Hi,
I've started to work on a VMware graphic driver for BeOS/Haiku. It's
basically working now, I can't say it's noticeably faster than VESA
(it only implements RECT_BLIT) but it's nice being able to use any
resolution (and without rebooting). Cursor is implemented as well, but
disabled for now since it's a bit buggy.
I uploaded a tarball there: http://lapsus.org/~titer/vmware-driver.tar.gz
Mandatory screenshot: http://lapsus.org/~titer/vmware-driver.png
It'd be nice if someone could take the time and include it in Haiku
- this is my first driver ever, someone more experienced should have a
look ;). It's based on Be's sample driver and parts of my code are
inspired by the X.org driver, all this should be MIT-compatible (?).
Let me know what you think / whether it works for you, thanks!
