[comp.unix.aix] X11 with EGA..

shamash@cs.columbia.edu (Ari Shamash) (03/28/90)

Do X11 drivers for EGA displays on a PS/II running AIX 1.1 exist?  If
so, where can I get them?  I heard that EGA drivers came with the
X11R3 release from MIT, but my copy of the source tree was deleted a
couple of months ago.

Thanks in advance,
Ari

You can't run an EGA off of a PS/2 running AIX PS/2 1.1, since there are
no microchannel EGA boards.  The EGA driver which came with X11R3 was
for the RT.  X11R4 has a VGA driver.
