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
