There were a lot of problems I saw... hopefully solved now. My problem is
different: I manage to get into X as before, but the server seems to add
noise to the image when something changes on the screen. It begins with
some stars (single pixels) before even the grey pattern appears,
continuously pattering the screen while moving the cursor, like an old tv
without an antenna.
This happens with several Chipset entries. After some tries even the
normal text font begins to show some strange pixels. (My t's showing up
here are quite ugly...)
What can I do to get my screen back?
my old Device config in xf86config: (I used the best match)
Section "Device"
Identifier "Trident TGUI9420DGi (generic)"
VendorName "Unknown"
BoardName "Unknown"
#VideoRam 1024
Ramdac "sc15025"
Clockchip "sc11412"
EndSection
this is my new try which shows the same snow:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Trident TGUI9420DGi (generic)"
VendorName "IBM"
BoardName "Laptop card"
VideoRam 1024
ChipSet "tgui9320lcd"
EndSection
this shows up when starting the server:
