Diamond Video Drivers

807559Aug 27 2001
Is there any Solaris video drivers for the Stealth III series cards? Or do I have to go with the (ugh!) XiGraphics X-Server to get support for the current Diamond boards?

Looking at the most recent HCL, it looks to me like to only Diamond boards supported by Solaris are legacy boards. Diamond lists the following as their current video boards, yet I see none of the on the HCL:
Viper II
Stealth III S540 Xtreme
Stealth III S540
SpeedStar A200
SpeedStar A90
FireGL 4
FireGL 3

Also, the only AGP Diamond cards supported are the Viper V770 and Fire GL 1000 Pro which appear to be considered legacy cards by Diamond.

Most of the Diamond boards on the HCL are not even available today. For example, I had a Stealth 3D/2000-Pro that bit the dust, and Diamond replaced it with a Stealth III S540. Any idea if ANY help is on the way for support of more recent Diamond video cards? Any other work-around suggestions?
