NAME
       trident - Trident video driver

SYNOPSIS
       Section "Device"
	 Identifier "devname"
	 Driver "trident"
	 ...
       EndSection

DESCRIPTION
       trident	is  an	Xorg  driver  for  Trident video cards.	 The driver is
       accelerated, and provides support for the following framebuffer depths:
       1,  4, 8, 15, 16, and 24. Multi-head configurations are supported.  The
       XvImage extension is supported on TGUI96xx and greater cards.

SUPPORTED HARDWARE
       The trident driver supports PCI,AGP and ISA video cards	based  on  the
       following Trident chips:

       Blade	   Blade3D,  CyberBlade	 series	 i1, i7 (DSTN), i1, i1 (DSTN),
		   Ai1,	   Ai1	  (DSTN),     CyberBlade/e4,	 CyberBladeXP,
		   CyberBladeAi1/XP, BladeXP

       Image	   3DImage975,	3DImage985,  Cyber9520,	 Cyber9525, Cyber9397,
		   Cyber9397DVD

       ProVidia	   9682, 9685, Cyber9382, Cyber9385, Cyber9388

       TGUI	   9440AGi, 9660, 9680

       ISA/VLBus   8900C, 8900D, 9000, 9200CXr,	 Cyber9320,  9400CXi,  9440AGi
		   These  cards	 have been ported but need further testing and
		   may not work.

CONFIGURATION DETAILS
       Please refer to xorg.conf(5) for general configuration  details.	  This
       section only covers configuration details specific to this driver.

       The following driver Options are supported:

       Option "SWCursor" "boolean"
	      Enable or disable the SW cursor.	Default: off.

       Option "NoAccel" "boolean"
	      Disable	or  enable  acceleration.   Default:  acceleration  is
	      enabled.

       Option "PciRetry" "boolean"
	      Enable or disable PCI retries.  Default: off.

       Option "CyberShadow" "boolean"
	      For Cyber chipsets only, turn off shadow registers. If you  only
	      see a partial display - this may be the option for you. Default:
	      on.

       Option "CyberStretch" "boolean"
	      For Cyber chipsets only, turn on stretching. When the resolution
	      is  lower	 than  the  LCD's screen, this option will stretch the
	      graphics mode to fill the entire LCD. Default: off.

       Option "ShadowFB" "boolean"
	      Enable or disable use of the shadow framebuffer layer.  Default:
	      off.

       Option "VideoKey" "integer"
	      This sets the default pixel value for the YUV video overlay key.
	      Default: undefined.

       Option "TVChipset" "string"
	      This  sets  the  TV  chipset.  Options  are  CH7005  or  VT1621.
	      Default: off.

       Option "TVSignal" "integer"
	      This  sets  the  TV  signalling. Options are 0 for NTSC or 1 for
	      PAL.  Default: undefined.

       Option "NoPciBurst" "boolean"
	      Turn off	PCI  burst  mode,  PCI	Bursting  is  on  by  default.
	      Default: off.

       Option "XvHsync" "integer"
	      Override the default Horizontal-sync value for the Xv extension.
	      This is used to center the Xv image on the screen.   By  default
	      the values are assigned based on the video card.	Default: 0.

       Option "XvVsync" "integer"
	      Override	the  default Vertical-sync value for the Xv extension.
	      This is used to center the Xv image on the screen.   By  default
	      the values are assigned based on the video card.	Default: 0.

       Option "XvBskew" "integer"
	      Override	the  default  Bottom  skew value for the Xv extension.
	      This is used to extend the Xv image on the screen at the bottom.
	      By  default  the	values	are  assigned based on the video card.
	      Default: 0.

       Option "XvRskew" "integer"
	      Override the default Right skew  value  for  the	Xv  extension.
	      This  is used to extend the Xv image on the screen at the right.
	      By default the values are assigned  based	 on  the  video	 card.
	      Default: 0.

       Option "Display" "string"
	      Override	the  display.	Possible  values  are "CRT", "LCD" and
	      "Dual".  Please note that this option  is	 only  experimentally.
	      Default: Use display active when X started.

       Option "Display1400" "boolean"
	      Inform   driver	to  expect  1400x1050  display	instead	 of  a
	      1280x1024.  Default: off.

       Option "GammaBrightness" "string"
	      Set display gamma value  and  brightness.	 "string"  is  "gamma,
	      brightness",  where gamma is a floating point value greater than
	      0 and less or equal  to  10.  brightness	is  an	integer	 value
	      greater  or  equal  to  0 and less than 128.  Default: gamma and
	      brightness control is turned off.	 Note: This is	not  supported
	      on all chipsets.	Option "AccelMethod" "string" Choose accelera‐
	      tion architecture, either "XAA" or "EXA".	 XAA is the  old  (but
	      stable) XFree86 based acceleration architecture.	EXA is a newer
	      and simpler acceleration architecture designed to better	accel‐
	      erate the X Render extension.  Default: "XAA".
