[Patch] Wyse 700 graphics support

Post by JohnElliott »

The Wyse 700 video card has a fixed-resolution 1280x800 display, with a 16x16 character bitmap.

I've tested this against real hardware with a handrolled test utility and with GEM.

It doesn't seem to be too happy switching out of 1280x800 mode back to text mode. Is this a known issue?

OK, here's a path to vid_wy700.c that seems to improve matters for me.

Yep, that seems to fix it. Committed to rev 601.

Can it be the "vid_wy700.c" is missing?
