ATI Pro Turbo PC2TV card with 8MB is working

Post by Nilanjan Bhowmi » Sun, 01 Mar 1998 04:00:00



This card uses  ATI 3D RAGE II Chipset.
It is working with Metro X server bundled with Redhat 5.0.

Only problem is refresh rate is little lower than my old diamond
stealth.

My monitor supports 63.1 Hz Vertical at 1280 x 1024. But with this card
I am getting 59.7 Hz !!

Do you know what file I can specify a higher HZ.

thanks

        /etc/X11/XF86Config

        There are some lines in there dealing with refresh rates for a
particular resolution.
        Adjust them in SMALL steps, and test, then adjust again. If you have a
good monitor, overscanning should not hurt it (the modern ones go blank, and
say "out of range").

1. XF86Setup (3.2A) & ATI 3D PRO TURBO PC2TV 8MB ?

Hello!

I recently bought the ATI 3D Pro Turbo PC2TV 8MB,
and I'm using XFree86 3.2A since it has support for
the 3D Rage II chip.

But why doesn't the ATI 3D Pro Turbo PC2TV show up
when you choose a display adapter from the menu?

I could only find 3D Xpression...?  This works,
but I want a optimized version for the 3D Pro Turbo
PC2TV!  

As you probably know, the 3D Xpression is a much slower
board..  The 3D Pro Turbo uses SGRAM (upto 8MB) and the
3D Xpression uses EDO RAM (upto 4MB) etc..

I hope the XFree86 guys will support the 3D Pro Turbo
boards in the future as good as they did the Graphics
Pro Turbo boards in the past.

What is the currently best settings for the
ATI 3D Pro Turbo PC2TV 8MB in XFree86 3.2A ?

Thank you for any help! :-)
