Arif, The XFree86 4.1.0 support for the S3 video chipsets is pretty bad.
You might try using an XFree86 3.3.6 Xserver. Download and install the ltsp_x336_s3 and/or the ltsp_x336_s3v packages. Then, in the lts.conf file, try setting XSERVER to either 'XF86_S3' or 'XF86_S3V'. If the XSERVER value starts with 'XF86_', then it will use the 3.3.6 xservers. Hope that helps, Jim McQuillan [EMAIL PROTECTED] Arif Mamdani wrote: >Hey folks, >having an odd problem getting X running on a workstation.
