video card driver version directx
DVB Driver Project 1.1.1
DVB Driver Project is a driver for DVB cards by many manufacturers. more>>
* The Siemens DVB card - this is the card we developped the Linux drivers for (thanks to the Siemens guys). The Siemens DVB-S card is identical to the cards built by Hauppauge, Technotrend, Galaxis and Katek. We also support the Siemens DVB-C card.
* Hauppauge has released a low budget version of the Siemens card. The WinTV Nova has no MPEG2 decoder chip anymore. From driver version 0.8 on we support this card - you should be able to get a complete transport stream from it.
* Technotrend has developed a DVB-T card and our driver also supports this card (both, the version with DSP and the Nova card). Most DVB-S cards (except for Version 1.6) are also supported by us. The Technotrend DVB-C card (at least the newer version 2.1) is currently not working with our driver.
* The Telemann Skymedia card - never seen that card, but there are Linux drivers
* The Pentamedia cards - Linux drivers for a IP-over-Satellite card.

- other real time effect processing tools
It can boot and run directly from CD-ROM or be installed to hard disk with morphixinstaller. This means that the Linux audio architecture such as jack and alsa is pre-configured and easy to install.
Root privileges
There is no default root password set on the CD therefore is sudo used for super user privileges. Execute these commands in a terminal:
sudo sh
passwd
exit
su
HDD-Install
Start a terminal and get root privileges, as described above. Execute the command for starting the installer:
morphixinstaller
Keyboard configuration in X
If you want to set your x-windows-system to use another keyboard layout execute "setxkbmap < Keyboad language abrevation >". To set X to use swedish keyboard execute:
setxkbmap se
Jack
Some audio applications does not communicate directly with the soundcard. In that case is most commonly Jack is used as an interface witch enables multiply applications to output sound simultaneously. You need to manually start jack before starting applications such as ardour and jack-rack. Start jack grapical control:
qjackctl
Start jack in a terminal:
jackd -d alsa
There is an shortcut in the menu named "Jack Control", this is a graphical interface for the jack server. You might need to configure jack from this program in order to make it run well on your system.
NVIDIA video card
If you have NVIDA card boot Sork with the boot option xmodule set to nvidia. From the grub boot menu select More Boot Options->NV driver.
VESA cards is handled in the same way; select More Boot Options->VESA driver in the grub boot loader.
Card Terminal Driver Library 20011112
Card Terminal Driver Library aims to add support for smart card and magnetic stripe card terminals. more>>
Things that should get done:

The above mentioned driver was written for the ZR36120/ZR36125-based MediaFocus Sat-PC card. Nowadays TechniSat is selling a new MediaFocus card, which is based on the Philips SAA 7146 multimedia-chip. A driver for this card can be found on the official TechniSat MediafocusII website.
Low Resolution Modeline Calculator 0.9.2
Low Resolution Modeline Calculator is a modeline calculator for legacy CRT displays. more>>
Low Resolution Modeline Calculator can also be used to calculate low resolution modelines for modern multisync PC monitors.
As its name implies, it is not designed for calculating large resolutions, resolutions that operate over 65kHz.
Options:
-v, --vsync
Calculate the nearest mode in vertical synchronization.
-b, --bestscan
Calculate the nearest best scan mode.
-i, --interlace
Include support for interlaced calculations. Interlaced modes are not supported by many video cards. You should only enable this option if you know your video card supports them.
-d, --doublescan
Include support for doublescanned calculations. Doublescanned modes are not supported by many video cards. You should only enable this option if you know your video card supports them.
-n, --nostretch
Do not stretch modes that are out of range for your monitor. You should use this option if you know that your application does not support integer stretching.
-y, --ystretch
Assume fractional stretching of the y-resolution. You should use this option if you know that your application supports fractional stretching of the y-resolution and you want to stretch an underscanned mode so that it fills the entire screen.
-l, --lowpclock
Many video cards do not reliably support pixel clocks lower than 8mHz. If you know that your video card and its driver support pixel clocks lower than 8mHz, then you should use this option.
-h, --highpclock
Most X11 video card drivers do not support pixel clocks lower than 12mHz. In some cases your video card may not support pixel clocks lower than 12mHz either (rare). If you know that your video card (or your video card driver) does not support pixel clocks lower than 12mHz, then you should use this option.
-3x4
Stretch the horizontal resolution so that the mode has a 3:4 aspect ratio. You can use this option to correctly display vertical resolutions on a horizontal monitor.
-x, --X11R6
Print modeline in X11 format (default).
-f, --fb
Print modeline in fbset format.
-a, --advmame
Print modeline in AdvanceMAME format.
-s, --SDL
Print modeline in X11 format to stdout and print AdvanceMAME X11 configuration to stderr.
-p, --powerstrip
Print modeline in PowerStrip format.
-pal
Calculate modelines for a PAL Television (15.625kHz).
-ntsc
Calculate modelines for a NTSC Television (15.73426kHz).
-cga
Calculate modelines for a standard resolution arcade monitor (15.7500kHz).
-ega
Calculate modelines for a medium resolution arcade monitor (24.960kHz).
-vga
Calculate modelines for a standard VGA monitor (31.500kHz).
-d9200
Calculate modelines for a Wells-Gardner 9200 arcade monitor (15kHz, 25kHz, 31kHz).
