Trident driver implementation notes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is a software-only driver for Trident chipsets, based on the native
|
|
Trident driver from old versions of the Allegro library. It only supports
|
|
256 color modes, and has no support for linear framebuffers or
|
|
accelerated drawing. This code has been made obsolete by the accelerated
|
|
TGUI driver recently written by SET, and is included only because it may
|
|
support a slightly wider range of chipset variants. Any future
|
|
development effort should be spent on improving the TGUI driver instead
|
|
of this one.
|
|
|
|
This code is not portable to any platforms other than DOS+DPMI, because
|
|
it uses BIOS calls to set the initial video mode.
