Hi Leo:
My video card is a S3 Trio 64 3D. With the help of a fellow of the foro I
configured the video mode.
(I use mandrake Air 7.02 and Xfree 3.3.6)
But not fully, here my explanation:
If I start the Gui with startx y can see the kde grafical user interface,
but if I start with kdm the screen became black.
Trying to introduce the user name and password with the screen blank, if
those are correct then I can see the kde. The same with gdm or xdm.
You could try this. Maybe is your case too.
I hope it works for you.
Good Luck.

Asunto: [newbie] XFree86 Setup Question
I have an IBM 300PL, with integrated Trio3D chip on the motherboard. I
installed XFree86 3.3.6. I have tried the Trio3D, Trio3D/2X, and the 86C365
setting. All these settings don't work. The screen just goes black.
Sometimes I can recover by using ctl-alt-backspace, and other times the
machine is locked up.
The chip says 86C366 on it. There does not seem to be a listing in the
graphic cards for this chip.
Anyone have this working? Do you have an XF86Config file or the needed lines
in the config to make this work?
Thanks for any help
Leo
