Here is the hardware that I am running :
Processor : Intel Pentium II 350
Mainboard : FIC Mainboard w/BX chipset and AGP slot
Memory : 128 MB SDRAM (PC100 Compliant)
Video Card : Diamond SpeedStar A50 AGP 8MB SiS6326 Chipset
Monitor : CTX VL700 17in
I have tried numerous configurations and I have changed the XF86Config file
so many times I have lost count. My problem is that KDE is not painting
windows and menus correctly. Whenever I right click the mouse I get a
black square rather than a menu with options. The icons, background, and
the bottom button bar are all correctly drawn. When I open windows or apps
I get a main window frame but I am missing the content inside the window
(it is partially there but is mostly a black area.) After setting up the
XServer to run with the SiS6326 Chipset I have a problem with the mouse
cursor becoming a one inch by one inch square. The only mode that the
system works correctly in is VGA (I want to avoid VGA 640x480 if you know
what I mean.) I have tried all color depths that my card would allow and
all different modes. I have tried selecting different monitor types and
changing the refresh rates. Does anyone out there have any idea how I
would go about getting X to work correctly with my card? Is there anyone
out there who is running X (kde) with a Diamond Speedstar A50? Any advice
would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
