From: "da Silva, Joe" 

Greetings, Veit.



Yes, the XFree86 code might have what I need, however,

it is very complicated and I don't understand it.  :-(



Also, I can't find the relevant code in the MGL sources.

Although there is a brief mention of ET6000 in one small

text document, there seems no mention in the code itself.

I suspect the stuff I want is not in the public sources?



As for the VESA level, unfortunately it is only V2.1, so

that's no help with this problem either.



>From the ET4000 information, I can see this stuff is very

complicated and messy, with lots of bits scattered between

different registers. So trying to reverse-engineer something

like XFree86 to figure out what's what on the ET6000 is

beyond my capabilities. There just has to be a datasheet

for the ET6000 out there somewhere, if only I can find it.



Joe.

Do not have any informations, but the XFree86 display

driver code should tell a bit..

Can you use the Scitech SNAP video libraries (MGL)?



If the card has VESA 3.0 support, it should also possible to set

the refresh rate hardware independend.
