Hi everyone! My name is Vladimir Mitrovic, and I'm studying electrical engineering here in Belgrade, Serbia. I have a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo 2035 laptop, which has a VIA Unichrome Pro gfx card (VT3344). If I got it right, this driver doesn't yet support this card, so I thought maybe I can help you guys. Running this baby on vesa framebuffer just doesn't do the trick for me :) So, here's the deal. I know quite a bit of C and C++ (some 8 or 9 years experience), I have a very good grasp of OS (Linux) concepts, some basic low level/module programming skills, but none when it comes to gfx. So what I thought is that I can start reading the documentation concerning X development, graphic card and video concepts, and so on. Hopefully by the middle of July, I will have enough free time to pop out some code... until then, I will read the docs. How does that sound to you? If all your programming space is already occupied, I will gladly offer testing/debugging via IRC or e-mail, but I think you mentioned in the FAQ that that kind of communication doesn't yield much results :) That's about it... cheers! ;) V. |
