New fast VESA video driver for eComStation (from Eugene Gorbunoff) |
eCo Software and Mensys BV have reached an agreement to create a generic VESA driver for eComStation.
This driver is called \"Panorama VESA\", and supports all VESA 2.0 compatible video adapters, which then can be used with the eComStation operating system. Until now some modern chipsetswere not properly supported by the Scitech SNAP driver that is included with eComStation. The driver is currently under active development. The goal is to achieve maximum performance, support multi-core computers, allow users to work normally with their web-browser, watch DVD and to generally use their PC for everyday work. How to obtain this driver An early preview of this driver is available via the eComStation BetaZone to customers who have an active Software Subscription Services. Requirements Panorama VESA may be installed over GENGRAD, SDDGRAD or SNAP. To get maximum performance on a Core 2 Duo or AMD X2 based computer, the ACPI subsystem should be installed. ACPI can be obtained seperately from the eComStation BetaZone but is also an install option with eComStation 2.0 (beta 2 and higher).

Developers had great difficulty making their OS/2 product visible on the market. Mensys started to contact OS/2 resellers and distributors worldwide and built an extensive distribution network. Mensys has obtained worldwide distribution rights to eComStation and is actively supporting it\'s further development. About eCo Software eCo Software is a small group of professional developers creating drivers, WPS applications and system utilities for eComStation. -> comments: 0 [ Version for printing ] [ Send via eMail ] |

Alternative video drivers for eComStation (from Eugene Gorbunoff) |
Do you need new accelerated video drivers for eComStation?
eCo Software expected the problems with video drivers so the specialists started the research of video drivers in 2005. We made good analysis of video adapters market but started the development of drivers for other family of devices. We made many mistakes (not enough resources, very complex goals) but we made an attempt. We presented Panorama video driver at Warpstock Europe 2005 conference (Dresden, Germany). Currently we have implemented support for ATI Radeon R100 and R200 families only: ATI Radeon 7000, 7200, 7500, Mobility Radeon 7000, 7500, ATI Radeon 8500, 8500DV, 8500LE, 9000, 9100, 9100IGP, 9200, 9200SE, 9250, Mobility Radeon 9000, 9200, 9250 Panorama R200 offers 2D acceleration, other features.

How to run eComStation on modern video adapters? eComStation users do not agree purchase one model of eComStation PC. Every user purchases different set of hardware.
