DESCRIPTION
trident is an Xorg driver for Trident video cards. The driver is ac-
celerated, and provides support for the following framebuffer depths:
1, 4, 8, 15, 16, and 24. Multi-head configurations are supported. The
XvImage extension is supported on TGUI96xx and greater cards.
SUPPORTED HARDWARE
The trident driver supports PCI,AGP and ISA video cards based on the
following Trident chips:
Blade Blade3D, CyberBlade series i1, i7 (DSTN), i1, i1 (DSTN),
Ai1, Ai1 (DSTN), CyberBlade/e4, CyberBladeXP, Cy-
berBladeAi1/XP, BladeXP
Image 3DImage975, 3DImage985, Cyber9520, Cyber9525, Cyber9397,
Cyber9397DVD
ProVidia 9682, 9685, Cyber9382, Cyber9385, Cyber9388
TGUI 9440AGi, 9660, 9680
ISA/VLBus 8900C, 8900D, 9000, 9200CXr, Cyber9320, 9400CXi, 9440AGi
These cards have been ported but need further testing and
may not work.
CONFIGURATION DETAILS
Please refer to xorg.conf(5) for general configuration details. This
section only covers configuration details specific to this driver.
The following driver Options are supported:
Option "SWCursor" "boolean"
Enable or disable the SW cursor. Default: off.
Option "NoAccel" "boolean"
Disable or enable acceleration. Default: acceleration is en-
abled.
Option "PciRetry" "boolean"
Enable or disable PCI retries. Default: off.
Option "CyberShadow" "boolean"
For Cyber chipsets only, turn off shadow registers. If you only
see a partial display - this may be the option for you. Default:
on.
Option "CyberStretch" "boolean"
For Cyber chipsets only, turn on stretching. When the resolution
is lower than the LCD's screen, this option will stretch the
graphics mode to fill the entire LCD. Default: off.
Option "ShadowFB" "boolean"
Enable or disable use of the shadow framebuffer layer. Default:
off.
Option "VideoKey" "integer"
This sets the default pixel value for the YUV video overlay key.
Default: undefined.
Option "TVChipset" "string"
This sets the TV chipset. Options are CH7005 or VT1621. De-
fault: off.
Option "TVSignal" "integer"
This sets the TV signalling. Options are 0 for NTSC or 1 for
PAL. Default: undefined.
Option "NoPciBurst" "boolean"
Turn off PCI burst mode, PCI Bursting is on by default. De-
fault: off.
Option "XvHsync" "integer"
Override the default Horizontal-sync value for the Xv extension.
This is used to center the Xv image on the screen. By default
the values are assigned based on the video card. Default: 0.
Option "XvVsync" "integer"
Override the default Vertical-sync value for the Xv extension.
This is used to center the Xv image on the screen. By default
the values are assigned based on the video card. Default: 0.
Option "XvBskew" "integer"
Override the default Bottom skew value for the Xv extension.
This is used to extend the Xv image on the screen at the bottom.
By default the values are assigned based on the video card. De-
fault: 0.
Option "XvRskew" "integer"
Override the default Right skew value for the Xv extension.
This is used to extend the Xv image on the screen at the right.
By default the values are assigned based on the video card. De-
fault: 0.
Option "Display" "string"
Override the display. Possible values are "CRT", "LCD" and
"Dual". Please note that this option is only experimentally.
Default: Use display active when X started.
Option "Display1400" "boolean"
Inform driver to expect 1400x1050 display instead of a
1280x1024. Default: off.
Option "GammaBrightness" "string"
Set display gamma value and brightness. "string" is "gamma,
brightness", where gamma is a floating point value greater than
0 and less or equal to 10. brightness is an integer value
greater or equal to 0 and less than 128. Default: gamma and
brightness control is turned off. Note: This is not supported
on all chipsets. Option "AccelMethod" "string" Choose accelera-
tion architecture, either "XAA" or "EXA". XAA is the old (but
stable) XFree86 based acceleration architecture. EXA is a newer
and simpler acceleration architecture designed to better accel-
erate the X Render extension. Default: "XAA".
