Hi,
I filed this bug a few years ago https://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/11456 ;.
It was closed as a duplicate of https://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/8626 -
display port logic needing to be implemented.
I have been looking for details on how to write Haiku video drivers to see
if I could dig into this issue and help. I found this thesis from 2003
https://www.haiku-os.org/legacy-docs/writing-video-card-drivers . Is this
the best place to start on learning about Haiku video card programming?
When I boot into safe mode VESA the video works and actually seems pretty
good. I could work with this, except it is a manual step to switch to VESA
mode during the boot process. Is there a way to make this a permanent?
Other than getting my card to work in 'native' mode, I would like to be
able use the two monitors that I have connected. In VESA mode the card is
in mirror mode. Does VESA mode support two monitors?
