  [1m1.  Supported hardware[0m


  This driver supports a single chipset `mediagx' that should work on
  the following Cyrix CPUs with integrated graphics:


  +o  MediaGX

  +o  MediaGXi

  +o  MediaGXm


  [1m2.  Features[0m


  +o  Rather sparse (color depth hardcoded to 8)


  [1m3.  xorg.conf Option[0m


     [1mOption[0m
        disable the hardware cursor. (Code not verified yet!)

     [1mOption[0m
        completely disables acceleration. Usually not recommended.


  [1m4.  Bugs and Limitations[0m


  +o  As a first cut at the new design, known problems are everywhere.
     The console font is corrupted upon exit.  The server seems stable
     if the virtual desktop and resolution size match.  I found 1024x768
     usable and that's why I released this version.  Geeks can have fun
     with this but NEWBIES should use the 3.3.3.1 release instead!

  +o  On some older chipsets, the driver may trigger an illegal
     instruction just after probing for the ``scratchpad size''.  If
     this is the case, email to  <hecker@cat.dfrc.nasa.gov> with the
     output of

     Xorg -probeonly -verbose


  and this will be fixed.
