From b32fd10dd6fc1292d78a3a6a6cb87e1ad904f142 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pascal Rigaux Date: Mon, 28 Feb 2005 23:06:31 +0000 Subject: - remove ddcxinfos, replaced by monitor-edid (which is in a separate package) - add many resolutions (they are structured by aspect ratio for next move) - put the "Monitor preferred modeline" from EDID in xorg.conf - for this ModeLine must be exported from the monitor section - specifying a VendorName|ModelName in auto_inst is valid, don't overwrite it with edid probe - the strange /dev/zero needed (?) by ddcxinfos is no more needed - field {size} is now {diagonal_size}, and is no more "corrected" - add @CVT_ratios and @CVT_vfreqs (unused at the moment) - Getopt::Long is needed by monitor-parse-edid --- tools/ddcprobe/int10/README | 35 ----------------------------------- 1 file changed, 35 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 tools/ddcprobe/int10/README (limited to 'tools/ddcprobe/int10/README') diff --git a/tools/ddcprobe/int10/README b/tools/ddcprobe/int10/README deleted file mode 100644 index 4b7d0fa02..000000000 --- a/tools/ddcprobe/int10/README +++ /dev/null @@ -1,35 +0,0 @@ - -This is a preliminary version of a VGA softbooter for LINUX. - -It makes use of the of the vm86() call and is therefore only -usable on ix86 systems. -There are plans to port this program to use a x86 emulator -like x86emu.
