Tseng driver implementation notes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is a software-only driver for the Tseng ET3000, ET4000, and ET6000
|
|
chipsets, based on the native Tseng drivers from old versions of the
|
|
Allegro library. It has no support for linear framebuffers or accelerated
|
|
drawing operations. As such it is useful primarily because it is faster
|
|
than the VESA 1.x bank switching mechanism, and as a workaround for the
|
|
many bugs in common VESA driver implementations.
|
|
|
|
This code is not portable to any platforms other than DOS+DPMI, because
|
|
it uses BIOS calls to set the initial video mode.
|
|
|
|
Any volunteers to add hardware accelerator support? That would be very
|
|
welcome if you want to do it :-)
