Not sure about ATI technology, but nVidia Optimus is CHIP w/o any video output, just PCI interface. It's writing resulting image into host memory. Then host video output controller can be set to draw that frame to any of outputs (VGA/HDMI/Composite/etc). If host has own 2D/3D unit it can draw to separate memory, but can be set to merge both output (like PIP in TV) Will try to do some ASCII art for that :) | Optimus | | i915 2D/3D | +----+----+ +------+------+ | | +--PCI--> (PCI Bridge)---+ V | +-------------+ +---------+ | | | +--->| | | | FB1 +=+-|--->| VGA Out | | +-------------+ | | +---------+ | | | | | | +-------------+ | | +----------+ | | |+-|--->| | +------>| FB2 +===+--->| HDMI Out | +-------------+ +----------+ | Host RAM | +-------------+ huh, looks cute :) So, any 2D or 3D unit can draw to any mem region (framebuffer), and any of output controllers can read from any mem region. > > >> Sorry if its a dumb question... >> >> >> I dont mind using the intel tough, and investigate If I can pass the ATI >> card to a windows guest. >> >> Thanks >> >> >> "Jean-Sébastien Pédron" wrote: >>> On 27.01.2014 02:06, Miguel Clara wrote: >>>> Its an HP Pavillion and digging more into it its indeed on of this >>>> "Hybrid Graphichs" latops, so pretty sure it shares the same outputs, >>>> at least for the LCD, (not sure about VGA and HDMI but I would say >>> its >>>> also the same). >>> This kind of setup isn't supported on FreeBSD yet, unfortunately, and >>> it's not a priority right now :-/ >>> >>>> But when I tried starx (without the intel dirver and just the ATI >>> card >>>> - see xorg.conf attached files) I got an erro - segmentation fault, >>>> see Xorgradeonkmserro.log >>> I think there's no need to chase that segfault yet, as long as we don't >>> support Optimus/PowerXpress. >>> >>> Is the Intel video card working correctly for you? >>> >>>> Any other usefull info, as long as I can grab it, I'll be glad to >>>> attach, hoping this helps add +1 card to the supported ones! >>> Thanks for your offer :) Your card is probably supported, beside this >>> PowerXpress thing.
