[Linux-fbdev-devel] Dual display on framebuffer with i810e and ET6000

[Herman T. <HEt...@cs...>]

Hi everyone!

Thanks for every bit of help getting my framebuffer on i810e going. Now, =
normally I use my system with two displays. The i810e is my primary vga =
display (on 17" monitor) and my secondary display is a Tseng Labs ET6000 =
(on a 14" monitor).

Normally I use X to use both displays which work well, but I also like to =
most of the time work at the command line. Especially when I do a lot of =
compiling (and don't want X to use my memory, we all know how gcc eats =
memory!)

Now, how can I setup the ET6000 to work alongside the i810e framebuffer. =
Firstly, is it possible? I know the ET6000 works with the VESA vga driver.
Can somebody point me to a document, or give advise on setting this up. Or =
do I need a specialised driver for the ET6000? If so, I would like to try =
to write one. But I need some help.

Thanks for all the support!
Herman
