The Cyrix MediaGX series, as well as a few other cpu'ss | use a unified memory system, where video ram is pulled from system ram. I found it interesting that the Compaq laptop that used the MediaGX used a different chipset for video. I think they used a NeoMagic. I wonder why they did that since you would think it would be extra cost since the MediaGX can drive an LCD. Caveat, atleast this was true for the laptop I looked at. This stuff seems to change every month. Doug A. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
