I just thought about taking a look at the source, but the i830 source seems to be left out of the devg* Photon svn tree.
 I read in another post the drivers itself keep their own enumeration-cache, which is independant from the /etc/system/
enum/devices/graphics enumeration. This would conclude why my card does not get recognized ...
Is it possible to get the source somewhere?

Thanks a lot in advance
Sebastian

Given within the docs to use the option to define the environment variable PHGFX for enforcing which io-graphics command
 to use, it is not even possible to run in vesa mode..

I tried the following commands:

export PHGFX=io-graphics -d(i830|vesabios|vga|svga) "vid=0x8086,did=0x2a12,xres=640,yres=480,bitpp=4" -p photon  // With
 single Quotes

export PHGFX="io.... \"vid=...\""  // Double quotes with second quotes escaped

export PHGFX=io-gr... vid=0x... // Without any quotes

using always one of the options i830, vesabios, ....
This always results in: Unable to start graphics driver(s)
so io-graphics returns always 1 (or at laeast not 0)

I also read it would be possible to use the old legacy commands, which is actually not working.

Using:
export PHGFX="io-graphics -dldevg-(i830|vesabios|vga|svga).so -g640x480x16" results in an parameter error for g 6 4 0 x 
4 8 0 x 1 6 so actually the complete -g parameter.

Shouldn´t it be possible to run almost every card in vga or vesa mode? 
at least QNX4.25 had it run in vesa-mode with 1024x768@8bit (or something like this, since Pg.i830 supported it fully 
(with trapfile editing) we only run it @ 1280x1024x16 now).

pci returns:
Intel GME965/GLE960 Integrated Graphics Controller
vid=0x8086
did=0x2a12(0x2a13 for second occurance with DVI, but not used and not working)
pci index = 0

Hi Sebastian,
 
We plan to add support for this device in our 6.4.2 release later this
fall.

Regards
Mike

Subject: Intel 965GME X1300 support

Hi there,

we managed to run the Intel 965GME X1300 onchip within QNX4.25 using the
Pg.i830 (including some trapfileediting), but not in QNX 6.4.1. Even
editing does not work. The chip is produced by Intel (0x8086).

Intel 965GME X1300 - vid=0x8086, did=0x2a12(, some extra functions with
0x2a13 over DVI, corresponding to the manual).

The problem is, even editing enum-file does not get the driver startet.
io-display is started and the card been mounted to io-display, but
io-graphics cannot be run:

Unable to start graphics driver

Is there a plan to support this card inbetween the next half year?

Thanks
Sebastian
