To get the XV extension (for accelerated video output, e.g. with mplayer) to work properly with videos above approx. 340x288 an entry like Option &quot;OverlayMem&quot; &quot;1000000&quot; in xorg.conf is required. Videos above dvd resolution produce garbled output, however.<br /> <br /> ==== ThinkPad LCD ====<br /> Display on the internal LCD works as long as you set the monitor settings correct.<br /> <br /> ==== External VGA port ====<br /> Only up to 1024x768 @ 24-bit, 1280x1024 @ 8-bit. This is despite the 4Mb video ram which should allow 1280x1024 @ 16-bit but low memory bandwidth limits this to 8-bit.<br /> <br /> ==== Coposite video out ====<br /> TV-out functionality is only available under Windows 2000 with the driver supplied by IBM (v5.39). You need to delete the .inf supplied by Microsoft (neo20xx.inf) to force an install of the IBM driver as Win2k will otherwise prefer the Microsoft one. You will know that you're using the Microsoft driver if the NeoMagic tab is missing from your advanced display properties. It also refers to the adapter as a &quot;MagicGraph256ZX&quot; as opposed to the IBM driver which labels it &quot;MagicMedia256ZX&quot;.<br /> <br /> ==== SVideo port ====<br /> ??<br /> <br /> === Linux kernel Framebuffer driver ===<br /> <br /> With 2.6 kernels, the neofb driver seems to work pretty<br /> well. My rc.local (on fc3) does a modprobe neofb<br /> which automatically puts me in 1024x768-60 mode with<br /> 48 cols x 128 rows.<br /> <br /> I do not use neofb for X...<br /> <br /> === ThinkPads this chip may be found in ===<br /> * {{600X}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Components]]</div>
