Hi, I've got a very old "graphics" card, a Tseng ET4000/W32p and the tseng driver of course doesn't work. I tried thousands of monitor timing settings, this card always whirls colors in 16bpp (none of the possible -weight's worked) and the monitor problems get even worse with 24bpp (don't know why the depth influences this).
However the "vesa" driver strangely sets up the correct video modes (BTW the "vga" only works for 320x200). The only problem with the vesa driver is, that it apperently can't change back to the first 64K bank if in "ShadowFB" mode (only the initial black/white dots background of X11 appears in the first 100 lines of the screen). So is there a way to force this vesa driver into linear video memory mode with this vesa 1.2 card if I could tell it the correct place to write to. I found the "MemBase" directive in the man page of XFree 4.1.0, but it doesn't seem to have any effect. thanks for any idea, mario -- =================== be the penguin :-) =================== [EMAIL PROTECTED] always with +-|- erphesfurt.de/mario Tel:+49-361-6422638 you / \ ICQ#95596825 ________________________________________________________________ Viren?
