It is a TMS34010 based monochrome video adapter capable of doing a 1664x1200 resolution. I also have a monitor that can display this resolution. So the card is a tiga (because of the 34010). The communication with the 34010 goes via what is called a DGIS interface, which stands for Direct Graphics Interface Standard. (I never heart of this standard though.) My question: is there any way I can use the board for Xwindows. I want to run it on a 386bsd box. I know there is no XFree support for the 34010 but did anyone work on extending XFree with direct 34010 support, or using the DGIS interface? (btw: the card has 512k of system memory) If anyone has information on this DGIS standard, or knows where to find such information, I'd be interested too. -Guido
