QNX 4.25 and Intel Q965/Q963 Video  
I am having an issue with this onboard video card and running photon.  I have downloaded the newest versions of both 
crttrap.list and Pg.i830.  I also followed the directions from wiki3719 on installing graphics drivers.  
I also used the commands "crttrap clear" and "crttrap trap" after updating crttrap.list and Pg.i830.  When I launch 
photon the screen goes black and the monitor then goes to sleep.  This occurs with both an LCD and CRT monitor. I can 
kill photon with CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+BACKSPACE and bring it back to the command line.   I've included files for show_pci -vv,
 sin ar, sin ver and sin ir as well as the /trap/crt file.  I added the first line to the /trap/crt file or otherwise 
the system would freeze and require a restart.  Is there something I am missing from the steps?  Thank you.

Hi Brad,

Does this problem occurs in the QNX 6.5.0 with devg-i830 driver?

Also please try to run the Photon with other video modes and the Pg.flat driver.

Andrey.

Well I was able to get it working by changing to a lower resolution and colour quality.  The weird thing is that I was 
able to change it back to the 1280x1024 and 32 bit and it worked.  Thanks for the help.

Well looks like I spoke too soon.  It turns out that in the crt.64 file if I enable the flatdc32 driver and then launch 
Photon nothing launches.  The monitor goes black but doesn't go to sleep. If I then slay Photon and comment out the 
flatdc32 driver and use the Pg.i830 and Photon launches no problem.  
I am not able to use QNX 6.5.0 with devg-i830 driver, I only have QNX 4.25.  I've attached the newer crt.64 file to show
 what I am using.

Hi Brad,

I think that the Pg.i830 is preferred driver. So if it works you should use 
it.

The QNX4 Pg.i830 is a port of QNX6 devg-i830.so. So Andrey just asked you to 
test how QNX6 is working on your HW. QNX6 evaluation is freely available at 
www.qnx.com .
