<h1>Tridentfb<a class="headerlink" href="#tridentfb" title="Link to this heading">¶</a></h1>
<p>Tridentfb is a framebuffer driver for some Trident chip based cards.</p>
<p>The following list of chips is thought to be supported although not all are
tested:</p>
<p>those from the TGUI series 9440/96XX and with Cyber in their names
those from the Image series and with Cyber in their names
those with Blade in their names (Blade3D,CyberBlade...)
the newer CyberBladeXP family</p>
<p>All families are accelerated. Only PCI/AGP based cards are supported,
none of the older Tridents.
The driver supports 8, 16 and 32 bits per pixel depths.
The TGUI family requires a line length to be power of 2 if acceleration
is enabled. This means that range of possible resolutions and bpp is
limited comparing to the range if acceleration is disabled (see list
of parameters below).</p>
<p>Known bugs:</p>
<ol class="arabic simple">
<li><p>The driver randomly locks up on 3DImage975 chip with acceleration
enabled. The same happens in X11 (Xorg).</p></li>
<li><p>The ramdac speeds require some more fine tuning. It is possible to
switch resolution which the chip does not support at some depths for
older chips.</p></li>
</ol>
<section id="how-to-use-it">
<h2>How to use it?<a class="headerlink" href="#how-to-use-it" title="Link to this heading">¶</a></h2>
<p>When booting you can pass the video parameter:</p>
<div class="highlight-none notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>video=tridentfb
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>The parameters for tridentfb are concatenated with a ‘:’ as in this example:</p>
<div class="highlight-none notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>video=tridentfb:800x600-16@75,noaccel
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>The second level parameters that tridentfb understands are:</p>
<table class="docutils align-default">
<tbody>
<tr class="row-odd"><td><p>noaccel</p></td>
<td><p>turns off acceleration (when it doesn’t work for your card)</p></td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-even"><td><p>fp</p></td>
<td><p>use flat panel related stuff</p></td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-odd"><td><p>crt</p></td>
<td><p>assume monitor is present instead of fp</p></td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-even"><td><p>center</p></td>
<td><p>for flat panels and resolutions smaller than native size center the
image, otherwise use</p></td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-odd"><td><p>stretch</p></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-even"><td><p>memsize</p></td>
<td><p>integer value in KB, use if your card’s memory size is misdetected.
look at the driver output to see what it says when initializing.</p></td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-odd"><td><p>memdiff</p></td>
<td><p>integer value in KB, should be nonzero if your card reports
more memory than it actually has. For instance mine is 192K less than
detection says in all three BIOS selectable situations 2M, 4M, 8M.
Only use if your video memory is taken from main memory hence of
configurable size. Otherwise use memsize.
If in some modes which barely fit the memory you see garbage
at the bottom this might help by not letting change to that mode
anymore.</p></td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-even"><td><p>nativex</p></td>
<td><p>the width in pixels of the flat panel.If you know it (usually 1024
800 or 1280) and it is not what the driver seems to detect use it.</p></td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-odd"><td><p>bpp</p></td>
<td><p>bits per pixel (8,16 or 32)</p></td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-even"><td><p>mode</p></td>
<td><p>a mode name like <a class="reference external" href="mailto:800x600-8%4075">800x600-8<span>@</span>75</a> as described in
<a class="reference internal" href="modedb.html"><span class="doc">modedb default video mode support</span></a></p></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p>Using insane values for the above parameters will probably result in driver
misbehaviour so take care(for instance memsize=12345678 or memdiff=23784 or
nativex=93)</p>
