[MPlayer-users] G400 Max - matroxfb modules problem

[Martin Wulffeld]

Hi

I'm having some trouble getting through section 2.3.1.A.1. The docs says to 
enable all matroxfb specific features in the kernel as modules except 
Multihead. That I have done - almost -.

The following modules now reside in /lib/modules/2.4,18/kernel/video/matrox/.

$ ls -l
6728 i2c-matroxfb.o
12012 matroxfb_crt2.o
13932 matroxfb_maven.o

If I run the ./modules script in TVout as root modprobe complains that each 
module can't be found. Why?

Looking at the output from ./modules I am evidently missing one module 
'matroxfb_Ti3026'. However, I can't figure out where to enable it in the 
config. In the Frame-buffer Support->Matrox acceleration section of the 
config I've enabled G400 support and then Matrox I2C support (module) and 
G400 Second head support (module). I did not enable G450/G550 support or 
Multihead support. Any clues?

BTW: I wasn't aware that I needed to enable most of the I2C stuff under 
Character devices in the kernel config to be able to see these features 
(I2C and Second head) in the framebuffer section. Maybe this should be in 
the doc? Took me a while to figure out.
