28c095153dSmiod.Sh NAME
29c095153dSmiod.Nm tvtwo
30c095153dSmiod.Nd accelerated 24-bit color frame buffer
31c095153dSmiod.Sh SYNOPSIS
32c095153dSmiod.Cd "tvtwo* at sbus?"
33c095153dSmiod.Cd "wsdisplay* at tvtwo?"
34c095153dSmiod.Sh DESCRIPTION
350d7f939eSmiodThe Parallax XVideo and PowerVideo frame buffers, also known as
360d7f939eSmiod.Sq tvtwo ,
370d7f939eSmiodare memory based color frame buffers, with graphics acceleration
38c095153dSmiodand overlay capabilities, and hardware MPEG decoding.
39c095153dSmiod.Pp
40c095153dSmiodThe
41c095153dSmiod.Nm
42c095153dSmioddriver interfaces the frame buffer to the
43c095153dSmiod.Xr wscons 4
44c095153dSmiodconsole framework.
45c095153dSmiodIt does not provide direct device driver entry points
46c095153dSmiodbut makes its functions available via the internal
47c095153dSmiod.Xr wsdisplay 4
48c095153dSmiodinterface.
490d7f939eSmiod.Sh DISPLAY RESOLUTION
504c679d16SjmcThe XVideo and PowerVideo frame buffers will adapt their resolution and
510d7f939eSmiodrefresh rate to the monitor they are connected to.
524c679d16SjmcHowever, when not connected to a Sun monitor, the device will default to the
53*bf1c21e6Sschwarze.Xr cgthree 4 Ns -compatible
540d7f939eSmiod1152x900 resolution, with a refresh rate of 67Hz.
550d7f939eSmiodA different resolution can be forced using the rotary switch on the edge
560d7f939eSmiodof the board.
570d7f939eSmiod.Pp
580d7f939eSmiodThe available modes are as follows:
594c679d16Sjmc.Bl -column "Rotary" "Resolution" "Refresh Rate" -offset indent
60e324319bSjmc.It Sy Rotary Ta Sy Resolution Ta Sy "Refresh Rate"
610d7f939eSmiod.It Li 0 Ta autodetect Ta autodetect

670d7f939eSmiod.El
680d7f939eSmiod.Pp
690d7f939eSmiodAll other rotary positions will behave as position 0, except for positions
700d7f939eSmiodE and F.
710d7f939eSmiodPosition E enables the board built-in debugger on the serial port, and
720d7f939eSmiodshould not be used by end-users.
730d7f939eSmiodPosition F selects the video mode settings stored in the cards NVRAM.
740d7f939eSmiodThese settings cannot be modified under
750d7f939eSmiod.Ox .
