Solaris 8 (Intel Platform Edition) 10/00 Hardware Compatibility List

Video Display Devices


Note -

Video support is limited to support for computer monitors. Other features, such as TV output, that come with some video devices are not supported.



Note -

"--" in the Bus column indicates a video device that is used on video cards and motherboards.



Note -

The information in the Video Chip column does not guarantee that video cards made by another manufacturer using the same video device will work. Only the specific models listed by Vendor, Model, Bus, and Video Chip have been tested.

VGA [640x480, 16 colors. Any 256-Kbyte or better VGA adapter supporting standard IBM mode 0x12 graphics. For VGA with 800x600 virtual screen, select "16 color, 640x480 VGA panning @800x600 (for experts only, see docs)" when configuring the display adapter during Solaris installation. Warning: This selection enables panning mode on a standard VGA. This video mode supports a virtual resolution of 800x600, but is only capable of physically displaying 640x480 pixels at a time. This might be a preferred mode to use on small screens, but the use of panning might require some training.]
