Subject: mandrake 6.1 and xf86 bugged? Hi,
I have a problem getting my #9 Imagine 128 series 2 4mb video
card to work with Mandrake 6.1. I am also using a Hitachi superscan elite
751 (hitachi cm751 choice in setup). The problem is that during setup, the
screen flashes several times, and it comes back saying it cannot set any display
modes. I have used this setup in rh5.2, rh6.0 and mandrake 5.2 previously
with no problems. If I goto the command prompt and run Xconfigurator I get
the same type of errors during setup. During setup probe, it does detect
my #9 pci card correctly. If I run startx, I get the error, "a configured
device found, but display modes could not be resolved". It is also running
the I128 server which is the correct server for the card. I checked the
xf86 faq and it says this card is completly compatible and does not require any
settings, ie ramdac and clock settings. SuperProbe also seems to correctly
identify the video card. I have also deleted and re-installed several
times and removed all other cards from the system except for a pci network card
(which also does not work, but thats another thread), and an sb awe32.
Also, during the startx screen, it shows several lines of deleting "needs hsync
freq xxxx.xxx deleted" for various resolutions, it shows a line (--)
I128:I128-II revision (0)
(--)I128:
card type: pci
(**)I128:
vidram: 4096k
I128:
ibm526 ramdac not found
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
thanks
