Ranier, I am not an expert, but barring the lack of any other useful advice to your question, it looks to me like the Rage 128 Pro TF chipset (from lspci) is not listed in the supported chipsets in the logfile. Check the XFree86 website and see if the TF chipset is supported in 4.1.0 or 4.2.0. I know that the Rage 128 Pro PP (PCI) was not originally supported in 4.1.0, but either support was added via 4.1.0.1 (that preprelease) or the debian package maintainer applied a patch to add support for the PP. Maybe something like that is already in the works for the TF, hopefully in time for Woody's release. Then again, like I said, I'm not an expert and could be completely wrong... :( Good Luck, Bill > Fatal server error: > no screens found > > When reporting a problem related to a server crash, please send > the full server output, not just the last messages. > This can be found in the log file "/var/log/XFree86.0.log". > Please report problems to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
