1. The ET4000/W32 video cards that are shipped with Acer machines are not all the same. If you encounter any display problems when
the OpenWindows environment is running, try using a different add-on board that is compatible with the Solaris operating
environment.
2. Video adapters based on the Cirrus Logic GD5424 chipset with 512-Kbyte DRAM may not perform well in 800x600x256 mode,
particularly if the selected monitor refresh rate is 60 Hz or higher.
3. Support is provided for ATI cards with ATI Mach64 chips and these RAMDACS: ATT68860, ATT20C408, ATT20C491, ATT20C498,
STG1702, and STG1703.
4. The ATI Winturbo model is equivalent to the Gateway ATI GX Mach64 PCI video card.
5. SunSoft does not guarantee that every video card with this chipset will work, but it is possible that your model will be one of a large
number that can be used successfully.
6. The ProSignia 300 systems and some models of the ProSignia Server systems with the Cirrus Logic 5424 graphics chip are supported.
Choose one of the “Cirrus Logic 5424 (512k)” entries when configuring the window system using kdmconfig.
7. Used on the Compaq QVision 1280/E Graphics Controller and in the Compaq Deskpro 590.
8. For cards using the IBM or TI RAMDACs only.
9. The Diamond Viper SE is not supported at 80 Hz in 1280x1024 resolution.
10. The ELSA Winner 1000Pro with the ATT20C498 RAMDAC is supported.
11. Both the STG1702 and the ATT21C498 RAMDAC are supported.
12. Select “Cirrus Logic 542x” when configuring the display adapter during Solaris installation.
13. 640x480, 16 colors. Any 256-Kbyte or better VGA adapter supporting standard IBM mode 0x12 graphics. For VGA with 800x600
virtual screen, select “16 color, 640x480 VGA panning @800x600 (for experts only, see docs)” when configuring the display adapter
during Solaris installation. Warning: This selection enables panning mode on a standard VGA. This video mode supports a virtual
resolution of 800x600, but is only capable of physically displaying 640x480 pixels at a time. This may be a preferred mode to use on
small screens, but the use of panning may require some training. For more information, see the documentation supplied with Solaris
2.5/2.5.1 x86 Driver Updates, available on the World Wide Web at http://access1.sun.com/driversl.
14. To support 1152x900 or 1280x1024 resolution on the Intergraph TD-1 display adapter, you must select an interlaced monitor type
when configuring the Solaris window system. Choose “Multifrequency 56kHz (up to 1280x1024 interlaced)” as the monitor type. See
the documentation supplied with Driver Updates for more information.
15. The Intergraph G90 is synonymous with the Diamond Viper video card.
