 | Default video modes | 
 | ------------------- | 
 | At the moment, there are two kernel command line arguments supported: | 
 |  | 
 | mode:640x480 | 
 | mode:800x600 | 
 | 	or | 
 | mode:1024x768 | 
 |  | 
 | Full support for startup video modes (modedb) will be integrated soon. | 
 |  | 
 | Version 1.9.9.1 | 
 | --------------- | 
 | * Fix memory detection for 512kB case | 
 | * 800x600 mode | 
 | * Fixed timings | 
 | * Hint for AXP: Use -accel false -vyres -1 when changing resolution | 
 |  | 
 |  | 
 | Version 1.9.4.4 | 
 | --------------- | 
 | * Preliminary Laguna support | 
 | * Overhaul color register routines. | 
 | * Associated with the above, console colors are now obtained from a LUT | 
 |   called 'palette' instead of from the VGA registers.  This code was | 
 |   modelled after that in atyfb and matroxfb. | 
 | * Code cleanup, add comments. | 
 | * Overhaul SR07 handling. | 
 | * Bug fixes. | 
 |  | 
 |  | 
 | Version 1.9.4.3 | 
 | --------------- | 
 | * Correctly set default startup video mode. | 
 | * Do not override ram size setting.  Define | 
 |   CLGEN_USE_HARDCODED_RAM_SETTINGS if you _do_ want to override the RAM | 
 |   setting. | 
 | * Compile fixes related to new 2.3.x IORESOURCE_IO[PORT] symbol changes. | 
 | * Use new 2.3.x resource allocation. | 
 | * Some code cleanup. | 
 |  | 
 |  | 
 | Version 1.9.4.2 | 
 | --------------- | 
 | * Casting fixes. | 
 | * Assertions no longer cause an oops on purpose. | 
 | * Bug fixes. | 
 |  | 
 |  | 
 | Version 1.9.4.1 | 
 | --------------- | 
 | * Add compatibility support.  Now requires a 2.1.x, 2.2.x or 2.3.x kernel. | 
 |  | 
 |  | 
 | Version 1.9.4 | 
 | ------------- | 
 | * Several enhancements, smaller memory footprint, a few bugfixes. | 
 | * Requires kernel 2.3.14-pre1 or later. | 
 |  | 
 |  | 
 | Version 1.9.3 | 
 | ------------- | 
 | * Bundled with kernel 2.3.14-pre1 or later. |
