I have a Cirrus Logic AGP card - CL-GD5465. It’s not very well
supported in any OS except the MS type (not DOS). When I instal QNX,
I automatically get VGA, 640x480, 4 bit color. The GUI display is
very difficult to work with.
Are there any drivers I can use with this card?
Is there any way I can improve the colour depth and/or the resolution.
I tried putting an older trident Providea 9685 video card on my
machine, but for some reason it keeps locking up the machine in Win95
and NT.
Qnx could easily become my OS of choice for use and development, but
not with this current problem.
Thanks for any replies.

You could try the vesa modes. That worked for me on some unknown S3
chipsets.
Launch->Configure->Video Display.

Hi David,
Are you running Patch A yet? It has a SVGA driver in it that
may help you get more resolutions and more color depth (unacclerated
though).

Hi Dave,
You can get it from the download repository or you can redownload the install
file from QNX.
Take care.
