Raptor GFX-8P

Introduction

The Raptor GFX-8P is a PCI-based frame buffer made by TechSource. As far as I know, it's exactly the same as Sun's PGX 32 frame buffer, just with a different name. The card has 8MB video memory, is capable of 8 and 24bit displays and features a standard VGA output.

Tested Configuration

Aurora Version	Configuration	Remarks	Reporter
1.0	Ultra 5, 400MHz UltraSPARC IIi, Raptor GFX-8P framebuffer, 256MB RAM	The Raptor is not 100% supported by the installer and can also cause trouble when switching between X and console. Also, you need to use XFree86 3.3.6 drivers, as XFree86 4.x does not (yet?) fully support this card.	Emgaron
1.0	Tatung COMPstation U10, 400MHz UltraSPARC IIi, Raptor GFX-8P frame buffer, 640MB RAM	Same notes as for the Ultra 5 above apply.	Emgaron
