- ClockProg
- ---------
-
- This is an attempt to get ALL known chipsets in one program for use as a
- "ClockProg" program (either in X or SVGATextMode).
-
- This is useful for XFREE86, where some built-in clock chips (ICD2061a and
- ICS9161) don't support text clock restoration. If you use a ClockProg, you
- can make X restore the correct text mode clock again, so you CAN use
- SVGATextMode together with X.
-
- It also enables the low clocks needed for 320x200 modes in X, which X seems
- to deny, despite the "divide-by-2" mode that all VGA's have. So now any
- "normal" VGA card can always access e.g. the 12.5 MHz clock needed for
- 320x200 (DOOM!).
-
- Also, because of the "divide by two" feature that X doesn't have, you
- actually get access to twice as many pixel clocks as you get from X!
