Hi, I really don't know where to post this message, so if there is a better place please let me know. I want to write a driver for my video card, not for X, for my own home grown app :-) I've just read Chap 5 of the Magic Garden Explained (SysVR4 Internals) so I have some idea whats expected when writing a device driver. I've also read the technical programming doco for my video card. The big hole in my plan is PCI. I don't know how to talk to my video card on the PCI bus :-( So I guess my questions are: Should I try and find out more about basic driver programming, specifically freeBSD, and if so where? Where can I find out about programming PCI devices? Thanks for any help, Anthony To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
