: OVERVIEW :
============
* Support for the following SMI chips:
- SM810 LynxE
- SM820 Lynx3D
- SM710 LynxEM
- SM712 LynxEM+
- SM720 Lynx3DM
* Verified support for the following platforms:
- CEPC platform using Intel x86 CPU
- Hitachi S1 platform using SH4 CPU
* The following resolutions are supported:
- 640x480x8, 640x480x16, 640x480x24
- 800x600x8, 800x600x16, 800x600x24
- 1024x768x8, 1024x768x16, 1024x768x24
- 704x468x16 (Toshiba panel)
- 320x80x8 (Planar panel)
* Standard resolution is automatic. The panel size determines the resolution.
For the special Toshiba and Planar panels, flags in the registry dtermine the
correct panel and resolution.
* Virtual Resolution has been added. You can enable them in the registry. When
Virtual Resolution is enabled, the panel will become a window in a larger
desktop space. The mouse is used to pan the panel around in the desktop space.
* DualApp Mode has been added. You can enable it in the registry. When DualApp
mode is enable, the desktop size will be extended to two different monitors.
* Registry settings in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Display\SMI key:
- Bpp (DWORD) --> Determine the number of bits per pixel (for
standard modes). Valid values are 8, 16, and 24.
Default is 8.
- AutoPC (DWORD) --> If non-zero, use Toshiba panel and 704x468x16
resolution. Default is 0 (OFF).
- TruckPC (DWORD) --> If non-zero, use Planar panel and 320x80x8
resolution. Default is 0 (OFF).
- VirtualResX (DWORD) --> Virtual Resolution width in pixels. Default is 0
(OFF).
- VirtualResY (DWORD) --> Virtual Resolution height in lines. Default is 0
(OFF).
- PMI (String) --> Specify the location of SVPMI file. Default is NULL
(No file is used).
- DualApp (DWORD) --> If non-zero, enable the DualApp mode. Defailt is 0
(OFF).
: BUILD OPTIONS :
=================
* The build is automatic for the CEPC platform (x86 CPU). For the SHx CPUs,
there are two different build types:
- AutoPC platform (AAK) --> set AUTOPC=1 in the environment before the build.
- Hitachi S1 reference platform --> Automatic for SHx CPUs and no AutoPC
platform.
: KNOWN PROBLEMS :
==================
* Timing is hardcoded in the driver. There is no easy way to override timings.
