I can't get X to work on my machine (well Xpmac works, but I don't
want to use it). It's an imac G3 500 indigo with a r128 video card.
Sorry for the long post but this is frustrating me and I can't figure
out what the problem is. I've double-checked my X configs and they
look fine (to me), but I have a feeling that X isn't detecting
something (notice the no screens found error message, yet the screens
section is defined).
...snip
I am having a very similar problem on my iMac 350. I did have X
working under the 8.0 beta, but it stopped working after I updated
using RC1. My latest full install (including reformatting the / and
home partitions) of 8.0 (final) still hasn't helped and I can't start
X.
My XF86Config-4 file is essentially the same as Vincent's save
for:
- the pointer section: (I'm using a MS wheel mouse) so I also
have Load "glx" and Load "dri" lines in this
section.
- the Monitor section: I have an extra modeline for
"1024x768" that starts with 78...
My XFree86.0.log file is similar (albeit longer) than Vincent's.
I have an error: (EE) Failed to load module "dri" (module
does not exist, 0)
which I assume is something to do with the wheel mouse (???) but
doesn't appear fatal. While Vincent gets a "No devices detected"
error, my log shows that ATI Rage 128 RL (AGP) is found. My log
continues for a few more lines but ends with the same fatal server
error: no screens found.
