-<P>
-<b>radeon_vid</b> and <B>rage128_vid</B> provides support for the <b>BackEnd Scaler</b> on ATI <b>Radeon</b> and Rage128 (Pro) chipsets.
-It was designed and introduced as analog of <a href="video.html#2.3.1.7">mga_vid</a> driver, so you can use it in the same way!<br>
-But main goal of this driver usage is <a href="video.html#2.3.1.12">VESA</a> driver.<br>
-Simply because VESA enables TV-out on ATI's card but Backend scaler is used after
-mode switching. This implementation outputs video stream on both: <b>TV-screen</b> and <b>CRTC</b>
-display simultaneously. (It slightly degrades quality of video output but it's
-much better than nothing).
-Sorry! I couldn't find out any video overlay's related information
-on ATI pages. (I planned to implement it through <b>int 10h</b> calls). But it was
-very easy to implement this stuff through reading/writing Radeon ports.
-<br><b>NOTE</b>: XXX_VID technology is perfectly undocumented and maybe in the
-future this stuff will be fully rewritten. This is the first public release of
-driver.</P>
