Subject: [LI] Manjunathan cries for HELP in configuring AGP card : Trident

Dear gang,
Hi this is my first message to the list ;-)
My name is Soumendra Nanda
and i am studying in TE ,RAIT, Nerul.
I have a trident 3dimage 975 4 mb vram and a 15" samtron monitor 5ei
if u want i can send u my xf86 config file.. just edit the mouse part cos i
use an intellimouse or run setup to config the mouse.
ONlY prob is that i have it running only at 1024x760 at 16 and 32 bit depths
using
startx -- -bpp 16
or startx -- -bpp 32
i dont like 8 bit ... but 2 probs... when after i type startx my monitor
syncs out and i press ctrl +alt + del once to get it into 1024 x 760 and it
works like a charm...
alas none of the othe rmodes work and i miss not having 800 x 600 ( best for
web pages )
if anyone is getting more resolutions working please let me know.
i suspect it must be something with monitor sync rates though i tried lots
of combinations and xf86setup xconfigurator & xf86config
regarding your problem with enlightenment... i advise u to reinstall all
enlightenment packages and remove any core files.
also i would advise u install wmaker/windowmaker packages. ;-)
then type wmaker.inst for each user
and make a file called ".xinitrc" mind the dot !with one line "exec wmaker"
dont type the " ".
if u like kde then from xterm ( i prefer Eterm) type kfm & or gmc & to make
life easier .....if u like gnome.
Cheerio
