Indivision ECS - P96 driver

Ratte:

So cool! I wish I could try it out but i have no ecs indi! It would be interesting this driver with Vlab motion in an A2000 and see how it works (the movieshop software screen is static and basic, the only hard part is the full color thumbnails...)

Transition: why would you slag off on Piru on of the few remaining programmers who care or post here??? that is so puzzling to me.. yet if HAYNIE posts (who hasnt done anything amiga in YEARS) you guys all jump over yourselfs in praise?

Unless he meant piru would know if it was real/technically possible?

A new version is planed with another resolution(s) ?

Should be a bit faster at 640x480...

Any one knows if he is also doing an indi aga version?

We dont know. If anything it would be targeted to MK2..

I think that the ECS version has a different framebuffer that allowed him to write this driver. I really would like to see it in practicle application.

Not for current indivision aga at least. Indi aga has no framebuffer and chipset emu like on indi ecs, so it's not possible. Mk2 ... Well depends how it's implemented.

I've installed it on a clean install and i don't see any Indi mode in the Screenmodes prefs. In Picasso96Modes, i see 3 modes but none are modifiable and i am not able to "attach" the board as we usually do in P96.
Any clue? I have installed mmu.library too.

It's not working here neither. It does show up in the ScreenMode prefs as:
indi:320x240   - 58Hz, 38,28Khz
indi:640:480   - 87Hz, 38,28Khz
indi:800x600   - 87Hz, 38,28Khz
indi:1024x768  - 91Hz, 38,40Khz
IndivisionECS:800x600 - 0Hz, 0,00Khz

When I use the indi modes, the screen goes black and stays black. So I have to reboot the machine. When I use IndivisionECS:800x600 mode, the screen goes a few seconds black and then comes back, but it is just the "normal" PAL mode.
I've installed every piece of software correctly, so I must assume that this new driver is still kinda buggy... It's a shame really, I wanted to have my WB in 256 colors so badly...
