Cc: havemann AT uran DOT informatik DOT uni-bonn DOT de Dear djgpp-ers! =============== I'm suffering from the restrictive information policy of Matrox. I would like to develop my own 3D Sources (fast games, new GUIs...) using my Matrox Millenium graphics card, but I don't even find a libgrx driver for it... As it seems to be extremely hard to get any information (interrupt call docs, sources for direct hardware access) I propose that ALL MATROX USERS UNITE and maybe there's someone strong enough to DECODE (disassemble) given 3D-Samples (nascar racing and others) to extract information to let people DISPLAY TEXTURED TRIANGLES USING Z-BUFFER , a thing this damn peace of hardware is capable of, but it WON'T LET ME GET AT IT, it seems. - So if there's ANYBODY out there having a minimum of experience with the Matrox Millenium, I'd appreciate any pointer to any bit of information about it. Is there a newsgroup? Is there a ftp server? Is there a war between the Linux/GNU community and Matrox Inc.? And why? PLEASE respond, thanks in advance, Your's, Sven. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sven A.
