Sorry if you've seen this before but I don't think it=20
Made it to this list previously.


Hi ,

I have the nVidia video card Quadro NVS 285.

I need to know if Xfree86 (4.5) which comes with NetBSD3.1
Supports this?

I CANNOT get the dual head capacity to work. Despite extensive
Work in XF86Config and Xinerama. I think this config file is=20
Too simple to be wrong.=20

I suspect support for the card is not there.


But I get confusing messages in the XFree86.0.log:
=20
(--) PCI:*(1:0:0) nVidia Corporation unknown chipset (0x0165) rev 161,
Mem @ 0xf6000000/24, 0xf8000000/26, 0xf7000000/24

=20
But then also:
=20
(**) Chipset override: Quadro NVS 285
(**) Chipset Quadro NVS 285 found

=20
I also get this but don't know how important it is:
=20
(WW) NV: More than one matching Device section for instances

=20
dmesg has:
=20
vga1 at pci1 dev 0 function 0: NVIDIA product 0x0165 (rev. 0xa1)
vga1: WARNING: ignoring 64-bit BAR @ 0x14
vga1: WARNING: ignoring 64-bit BAR @ 0x1c


If you don't know about support , does anyone know who/where I could
Contact for this.

Thanks,
Paul.
