chips driver doesn't work anymore
Hi, Please tell me if this isn't the right please to sent this mail. I've been using the experimental debs from phase 1 and never had a problem, untill phase2v9 and phase2v10. It seems that the chips driver is broken. I've got a toshiba 320cdt laptop, with a C&T 6 video card. When i start X, my machine completly hangs and the screen fades to white in a very weird way. I've only seen this behaviour before when forcing wrong modelines, (modelines that work on an external monitor but are wrong for the internal lcd)... X works alright when i replace chips_drv.o with an older version. Unfortunately i can't supply any logs when using the newer version of the driver , because when my machine enters graphical mode it hangs ;( Gtnx Sjoerd PS. please cc me in the replies, i'm not subscribed to the list, only browse the archives from time to time. PS2. Branden, thnx for the great work on the debs, even the phase 1 ones have always worked perfectly for me. -- Certainly the game is rigged.

chips driver doesn't work anymore
Hi, Please tell me if this isn't the right please to sent this mail. I've been using the experimental debs from phase 1 and never had a problem, untill phase2v9 and phase2v10. It seems that the chips driver is broken. I've got a toshiba 320cdt laptop, with a C&T 6 video card. When i start X, my machine completly hangs and the screen fades to white in a very weird way. I've only seen this behaviour before when forcing wrong modelines, (modelines that work on an external monitor but are wrong for the internal lcd)... X works alright when i replace chips_drv.o with an older version. Unfortunately i can't supply any logs when using the newer version of the driver , because when my machine enters graphical mode it hangs ;( Gtnx Sjoerd PS. please cc me in the replies, i'm not subscribed to the list, only browse the archives from time to time. PS2. Branden, thnx for the great work on the debs, even the phase 1 ones have always worked perfectly for me. -- Certainly the game is rigged.

Blur problem
I've been having this problem with X for a while now, on my Sony VAIO laptop. Basically, the behavior I experience is shown at http://flounder.net/blur.jpg . It happens when I move a netscape window (or some other apps) toward the edge of the screen. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? I avoided submitting a bug on XF 3.6 because I knew that 4 would be out soon and that it was probably an upstream thing. --Adam -- Adam McKenna <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | "No matter how much it changes, http://flounder.net/publickey.html | technology's just a bunch of wires GPG: 17A4 11F7 5E7E C2E7 08AA| connected to a bunch of other wires." 38B0 05D0 8BF7 2C6D 110A| Joe Rogan, _NewsRadio_

Blur problem
I've been having this problem with X for a while now, on my Sony VAIO laptop. Basically, the behavior I experience is shown at http://flounder.net/blur.jpg . It happens when I move a netscape window (or some other apps) toward the edge of the screen. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? I avoided submitting a bug on XF 3.6 because I knew that 4 would be out soon and that it was probably an upstream thing. --Adam -- Adam McKenna <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | "No matter how much it changes, http://flounder.net/publickey.html | technology's just a bunch of wires GPG: 17A4 11F7 5E7E C2E7 08AA| connected to a bunch of other wires." 38B0 05D0 8BF7 2C6D 110A| Joe Rogan, _NewsRadio_ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
