I'm using a TurboGX w/o any problems on a ss4. Which Debian/XFree86 
version are you using? Did you look in /var/log/XFree86.?.log ?

Hi Ayo

I have an SS20 running Debian Woody with sbus graphics, kernel 2.4.? 
configured and compiled by myself. X works fine on that machine.

At the moment, I do not have access to my SS20 - if you don't have a solution 
until friday, send me a mail. I can send you my XF86Config if you want.

Regards,

   Hartwig
