[Linux-fbdev-devel] TVIA CyberPro 5005 problem

[L.Y.Mesentsev <L.M...@tv...>]

Hi All,

Recently I've purchased a  settopbox from AllWell  ( 
http://www.gctglobal.com/Products/Set_Top_Box/Metallic6086N2/metallic6086n2.html 
)
equipped with  TVIA CyberPro 5005 chipset.  In order to use it with 
DirectFB + VDR under Linux I'm looking for framebuffer driver for it. 
 The only driver I've found is cyber2000fb available with a current 
kernels and it claims to support  ex-IGS (now TVIA) CyberPro 5000 
chipsets, that should be compatible with 5005 chipsets ( I have a full 
complete documentation on my chipset and it seems to be true ). The 
problem is that after cyber2000fb.o is correctly loaded into the kernel 
( it properly recognizes 500X chipset, video memory amount and don't log 
warnings either errors ) - I see a white square on the screen ( ~ 
640x480 on 720x576 )  traced with weird green diagonal lines. When I try 
to launch any example from DirectFB ( 640x480x16 60Hz for instance )  - 
the screen becomes flicking and  BW, but I can see the graphic output ( 
images & animation ).
Unfortunately I have not enough skill to solve this problem myself, but 
I have a full set of documentation for 500X chipset and  big desire to 
learn.

Please, help me to make this  chipset work  -  any help will be 
appreciated.
