[Newbie]XFree86-4.2.1
I have XFree86 4.2.1 installed in Red Hat 8.0. I have a Hitachi CM751 monitor and Riva TNT2 M64 video card which will support resolution of 1152 x 864 at a refresh of 100Hz. This was easily achieved in every version of XFree86 prior to 4.1, but 4.2.1 will only allow a refresh of 85Hz. I have installed the latest nVidia driver ( nVidia -1.0-3123 ), but still I can find no way to increase the refresh rate. At 85Hz the screen is narrowed, so I need to increase to 100Hz. Could anyone please provide a sample XF86Config which shows how to add a mode line to the config file and force the refresh up.

[Newbie]Xinerama -- ATI Radeon 7500. Why not?
Well my new ATI card seems to work great (I had had problems with the first one I received not doing higher than 800x600 properly). I managed to get my hands on a Mitsubishi Diamond Scan 17HX (analog CRT, 17") display. That, with my CTX 17", I would like to have dual head support. However, my current attempts have only led the primary output to display. The ATI card has one analog and one digital port, and I have put a digital->analog convertor on the latter. Regardless of which monitor I put as primary, the secondary one will not display through X. I do not think is even -trying-. Looking at the logs there are some hints that it knows I -want- to have two displays, but no indication of -why- it doesn't go all the way and give me just that. I also noted that the display comes up on the primary without any traces that there might be a second display there (such as the mouse going off into some void on a side of the screen). I'm running Debian (sid), with the pre-release 4.2 server packages. I've searched and tried several variations on what others thought (and even said) worked for the ATI card. But all of them do the exact same thing (except for those suggesting to put 'Option "agpmode" 4', which doesn't work at all). Attached is my configuration file and my server log. You all helped tremendously before in diagnoising my hardware failure -- I would double in your debt for any help with this new problem. Thank you very much (in advance), Adam Luter (Gryn) p.s. my ATI card is a ATI 7500 64mb AGP DDR card. ### BEGIN DEBCONF SECTION # XF86Config-4 (XFree86 server configuration file) generated by dexconf, the # Debian X Configuration tool, using values from the debconf database. # # Edit this file with caution, and see the XF86Config-4 manual page. # (Type "man XF86Config-4" at the shell prompt.) # # If you want your changes to this file preserved by dexconf, only make changes # before the "### BEGIN DEBCONF SECTION" line above, and/or after the # "### END DEBCONF SECTION" line below. # # To change things within the debconf section, run the command: # dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 # as root.

[Newbie]Re: Easy newbie question: can't start xserver
Newbies, Fixed these issues, and here's how: 1. Problem one was that the driver didn't work for my video card. So rather than use the s3 driver, I changed to "vesa". I'm such a newbie, I don't understand what I did, but the driver change worked... 2. Problem two is that the mouse wouldn't work. That's because I had my mouse configuration in the XF86Config all messed up. It was fixed when I ran the mouseconfig utility. Very nice, asks you the type of mouse, and creates the correct entry in XF86Config. One thing that I had to fix, though, was that it will ask you if your mouse is USB or PS/2. I have a USB connection into a KVM switch which goes to a PS/2 connection in my Linux box. What matters is the connection of your *box*. Found this info in the README.mouse that is part of the distibution. Here's what my mouse looked like after I fixed the above: > Section "InputDevice" > Identifier "Mouse0" > Driver "mouse" > Option "Device""/dev/mouse" #for PS/2, USB is #/dev/input/mice > Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" > #Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no" #something I read said this >should be #commented out, not "no" > Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" > EndSection MKB --- Mike Burba <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > All, > > Just installed RedHat 8.0 with the graphical install option, and at the completion of > the > install, the default config does not start xserver on my box.

[Newbie]Disable Port 32000+
How does one disable tcp access on ports at or about 32768? When I start X with startx, this port doesn't seem to be used, and the -nolisten tcp option makes sure that port 6000 isn't used either. However, when I use xdm, the -nolisten tcp option still turns off port 6000, but a netstat -ap shows that xsm is listening on port 32768 (or 32769, or something similar). I have DisplayManager.requestPort 0 in xdm-config, but it doesn't seem to work. I can't find anything in the xdm or xsm documentation that speaks to this - everything I have found suggests that -nolisten tcp ought to turn off remote access, and it does turn off port 6000, but not port 32768. I don't really want these ports turned on until I fully understand the security implications.

Greetings everyone, I have installed a fresh Slackware with Xfree 4.1.0.

I do not have an unusual setup, and it has worked before with the very same distro and the same installation config, so I am suspecting a config problem.If anyone can think of a config file/BIOS setting/whatever that I might be missing, I would deeply appreciate it.Even the tiniest tidbit of indormation is welcome, as I cannot think of anything anymore.

Try "apt-get install xfonts-base xfonts-100dpi xfonts-75dpi". That should install them. Even if you use xfs for fonts you need the font-files. > (**) Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" > (EE) xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open device /dev/input/mice > No such file or directory. > (EE) Configured Mouse: cannot open input device > (EE) PreInit failed for input device "Configured Mouse" > (II) UnloadModule: "mouse" this looks like you don't have any mouse configured? Don't you have one?

Re: [Newbie]Fatal error "no screens found" (video card SIS5513 ?)
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 It appears it's not picking up your card for whatever reason, I'm not sure. The actual error is no devices detected, towards the bottom before the no screens found. Try this under the device section: BusId "PCI:0:20:0" If that fails to work you might run lspci -v and look for your chip id, and add it as follows: ChipId "0x5159" Substitute the "0x5159" for your chip id number. Beyond that I'm at a loss. - -- Chuck Brewer -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE9vM6c4cYuSvLqsAoRAkBVAKCcWv0tvr3jzaObZL27BTw0RTX+PwCgtDbN GBYr2BvtcoEzBuQ0h3BOAK8= =/vHA -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Newbie mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie
