Guys and Gals:
I think I can safely call it a bug now. After an exhaustive search
or xfree.org, Mandrake expert & newbie, and querrying the Mandrake chat
rooms, there are no answers why X4.2 and X3.3.6 that ship with LM 8.2
will NOT work with my #9 Imagine 128 video card. Others have had similar
problems, with no answers found (see below google query on "addscreen
screeninit I128")

Recall from my earlier posts, X works fine in the LM7.2 distro with
X4.01
I've re-installed from original d/l, then re-downloaded, re-burned,
re-md5sumed, re-installed with fresh ISO's. I've XFdraked and
xf86configed every conceivable way possible, 640x480 to 1280x1024, all
color depths, generic monitors, chosen my NEC Accusynd 95F monitor, and
nothing helps.....
With X4.2, startx bombs with the error Fatal server error:
AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0
With 3.3.6, startx bombs (or hangs) with the error Fatal server error:
no screens found
I am out of answers. I don't think it would be productive for me to try
to recompile the I128 server by hand (God knows it would never work
then)
DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS OTHER THAN "BUY A NEW VIDEO CARD"
I guess the real question is "what changed in the I128 sever between
4.01 and 4.2?" 4.01 is still working fine in LM7.2 on the same machine.
X4.2 or X3.3.6 will not start under LM8.2 on the same machine.
Out of answers, probably spent 30 hours digging into this and I really,
really need help.....
