Hi, I've been working on getting the lite5200 board running with the Denx supplied coralP X11 drivers. I have the Fujitsu PCI card and the console is working on it. The denx site has tons of info and really got me up and running in record time. The X11 drivers and video are exactly what I need to get going, but I have now started to drown in my lack of experience.
I followed the denx app note to get debian up: http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/AN2004_08_DebianOnPowerpcInstallationHowto I used the 2.4.25 Kernel from denx (modified a bit to support USB HID and to change the PCI address for my CoralPA card). I have had two problems - both related to X11 / X / XF86. 1 - I have used apt to retrieve X and can run it using the generic framebuffer. I get the cross-hatch background and the 'X' cursor only. The only window manager APT will let me get is olvm, which I can't seem to get to start up. I have a feeling that using debian-woody has left me with a too-limited set of X packages (or the supporting libs/etc) to get past this. == Has anyone had debian-woody and the zvideo app running?? 2 - When I use the denx drivers from the denx site I have this issue: (II) Module mb86290: vendor="The XFree86 Project" compiled for 4.3.0.1, module version = 0.1.0 Module class: XFree86 Video Driver ABI class: XFree86 Video Driver, version 0.6 (EE) module ABI minor version (6) is newer than the server's version (4) (II) UnloadModule: "mb86290" (II) Unloading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/mb86290_drv.o (EE) Failed to load module "mb86290" (module requirement mismatch, 0) Any insight would be appreciated.
