C&T 69000 support?

Hi,

I checked the supported hardware page
(http://qdn.qnx.com/support/hardware/qnx4/video.html#2) which indicates
all C&T (Chips & Technology) chips are supported in Photon 1.14.

Is this really true?

I want to buy an SBC that has the C&T 69000 chipset, and I want to be sure
it’s going to work with either a CRT or an LCD.

As an aside, it would be better to list the actual chip numbers supported
(tested), or at least a date so that you can feel confident the s/w support
is up to date with the current h/w generation.

Thanks, Tristan.

Chips and Technologies has been out of business for a while. They were sold
to Intel, and then Intel sold them to someone else.

It’s unlikely there will ever be another C&T chipset made. The latest is the
69030, and it does work with Photon 1.14 and the most recent driver updates.
