.TH vga_setchipset 3 "27 July 1997" "Svgalib (>= 1.2.11)" "Svgalib User Manual"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
vga_setchipset \- force chipset
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
.B "#include <vga.h>"
|
|
|
|
.BI "void vga_setchipset(int " chipset );
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
Force detection of a chipset (when chipset detection fails).
|
|
.B vga_setchipset(VGA)
|
|
can be useful if the chipset specific
|
|
stuff or the SVGA detection stuff gives problems.
|
|
|
|
However, at first the automatic detection should work well, and if not a specific
|
|
chipset can be forced from
|
|
.IR /etc/vga/libvga.config .
|
|
|
|
Because of that,
|
|
.BI "void vga_setchipset(int " chipset )
|
|
should probably never be used by applications. If used nevertheless, it should be called
|
|
directly before
|
|
.BR vga_init (3).
|
|
|
|
As of now the following values are defined for
|
|
.IR chipset:
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B UNDEFINED
|
|
This is the default and specifies autodetection.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B VGA
|
|
