No, I didn't find any register information except application report
on interrupts(I'll send it to you if necessary, which is just a 115K PDF)
probably because it is obsolete. But you can find it in the pcmcia-cs
package, whose auther may have a document(though I'm not quite sure).

BBTW, I'm new in the MOL source and I need some information/explanation.
Today I tried to add RageLTPro OF properties to MOL oftree.nw,
insert it into the pci device tree and mmu map full 16MB aperture
in thw video driver(on PB G3). I could run the drawing engine within
MacOS manually, but ATI's extension didn't seem to recognize the chip
at all. I even tried to load & insert into the driver properties field
the driver extracted from ATI Driver update file, but no success.
I don't understand MOL interface mechanism yet(and unfortunately
my macos complier, symantec c++ doesn't work on recent system).

What is the correct way to accelerate MOL video?

Thanks,
