xf86-video-nsc -- NSC Geode GX1 and GX2 graphics driver for X.Org
=================================================================
README last updated: 2011-03-13
GIT repository:
git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/driver/xf86-video-nsc
Gitweb browser:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-nsc
Project homepage:
http://www.x.org/wiki/GeodeDriver
### IMPORTANT NOTICE ###
Please note that this driver is seriously deprecated and in fact fails
to build on recent X.org releases, due to a missing assyntax.h that was
removed by commit 593144dddd977f53bcd1a115f9544eeece46df4c in X server.
Support for Cyrix and NSC Geodes shall be merged into xf86-video-geode,
after which xf86-video-cyrix and xf86-video-nsc will be retired. Please
contact the X.org Geode mailing list (see subscription instructions on
the project homepage) if you can contribute towards reaching this goal.
Until then, the current situation for Geode coverage is as follow:
xf86-video-geode
* AMD Geode LX (a.k.a. GX3) PCI ID 0x1022:0x2081
* AMD Geode GX (a.k.a. GX2) PCI ID 0x100B:0x0030
xf86-video-nsc
* NSC Geode GX (a.k.a. GX2) PCI ID 0x100B:0x0030
* NSC Geode SC (a.k.a. GX1) PCI ID 0x100B:0x0504
xf86-video-cyrix
* Cyrix Geode (a.k.a. GX1) PCI ID 0x1078:0x0104
Please note that both NSC and GEODE support GX2. This is indeed correct.
However, only GEODE has up-to-date code, while NSC is deprecated.
