scitech sort un serveur X11 "universel", autoconfigurable.
Je l'ai essayé, cela semble bien fait, mais sur l'ATI Rage Pro que
j'utilise, l'écran devient
tout noir, bien que le serveur X fonctionne (pas d'erreurs) et les applis
aussi...
Le package RPM fait 2.6Mo, c'est commercial (env 240fr).
A voir donc:

About SciTech Display Doctor for Linux:
---------------------------------------
SciTech Display Doctor for Linux brings SciTech's proven DOS and Windows
device support technologies to the Linux Operating System. Although one
of the core features of our DOS and Windows products is the support for
the VESA VBE/Core standard, the Linux version has nothing at all to do
with VESA services. Rather SciTech Display Doctor for Linux incorportes
the new SciTech Nucleus, Graphics Architecture device driver to bring
SciTech's device support to the Linux platform.
SciTech Nucleus is a binary portable, OS neutral, device driver
architecture. As binary portable drivers, SciTech can fully develop and test
the core device drivers in the DOS and Windows environments, while being
able to target any Intel x86 based OS as the runtime environment (such
as Linux). This essentially allows the Linux product to utilise the same
SciTech binary device drivers as the DOS and Windows versions of the
product, improving the quality and performance of the drivers for all
supported operating systems.
Although SciTech Nucleus drivers will be able to be used directly by
applications built with the free SciTech MGL Graphics Library for Linux,
SciTech Display Doctor for Linux also provides a Universal X11 driver based
on the XFree86 sources. All features of traditional XFree86 servers are
supported including:
. Full 2D acceleration
. XFree86 extensions such as VidMode and DGA for fullscreen applications
. XAA (XFree Acceleration Architecture) support
. On-the-fly mode switching
. Full Monitor Power Management support via the VESA DPMS Standard.
However the SciTech Display Doctor X11 driver also provides the following
additional features not found in other servers:
. Plug and Play configuration of your hardware, including the monitor for
DDC2B-compliant monitors (Microsoft Plug and Play compatible). This
includes never having to create CRTC timings by hand again!
. Single binary server than runs on every chipset supported by the SciTech
drivers (virtually any existing card), with hardware acceleration.
. Both 16:9 and 4:3 aspect ratio display modes.
. Low resolution display modes such as 320x240, 400x300 and 512x384 for
fullscreen games like Quake and Quake II.
Software requirements:
----------------------
. Any Linux distribution, with kernel >= 2.0 (tested with a 2.0.35 kernel)
and GNU libc6 (Red Hat 5.1).
. XFree86 3.3.2 libraries and files (not provided in this package),
previous versions may work too but are not recommended.
. GPM mouse software (comes with all distributions).
. Tcl/Tk version 7.4 or higher (8.0 recommended).
If you do not have the above or later versions of the software installed
on your Linux system, you may want to upgrade your software before
attempting
to install SciTech Display Doctor. Please also ensure that you are using
the latest versions of the above software before sending in any bug reports.
