1.INTRODUCTION
This is the X graphics driver for the AMD Geode GX and LX processors.
The GX component supports both XAA and EXA for graphics acceleration.
The LX component supports EXA, including compositing. Both support Xv
overlay and dynamic rotation with XRandR. Additionally, a V4L2 driver
for the LX's video input port (VIP) feature is provided as "ztv".
Since version 2.18.1, the GX component no longer has XAA acceleration.
Only EXA support remains.
The LX component supports EXA, including compositing. Additionally, a
V4L2 driver for the LX's video input port (VIP) is provided as "ztv".
Both components support Xv overlay and dynamic rotation with XRandR.
