without using tiny, unreadable fonts. | ||
* You can run XF68_FBDev on top of /dev/fb0 | ||
* Most important: boot logo :-) | ||
|
||
Disadvantages: | ||
|
||
* graphic mode is slower than text mode... | ||
|
||
|
||
How to use it? | ||
============== | ||
|
||
Switching modes is done using gxfb.mode_option=<resolution>... boot | ||
parameter or using `fbset' program. | ||
|
||
See Documentation/fb/modedb.txt for more information on modedb | ||
resolutions. | ||
|
||
|
||
X11 | ||
=== | ||
|
||
XF68_FBDev should generally work fine, but it is non-accelerated. | ||
|
||
|
||
Configuration | ||
============= | ||
|
||
You can pass kernel command line options to gxfb with gxfb.<option>. | ||
For example, gxfb.mode_option=800x600@75. | ||
Accepted options: | ||
|
||
mode_option - specify the video mode. Of the form | ||
<x>x<y>[-<bpp>][@<refresh>] | ||
vram - size of video ram (normally auto-detected) | ||
|
