Re: Woody on Ultra 10
Ben, The following are the links to the files that may be useful to debug the problem : http://www.csee.wvu.edu/~aravind/XF86Config-4 http://www.csee.wvu.edu/~aravind/XFree86.0.log Any suggestions? I have set the default desktop environment to gnome. I rebooted the machine and even tried to restart X using startx but the problem seems to be same, no display. It just shows me a blank black screen, even if X is running in the background. thanks, Aravind On Thu, 22 Aug 2002, Ben Collins wrote: On Thu, Aug 22, 2002 at 09:36:50PM -0400, Aravind Vinnakota wrote: Hi all, I installed 3.0 on a Sun Ultra 10.

Do you mean it gives you a blank screen, the X blank/white checkered background and cursor, or just something else you were not expecting? Do you get an error?

Re: Woody on Ultra 10
You can try the kernel-image-2.4.18, I was using using kernel-image-2.2.20 and the problem was the same. When you install it, it just works.

I hope your monitor is a big fat one that can handle the high refresh rate the card is trying to push. I spent ages wondering why X wasnt working, it would start and run fine etc. But then i tried the ueber fat arse monitor the guy next door had, perfect first time. :) Cheers -- Rob 'robster' Bradford Founder: http://www.debianplanet.org/ Developer: http://www.debian.org/ Monkey with keyboard: http://www.robster.org.uk/ signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Re: woody on ultra 10 with elite3D

I could run xfree, but it is so slow, i had to deactivate dri in the xfree86config-4 to could run, how could i activate that? Install the afbinit package, and then locate the proprietary firmware. Just follow the instructions in /usr/doc/afbinit/README.Debian. You can usually locate a copy of the firmware by searching for afb.ucode at google. I use an Elite3D with my U30, and it works fairly well when the microcode is loaded. -- Debian - http://www.debian.org/ Linux 1394 - http://linux1394.sourceforge.net/ Subversion - http://subversion.tigris.org/ Deqo - http://www.deqo.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
