11.6. What hardware is supported?

Most video cards assume they will be the only one in the system and are permanently set with the addressing

of the primary display adapter. There are a few exceptions.

Matrox cards: This includes Matrox Millennium, Matrox Millennium II, Matrox Mystique, Matrox

Mystique 220, Matrox Productiva G100, Matrox Mystique G200, Matrox Millennium G200 and

Matrox Marvel G200 video cards

•

MDA: This includes monochrome Hercules graphics adapters among others. This for text only second

head support.

•

Note: it's only the second adapter that has to be one of the above.

11.7. Commercial support

This mini-HOWTO in primarily concerned with free software. However, there are commercial X servers with

multi-head support. These include Metro Link's (www.metrolink.com) Metro-X and Xi Graphics'

(www.xig.com) Accelerated-X.

11.8. Getting all the stuff

You'll need the following patches and programs:

fbset program - try http://www.cs.kuleuven.ac.be/~geert/bin/ (note: RedHat 6.0 already has this

program included)

•

fbaddon Matrix dual head patches for Linux kernel - try

ftp://platan.vc.cvut.cz/pub/linux/matrox-latest/

•

con2fb program - try ftp://platan.vc.cvut.cz/pub/linux/matrox-latest/•

The X11 frame buffer server XF86_FBDev. This is a standard part of XFree86 3.3.1.•

11.9. Getting Started

The first thing you'll need to do is to patch a copy of the Linux source with the "fbaddon" patch. Then you

need to configure the kernel and turn on frame buffer support. If you have Matrox cards turn on Matrox

unified accelerated driver support as well as the particular type of card you have. Don't turn on VESA frame

buffer support. It can cause a conflict. Do turn on multi-head support (obviously). Build the kernel and reboot.
