[Configure viafb via /proc]
|
||||
---------------------------
|
||||
The following files exist in /proc/viafb
|
||||
|
||||
supported_output_devices
|
||||
|
||||
This read-only file contains a full ',' seperated list containing all
|
||||
output devices that could be available on your platform. It is likely
|
||||
that not all of those have a connector on your hardware but it should
|
||||
provide a good starting point to figure out which of those names match
|
||||
a real connector.
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
# cat /proc/viafb/supported_output_devices
|
||||
|
||||
iga1/output_devices
|
||||
iga2/output_devices
|
||||
|
||||
These two files are readable and writable. iga1 and iga2 are the two
|
||||
independent units that produce the screen image. Those images can be
|
||||
forwarded to one or more output devices. Reading those files is a way
|
||||
to query which output devices are currently used by an iga.
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
# cat /proc/viafb/iga1/output_devices
|
||||
If there are no output devices printed the output of this iga is lost.
|
||||
This can happen for example if only one (the other) iga is used.
|
||||
Writing to these files allows adjusting the output devices during
|
||||
runtime. One can add new devices, remove existing ones or switch
|
||||
between igas. Essentially you can write a ',' seperated list of device
|
||||
names (or a single one) in the same format as the output to those
|
||||
files. You can add a '+' or '-' as a prefix allowing simple addition
|
||||
and removal of devices. So a prefix '+' adds the devices from your list
|
||||
to the already existing ones, '-' removes the listed devices from the
|
||||
existing ones and if no prefix is given it replaces all existing ones
|
||||
with the listed ones. If you remove devices they are expected to turn
|
||||
off. If you add devices that are already part of the other iga they are
|
||||
removed there and added to the new one.
|
||||
Examples:
|
||||
Add CRT as output device to iga1
|
||||
# echo +CRT > /proc/viafb/iga1/output_devices
|
||||
|
||||
Remove (turn off) DVP1 and LVDS1 as output devices of iga2
|
||||
# echo -DVP1,LVDS1 > /proc/viafb/iga2/output_devices
|
||||
|
||||
Replace all iga1 output devices by CRT
|
||||
# echo CRT > /proc/viafb/iga1/output_devices

||||
