We have a new Motorola Delta 8864 system with dual 88k CPU running
System V Release 3.2. We are trying to plug a Tadpole 1600x1200 color
graphics card into it. The problem we are having is with a sequence
of calls to shmget() and shmat(). Rather than delve into the many
ways I have tried it that have failed, does anyone out there have
a working code fragment they can send me that will:
Grab a 20 Mbyte hunk of shared memory at a given physical
memory location (the frame buffer and control registers)
Attach to that shared memory and use it from user space.
Thanks in advance.
