There should be no problem to get an suitable X11 configuration.
You have two choices to configure it with the TFT connected to the
DVI Port of your graphics card.
1. Edit the /etc/lilo.conf looking for a line like
vga = 7xx
in the global section. change the "7xx" to the value that you like,
for example:
791 for 1024x768 with 16bpp
788 for 800x600 with 16bpp
save it and do not forget to run the command
lilo
afterwards. Reboot your system and configure it with SaX2
after your are logged in as root. Use the following Option:
sax2 -l
You will find a button in the "Desktop Setup Menue" "Expert"
wich defines the Algorythm Method. If you press this button
you can choose "Use Framebuffer Timing". This will build a
modeline that limit the refreshrate to 60Hz. This should work
with all LCD/TFT`s.
2. Load the driver modules from NVIDIA`s Website. Install it with
rpm -Uhv <name of the package>
afterwards run SaX2 with
sax2 -m 0=nvidia -a
this will generate an automatic configuration as
/etc/X11/XF86Config
wich can be edited afterwards.
You have to add an special option in the device
section where the graphics card is. Add
Option "ConnectedMonitor" "DVI"
there, save it and it should work fine ;)
Bye
