The Unichrome Project provides open source X-Windows support for the
VIA/S3G
Unichrome graphics controller. These controllers are found in the VIA
Technologies CLE266, KM400/KN400, K8M800 and PM800/CN400 northbridges.
My particular interest in the Via M10000 platform.
This web page provides some information and links to some RPM packages
that I have created, for my own use, to provide Unichrome drivers for
the Fedora Linux distribution. The Unichrome drivers and the Kernel
DRM are in a state of heavy
development at the moment. This can make it difficult for new users to
get a Fedora system up and running with the Unichrome driver set. The
RPM's below are "quick and dirty" RPM's. They just provide the
necessary Unichrome bits on top of an existing Fedora installation.
This make them quite small to download and install.
These RPM's proved a basic snapshot of the Unichrome and DRM drivers.
As stated earlier they are under heavy development and so you may need
to compile and install CVS versions to fix bugs on your system. They
are provided on a "use at your own risk" basis. The Unichrome and DRI
developers are working hard to get this code into the standard Linux
releases, so these RPM's will become un-necessary for Fedora.
