I need information about the on-board vga adapater...ie
it's physical adress both the adress of the controller chip
itself and the location of display video ram...

I have tried various possible addresses already
including what Microsoft Diags report (standard
vga space ie port 3d0, video a0000) and
standard 'pica' addresses ( I saw three tlb's similar
to acer pica reported via arcdiags program).
The 'pica' entries may be to support an
'optional' vxl adapter similar to Magnum.

So the big question where is it at ?

The only techinal info I have came with Nec RiscServer
itself , very skimpy, basically says 'yep' you
got a vga controller (cirrus) or you can
move a jumper and install a 'high graphics performance vxl card'
in a special designated 'display solot'....

I need a little than this to go on!
