Hi all,
I've gotten LinuxBIOS working without much of a hitch, but I'm trying
to get the VGA console working. I've been looking through the email
archives without much success, then I found this page:
http://linuxbios.org/index.php/VGA_support
I have a Via Epia ML5000 board. My question is specific to this part,
found at the above URL:
If you want to use the onboard VGA chip, you have to do the
following in additional
to the CONFIG options described above.
1. in MB Config.lb You need to specify for your onboard VGA
device pci 9.0 on # PCI
chip drivers/pci/onboard
device pci 9.0 on end
register "rom_address" = "0xfff80000" #512k image
#register "rom_address" = "0xfff00000" #1M image
end
end
Is PCI 9.0 the correct value for the Via Epia-M onboard CLE266 video?
Is there a way to find out, such as lspci?
What about the "rom_address" field -- Can someone explain what this is,
and how to set it properly?
Thanks
-- Eric
