LGA 1156 (land grid array 1156), also known as Socket H [2] [3] or H1, is an Intel desktop CPU socket.The last processors supporting the LGA 1156 ceased production in 2011. It was succeeded by the mutually incompatible socket LGA 1155.
VESA BIOS Extensions (VBE) is a VESA standard, currently at version 3, that defines the interface that can be used by software to access compliant video boards at high resolutions and bit depths. This is opposed to the "traditional" INT 10h BIOS calls, which are limited to resolutions of 640×480 pixels with 16 colour (4-bit) depth or less.
It also implements INT 10h interrupt and VESA BIOS Extensions (VBE) [1] [2] for basic text and videomode output before a specific video driver is loaded. In UEFI 2.x systems, the INT 10h and the VBE are replaced by the UEFI GOP. [3] [4]
The VESA Local Bus (usually abbreviated to VL-Bus or VLB) is a short-lived expansion bus introduced during the i486 generation of x86 IBM-compatible personal computers.Created by VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association), the VESA Local Bus worked alongside the then-dominant ISA bus to provide a standardized high-speed conduit intended primarily to accelerate video (graphics) operations.
The UniVBE driver was written by SciTech Software and is also available in their product called SciTech Display Doctor. The primary benefit is increased compatibility and performance with DOS games. Many video cards have sub-par implementations of the VESA standards, or no support at all. UNIVBE replaces the card's built-in support.
A DisplayLink driver installer for Debian and Ubuntu-based Linux distributions (Elementary OS, Mint, Kali, Deepin, etc.) is available as part of the displaylink-debian project. [39] There was a DisplayLink-supported open source project called libdlo with the goal of bringing support to Linux and other platforms. [40]
The data format is defined by a standard published by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA). The EDID data structure includes manufacturer name and serial number, product type, phosphor or filter type (as chromaticity data), timings supported by the display, display size, luminance data and (for digital displays only) pixel mapping ...
Microsoft Windows features a standard "Plug and Play Monitor" driver which uses the display's EDID information to construct a list of supported monitor modes. The Display Resolution control panel applet can be used to disable this driver's Plug and Play features and manually select any resolution or refresh rate supported by the video card. [13]
