QNX4 & intel810 chipset

Does anybody know if this is supported by QNX4/Photon. It would appear
that the Intel 810 chipset integrates VGA with shared system memory and
UltraDMA66 IDE interface.

The supported hardware list does not list this controller as supported
by Fsys.eide, but perhaps I can assume it can since it just claims to be
IDE.

I imagine though that the video is a sad story. Does anybody know of any
plans for a driver for this chipset?

I am referring specifically to the Rocky-3782 PICMG Single Board
Computer so if anybody has any experience with this board and QNX, I
would be pleased to hear from them.

Hi Donald,

There is a driver for the i810 chipset in the latest beta patch for
Photon. If you are interested you can join the beta program and
obtain the patch by e-mailing beta@qnx.com and giving them your name,
company name, QUICS user ID, beta program you wish to join (Photon),
along with what you would like to use (beta graphics patch for Photon
runtime).

Take care!

Erick.
