Hi,

Is it possible to achieve resolution bigger that 1024x768 with the
devg-smi7xx.so driver?

Regards,
Jacek

Driver description says that other resolutions are supported through
smi7xx.conf configuration file.
Is it possible to get an example of settings for the 1280x1024 mode?

And how should I start io-graphics & driver in that case?

io-graphics … ?

Hi.

And how should I start io-graphics & driver in that case?

  1. logout photon into text console,
  2. run “/usr/photon/bin/devgt-iographics -dldevg-smi7xx.so >>
    /etc/system/config/graphics-modes”
  3. In file /etc/system/config/graphics-modes has append new graphics modes.
  4. now run photon “ph”
  5. In “Configure->Graphics” —> “Video Driver” you can select new driver
    resolution.
  6. Press “Done” button, and now is new driver used by photon and testing 15
    sec.

Peter.

Hi,

I forgot to mention we are trying to start Photon
in 1280x1024 mode on ppcbe target.

With settings taken from “/etc/system/config/crtc-settings”
and adopted to the “smi7xx.conf” file graphics card works
fine with 640x480, 800x600 and 1024x768 resolution.

Unfortunately in 1280x1024 mode we only see a blank screen.

Maybe there is still something wrong with timings configuration
for the SMI7xx chip?

I will test the devg-smi7xx.so on the BIOS system (x86)
tomorrow…

The main question is:
Is it possible to achieve mode better than the last position
from resolution table in the driver description?

Regards,
Jacek
