[comp.windows.x] Strange problems with VGA Server

news@brian386.uucp (News Administrator) (04/10/90)

I am having a strange problem with a server I am trying to compile under
Interactive 386/ix v2.0.2.  Simply stated, the VGA driver from an IBM/rt
is not working "properly".  I have fixed it so that I allocate the screen,
set it up for 640x480, and enable IN/OUT to/from the ports.  It seems to
be okay, but I don't get any stippling on the screen, and the cursor as
displayed on the screen, seems to skip a couple of lines in between the
lines which are displayed properly, also I only get the lower left corner
of the cursor.

Question, has anyone built a VGA server for AIX/BSD on an IBM/rt, and
gotten it to work properly from the X11R4 Sources??  If so, were any
changes required to make it work??  I don't feel like re-writing the
entire VGA graphics library, so any help would be appreciated.
