Release Notes for XFree86[tm] 3.3.3.1

ROM Enable/Disable Jumper
In some system configurations, the BIOS ROM address of the GUP may conflict with other system BIOS ROMs. To prevent an error message, set the jumper to ROM Disable which will disable the ROM BIOS until configuration is complete. 

Compatability/Performance Jumper
This is usually in the performance setting. Some MCA systems may have timing problems when the MCA card runs at maximum speed, showing a corrupted VGA screen. Setting the jumper to Compatibility should correct this problem. 

IRQ Jumper
The manual cheerfully sez: The IRQ jumper is not used, do not enable it. This jumper should be left open. 

VGA Disable Jumper
   I have no experience with trying to run a dual-monitor configuration. But read on and see what it does...  To use the GUP with another VGA controller, you must first disable the VGA portion of the GUP. Set the VGA Enable/Disabled jumper to the Disabled position. 
   Whether operating as VGA Enabled or VGA Disabled, a Base Video must be present (either on the motherboard (8590/9590) or on an addin card) for system operation. The mach32 card operates as an auxiliary video card only. 

FIRST and MOST IMPORTANT - get the @8089.ADF from M32UTL.ZIP or from Peter's site (above) extract all files to a floppy.
Run setup, copy an options disk. Exit setup. Power down. 
   Install the GUP in #7 (85/95) or #3 (90). Put a terminator plug on the base video card. Hook up the monitor to the GUP. Do NOT install jumpers. NO JUMPERS.
   Power up. When autoconfig pops up, don't. set configuration>change
configuration. XGA-2 will be set to no resources (at this time). The GUP
MUST show a line for a ROM address range. If it doesn't, you have the
old adf (and you didn't believe me about extracting that m32utl file
either).
   F10, save config. F3 to exit. Exit setup, boot successfully, then run
INSTALL.EXE from the floppy (DOS program). Set GUP to VGA. Save
settings. Exit install. Reboot.
   NOW listen up! Set the XGA-2 ROM Address Range to C6000-C7000. It will show the asterix for a conflict.... No S.H.I.T., that's what we want.
hit F10, a little warning pops up, telling you that an adapter may be
disabled hit enter.
   At this point the XGA-2 adapter is no longer providing base video... The king is dead! Long live the king!
   Boot to confirm that you have video. You should.
   Shut down. Remove BVE card. Power up, run setup. Do NOT autoconfig
(though it might not diddle anything, why chance it?).
   Set configuration>change configuration. F10 to save (all you are doing
is confirming the BVE card is gone). Exit setup. 

You now should have a lone GUP.

Single Card Settings
   Run INSTALL. Under Power Up menu- 
Monitor Type: VGA 60Hz 640x480 
Power Up Video Mode: VGA (CV80) 
Memory Aperture Size: Disabled 
VGA Memory Size: Shared 

Single GUP Under W95
   It's almost (ALMOST) fully supported under Windowze95. Clear every other adapter out of the C000-CFFF block. The only range that isn't right is the I/O range of 2E0-2E7. The ATI uses- 
[VGA.LogConfig] 
ConfigPriority=HARDWIRED 
IOConfig=3B0-3BB 
IOConfig=3C0-3DF 

:*** The GUP uses IO of 2E0-2E7. Non-configurable. How can I set the IO ranges used by the GUP? 

Addresses used under W95
   I went through Device Mangler. The GUP uses EACH block from 03B0-03DF. This takes in the IBM Parallel 1, which is 3BC-3BF. 

What is this Terminator Plug?
Well, it goes on the Base video card or the Base Video port for on-board video. Brad Parker sent me some info HERE

Some personal experiences with my GUP-
The GUP goes in Slot 7 of your 8595/9595. Your Base Video card (use an IBM SVGA card, don't waste a XGA-2 on this) goes in Slot 5.  All jumpers are open. 

The Main Selection Menu has six sub-menus.

Custom Monitor Configuration
In the Install program, choose Set Power-up Configuration, then Monitor Type, then Custom. 
Your choices are: (this will be painful, but it's for your own good) 

640x480 Mode	800x600 Mode	1024x768 Mode	1280x1024 Mode
	56Hz
60Hz	60Hz	60Hz	60Hz
		66Hz

72Hz (40/32MHz)	72Hz	72Hz
			74Hz
	76Hz	76Hz
		87Hz (I)	87Hz (i)
	89Hz (i)
	95Hz (i)		95Hz (i)

Power-Up Video Mode-
   The GUP can be configured to power up in VGA, EGA, CGA, MDA 720x348 or MDA 640x400 mode. In most cases, you will want the card to power up in VGA Mode (default setting) 

Memory Aperture
   The drivers included with this card automatically sense if the memory aperture is enabled or disabled, and reconfigure accordingly. The memory aperture is a feature which maps the graphics card memory to the main system memory to improve graphics performance in high color modes. You will not notice any appreciable difference in functionality or performance in 256 color modes. 
   The location of the memory aperture is determined by the system type and amount of system memory installed. The memory aperture is mapped above the system memory area. The aperture location and size are determined by the INSTALL program when you enable memory aperture. 

VGA Memory Size
If you intend to mainly use Windows applications and the mach32 Windows driver, leave the VGA memory size at the default. Memory on your card is shared between the mach32 VGA and accelerator subsystems. You can set VGA memory size to Shared, 256K, 512K, or 1MB. The size of the VGA memory only affects the resolution/color combinations supported when using SVGA or 8514/A drivers. (Mine is set as Shared) 

• Shared- This selection provides the best results, allowing any VGA or 8514/A driver to use the maximum memory available. This setting is suitable for most applications except when these need to preserve the contents of VGA memory (for example, DOS boxes in Windows) when used with an 8514/A drivers or for special programming considerations.
• 256K/512K/1.0MB- Sets the amount of memory dedicated for the VGA controller. This selection affects the resolution/color combinations that are supported when used with either SVGA or 8514/A drivers.

mach32 only gets 640@256 or 800@16 in WIN95 / 98
When a mach32 product is installed in Windows 95 or Windows 98, only the following modes are available: 
    640 x 480 at 16 colors or 256 colors 
    800 x 600 at 16 colors only 
This problem occurs because the mach32 board is configured for "factory defaults". 
   The Microsoft-supplied driver for the mach32 reads information regarding mode support directly from the card. If it reads a "factory default" configuration, only the modes shown above are made available. 
   The mach32 product must be configured to match the capabilities of the MONITOR attached, before WIN95 will allow full access to resolution 
and color depth combinations.. 
   This is accomplished using the DOS-based INSTALL program which comes with the mach32 product (mach32 disk #1). The INSTALL program can also be downloaded from the ATI website or BBS. Look for M32UTL.ZIP. 

Instructions: 
1. Boot to a DOS command prompt. 
2. Run INSTALL. 
3. Select SET POWER-UP CONFIGURATION. 
4. Change the monitor type to one which matches the monitor attached, or use the CUSTOM option to setup each resolution supported by the 
monitor attached. 
5. Save the new configuration, exit the INSTALL program and POWER OFF the machine. 
6. POWER ON, load WIN95, and check the Display Properties panel. Additional resolution and color depth options should now be available. 

GUP under Linux
Brad Parker replies 
Heroic isn't the work I'd use for this procedure... 

I've never been able to get the ATi GUP to run using the Mach32 xserver, however here is the why and how of getting it to display using the generic SVGA xserver. 

   Why: The ATi GUP is a Vesa compliant video card. It also has a firmware configuration utility available. I drive a fixed frequency IBM 6091-19 with mine. As the monitor only works at three specific frequencies, I used the DOS firmware configuration utility to program in my specific needs to the onboard eprom on the GUP. 

How: There are two ways to do this. 
   First there is the hard way which uses a text file, similar to the XF86Config file, which is read by a compiler like program that transfers the info to the eprom on the ATi card. It's about as fun as figuring out dot clocks. At one time Vesa member companies were supposed to supply the owners of their monitors with this file. A few exist out there, mostly for the NEC multisyncs, which really don't need them. Go figure... 
   And there is the Easy way, which is an interactive adjustment program. supplied with the ATi driver diskettes, available on the ATi web site. This DOS program works a lot like the size and sync adjustments on a multisync monitor. It reminds me of the AppleVision software for the Mac. As I knew from the IBM specs what the 6091-19 needed, I just picked the closest preset, which happened to be the Vesa 1280 x 1024 @ 60 Hz mode. This is known as Vesa mode 107h (See Peter Wendt's excellent page on the XGA-2 card for a list of other Vesa modes). I then entered the custom mode. Next I displayed the test pattern with the ATi setup program and used the arrow keys and what not to get the size, centering, sync polarity etc.. correct for my monitor. Then I saved those settings, which get stored on the GUP's eprom chip under, you guessed it, Vesa 
Mode 107h (I gave it a user friendly name, but 107h is where it really is). 
   When setting up your xserver for Linux, choose the generic SVGA server. It's smart enough to figure out that the ATi GUP is a Vesa compliant card. You edit the XF86Config file leaving all the entries for the display settings that correspond to the ones you have programmed in the ATi card using the above procedure. Don't worry about the dotclocks and such, just use the basic resolutions, color depth and vertical refresh rates that are closest to your monitors modes. Delete all of the others that aren't supported by your monitor or the GUP. 
   Now when you start the xserver, it is simply going to send a Vesa mode change to your Vesa compliant ATi GUP card. The card will switch to your custom mode that corresponds to the Vesa mode, like 107h in my particular case. I'm fairly certain that it just ignores the dot clock settings and all. 
   Now when you toggle through the various modes while running X, the generic SVGA xserver just sends out various Vesa mode changes. See the SVGA howto for details on which modes correspond to which resolutions. I've also used the ATi GUP in this manner with a Compaq SVGA and IBM 9524 (14P) and 9525 (15P) monitors. It was significantly easier with the 
multisyncing 14P and 15P than with the fixed frequency 6091-19. Basically with the multisyncs I just used whatever was the default Vesa modes and adjusted the monitors to work with that. 

Hope this sheds some light on the subject. 

From Brad Parker
/* You may have an ATI with the hardware timing error. To check this: 
Use the ATi DOS utilities, type "test /i" and note the ASIC revision.
   If it's 0, then ATI's drivers won't work very well. Numbers above 6 are
the fixed card numbers.  Between 1 and 6 are may or may not work. */
   I have no problems with my GUP and NT 4 sp4. My ASIC revision is 7 IIRC

(Ed. OR  Control Panel>Display>Display Properties>Display Type, look in the lower left hand at Adapter Information, Chip Type, and it will say Mach32 rev. x).

Address of BIOS ROM
   The base address of the BIOS ROM cannot be changed. However, some systems have a problem allocating C0000h-C1FFFh during configuration.  For these systems, a second identical choice is provided.
  This overcomes the problem by making it appear that a choice is available to the configuration program.  The ROM JUMPER is used to enable the ROM prior to configuration.  Setting the ROM JUMPER to the DISABLED position disables the ROM, allowing the adapter to co-exist with an unconfigured XGA adapter.  It is important that during configuration, all other adapters be moved away from address C0000h-C7FFFh."

A duplicate choice is required to fix configuration problem on model 76
  <"C0000h-C7FFFh">, C0000h-C7FFFh
