Hello List,
I am sending this in Windows (sob!) because I was foolish enough to try
to upgrade my LM7.0 with the 2.2.16-9mdk kernel and XFree86 4.0 to
LM7.1. Now I am completely unable to startx. I have tried
XFree86 -config, xf86config and Xconfigurator and the result is the
same - the hatched sceen with the x pointer is as far as I get. xf86
config seems to have a bug as well because it gets to the screen where
it asks do you want to look at a list of cards and when I answer y the
program exits to the mc screen. Of course I am running the dreaded
SiS6326 chip with an LG 56i monitor so I am behind the 8ball, but all
was well with LM7.0.
Can anyone suggest a fix which doesn't include new hardware? Is it
possible to "upgrade" back to LM7.0 while preserving my data - I have
backups but it will be a pain to reinstall. Has anyone got LM7.1 to
work with the Sis6326 chip? Can anyone assist please?
Yours in anguish.
