-
- Installing the Driver
-
- 1. Run the INSTALL program for your ATI video adapter (found on your original
- ATI diskette #1) under DOS and check the "Power-Up Configuration" to ensure
- that you have selected an appropriate monitor type.
-
- 2. Boot the Unix system and login as root in system administration mode. Use
- the 'sysadmsh' and media selection to unpack the tar file (ATI SCO Unix
- diskette.) This should generate a readme.mach64, mach64.xgi grafinfo file
- and XDriver.o on your system.
- /readme.mach64
- /usr/lib/grafinfo/ati/mach64.xgi
- /usr/lib/X11/dyddx/cxm/XDriver.o
-
- 3. Run 'mkdev graphics' and select the resolution desired from the ATI MACH64
- selection setups. Save this configuration and exit. The system must build
- a new kernel to conform to this setup, and the system should be rebooted
- after this is complete. This should link /usr/lib/X11/dyddx/cxm/XDriver.o
- into the X Server.
-
-
-
- Current known problems and limitations
-
- 1. The 24/32 bit per pixel modes are not supported.
