=== Neomagic MagicMedia256AV ===
This is a Neomagic video adapter

=== Features ===
* Chipset: Neomagic NM2200
* PCI ID: 10c8:0005
* AGP 1X
* 2.5MB SGRAM
</div>
|style="vertical-align:top" |
|}

=== Linux X.Org driver ===
This chip is supported by the 'neomagic' driver as part of the X.Org distribution. Hardware acceleration is not supported at color depths above 16-bit.

The XVideo (xv) extension is supported in the driver. Xv problems in applications such as xine and mplayer may be helped by setting the "OverlayMem" option in the "Device" section of xorg.conf.

Option "OverlayMem" "829440" # Sufficient memory for a full-screen DVD

==== ThinkPad LCD ====
Display on the internal LCD works as long as you set the monitor settings correct.

==== External VGA port ====
??
==== SVideo port ====
Works with VESA & mplayer

=== Linux kernel Framebuffer driver ===
I use the NeoMagic Framebuffer Driver in the Kernel 2.6.12rc5,
since Kernel 2.6.8 with the following Configuration:

#
# Console display driver support
#
CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_FONT_8x8=y
CONFIG_FONT_8x16=y

# Graphics support
#
CONFIG_FB=y
CONFIG_FB_CFB_FILLRECT=y
CONFIG_FB_CFB_COPYAREA=y
CONFIG_FB_CFB_IMAGEBLIT=y
CONFIG_FB_SOFT_CURSOR=y
CONFIG_FB_MODE_HELPERS=y
CONFIG_FB_VESA=y
CONFIG_VIDEO_SELECT=y
CONFIG_FB_NEOMAGIC=y

I normally use the 1024x768-16bit.
It is good enough th play mplayer-videos oh this Framebuffer Device with the Option "-vo fbdev".
If you use the devfs Filesystem, you must use the device /dev/fb/0 device.

the fb-settings are:

mode "1024x768-60"
D: 65.003 MHz, H: 48.365 kHz, V: 60.006 Hz
geometry 1024 768 1024 768 16
timings 15384 160 24 29 3 136 6
rgba 5/11,6/5,5/0,0/0
endmode

S3 Savage IX8

Jruschme: /* ThinkPad LCD */

__NOTOC__

=== S3 Savage IX8 or IX8+===
This is a S3 video adapter<br>
S3 is now owned by Via Technologies

The IX8 and IX8+ chips share the same PCI-ID

=== Features ===
* Chipset: S3
* PCI ID: 5333:8c12
* AGP 2X
* 8MB SGRAM video memory
</div>
|style="vertical-align:top" |
|}

=== Linux X.Org driver ===
This chip is supported by the '[[savage]]' driver as part of the X.Org distribution.

==== ThinkPad LCD ====
Display on the internal LCD works as long as you set the monitor settings correctly. The driver does not appear
to support [DPMS] on the internal LCD, so it is necessary to make sure that horizontal sync and vertical refresh settings are included in the "Monitor" section of xorg.conf.

HorizSync 31.5 - 48.5
VertRefresh 50-70

==== External VGA port ====
Works. Fn-F7 switches between LCD and CRT. To use both, use [http://www.probo.com/timr/savage40.html s3switch] (on some models you need to run "'''s3switch lcd crt tv'''" even if you want only CRT and LCD, otherwise the CRT display is corrupted). You can also use [[ibm-acpi]] to control video output by echoing commands to /proc/acpi/ibm/video.

==== SVideo port ====
Works. Use [http://www.probo.com/timr/savage40.html s3switch] to change display output in software.

=== Linux kernel Framebuffer driver ===
This chip will work with either the 'vesa' or 'savagefb' driver as part of any recent 2.4 or 2.6 kernel.

==== Dual Monitor Tip ====
The chip supports using an external monitor plus the LCD as one big monitor. This can lead to a problem
if X is configured for this, but the external monitor has been detached. This creates a ghost monitor that you
cannot see, but can move the mouse onto and applications can open windows on.

Sometimes in this situation it's necessary to grab a window from the ghost monitor and drag it into view.
This can be done by moving the mouse onto the ghost screen and then holding down the ALT key, which allows you
to click-and-drag a window back into view. To see what is on the ghost monitor, a screen capture utility like
Ksnapshot can help you. When it takes a screenshot of the entire screen, it will show the contents of the ghost
screen, even though you can't see it directly.

=== Quirks ===
==== Power Management and savagefb ====
The savagefb appears to interfere with acpi sleep. (tested on 2.6 kernels up to 2.6.12) There are also some display problems with savagefb including limiting boot text to a 800x600 window centered in a 1024x768 display and problems with libdirectfb. For those reasons, vesafb is recommended as the framebuffer driver.

==== Video-related System Lockups ====
Some quirks in the interactions between the OS and the Savage hardware can cause system lockups, especially due to high video load and 3D rendering operations. For a more complete description of this problem and the workarounds, see the [[Problem with video related system lockup]] page.

==== The Black 'X' (old X pointer) Problem ====
On some systems a black 'X' (which is actually the old default XFree86 pointer) appears frozen in the middle of the screen inside of X Windows. This problem can be remedied by setting

Option "SWCursor" "on"

in xorg.conf. Also see the [[Problem with black X]] page for more information.

==== 3D Acceleration Quirks ====
If 3D acceleration is not working on your system (after installing the DRM savage module), or 3D programs are exhibiting strange behavior, one of the following changes may fix the problem. First, most Savage chips do not have enough video memory to support 3D textures and acceleration with a frame buffer depth of 24 bits. Therefore, you may need to change "DefaultDepth 24" to "DefaultDepth 16" in the "Screen" section of xorg.conf (and of course provide the appropriate subsection for 16 bit depth if it is not present). Also, adding one of both of the following configuration options to the "Device" section of your xorg.conf may solve the video quirks (also explained in the [[Problem with video related system lockup|video related system lockup]] page)

Option "BusType" "PCI"
Option "DmaMode" "None"
