QNX6.1 & video card

Hello,

I have a PC with CPU card with biult-in video card. Video card is ATI 128
Rage …
When I installed a QNX 4.25 I had a problem 'cause system did’nt recognize
this type of ATI. I had to use
show_pci an add its results to
/qnx4/graphics/trappers/crttrap.list
After that photon recognized video card well.
But the same problem is with QNX6.1. My Photon runs only with SVGA driver
and in my opinion thats why my phindows or phditto session freezes.
I need help to solve this problem.

Thanks,
Kamil

Hum, I don’t see how that would affect phindows?

Hi Kamil,

Can you run the grafxscript found at:

And send the generated tar file to me.

I don’t know how it affects phindows, but the video card is only thing that
has not appropriate driver. And the fact is that phindows freezes (also
phditto) suddenly and very often. I have version 1.20.
How can I found out what happens or hwere is problem??

The video driver is independant of Phindows. Think of like this:

  • the drawing command are created/altered then sent to either the
    graphics driver (if it is local) or remotely via phrelay. So the
    video card shouldn’t matter.

Actually, think of it like this: drawing commands are written to a buffer.

Any number of video drivers, from zero on up, either local or remote can
read through this buffer and selectivly display portions (based on currently
visable coordinates) of those drawing commands.

Hello Kamil

This sounds like a bug that was in phrelay that was fixed a couple of
weeks ago, but unfortunately it didn’t make it in to 6.1A.

Thanks

Hi Kamil,

Your graphics adapter PCI id isn’t in our
enumerator. We will add it here, but you will have to
manually edit your /etc/system/enum/devices/graphics
file and add a line for his device to the devg-ati_rage128.so
driver:

device(pci, ven=$(PCI_VEND_ATI), dev=5452) # ATI Rage 128
