[XFree86] trident driver won't work with TGUI 9680
I just installed RedHat 7.3 (with XFree 4.2.0-8) on an older machine. As I expected, XFree86 does not start with my Trident TGUI 9680 driver: the monitor clicks and the screen goes blank. I've had this problem before, it seems to be a bug in earlier versions of the driver and last time I fixed it by downloading the latest driver from Alan Hourihane's page. Well, it sure ain't working this time: * If I install the driver (trident_drv.o) only, I get an "ABI minor version (7) is newer than the server's version" error. * If I install the XFree86 binary too, I get a "Caught signal 11. Server aborting" error Is this a bug? Am I just stupid? Any fix appreciated! Lemme know if need further info. Sanyi
[XFree86] How to determine X version
Hi All, I have installed RedHat 7.3 on a PC with the following display card: Intel 82845/G GL When I start the computer I can use the GUI mode but if I logout, my screen is dark. Nothing to do. I press ctl+alt+F2 to get the command line. After that I cannot start GUI by pressing ctl+alt+F7 OR typing startx. The only option is to reboot the system. I tried Xconfigurator and changed the VGA driver with no luck. Only with VESA card I can use the X I think my X is giving problem. I am thinking to install latest X. How can know the version of the currently installed X?

They are so much slower than just typing for a lot of things ... and you have to think all the time about what you're doing with the mouse, rather than the actual task in hand ... Good for painting pictures or playing games ... bad for reading and writing email though :) Obviously, I like features like visible threading and so on - but the most important thing to me is rapid navigation and commands - using the keyboard.

[XFree86] problems running XFree86
I installed XFree86 with Debian 3.0 r1, so it's configured to start up automatically and I have no idea how to disable this in order to avoid being told, each time I start Linux, that XFree86 has failed to run. I downloaded and installed the then-latest version of XFree86 a couple of months ago; it's 4.3.0, released on February 27, 2003, but this did not fix the problem. The XFree86 log file says something about the primary display device having a PCI bus ID of 1:0:0, but it also says something about another device at location 1:0:1 that has no drivers, or something; I don't remember exactly what it says, but I'll attach a copy of the file anyway. Oddly enough, under Windows (I'm running a dual-boot system here) the Device Manager in the System control panel has two display adapters listed, although I only have one graphics card installed, a Radeon 9000 Pro with 64 MB VRAM from Gigabyte Technology. One is labeled R9000 and the other, Radeon 9000 / Radeon 9000 PRO. At some point I disabled the latter with the device manager, causing no problems whatsoever: everything seemed to work properly, and in spite of this, Linux has a problem with some device at location 1:0:1, the address of the adapter labeled Radeon 9000 / Radeon 9000 PRO in Windows (the one labeled R9000 has location 1:0:0). I have no idea if it's useful information, but I'll list the so-called resource settings of each "adapter" as given by the Device Manager: R9000: Memory Ranges F800 - FBFF, E780 - E780, 000A - 000B I/O Ranges D800 - D8FF, 03B0 - 03BB, 03C0 - 03DF IRQ 16 Radeon 9000 / Radeon 9000 PRO: Memory Ranges F400 - F7FF, E7FF - E7FF no I/O Ranges or IRQ listed If you could offer any insight as to what the problem is I would be most appreciative. -Thomas

I can't say for sure if it's possible to get it to work any other way. It *might* work with the "nv" driver that comes with XFree86 4.2 (your version) if you have one of the older GeForce4 MX cards. But, at a minimum you're going to need to modify the XF86Config file. Note, that root can start the server with an alternate XF86Config file from the command line. eg.: startx -- -xf86config /root/XF86Config.new Mark. ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

[XFree86] Bad Mistake
Aloha again, With some welcome help from several folks in this group I was successful in getting my new Linux box (with Asus P4P800 board and Nvidia GEFORCE-FX video card) up and working perfectly. The startx command brought up the GNOME desktop and all was well - Then I made a very bad decision - I downloaded 'Yahoo Messenger' for RH8 from the Yahoo site, while in my root account in RH9! Yes I know this was really dumb. The next day and evry day since, every time I type in 'startx' while in 'root' I get no gui but rather a notice -- "waiting for X server to shut down". Also get instructions to look at /var/log/X11/XF86Config and /etc/X11/XF86Config. I can find no errors listed and everything looks normal. The GOOD news is that when I set up a new user account for myself everything works great. (I have Not downloaded 'ymessenger' again.) I did remove all references to 'ymessenger' in root - ls and others in /usr. But still I can not get the gui to come up with startx from root and continue to get the "waiting for... etc. page. Anyone know how I can get my root account back to normal? I am willing to suffer a few 'slings and arrows' for my poor decision making in the process of getting some help.

Ang: [XFree86] Mouse Problems, II
Hi! Take away Option "CorePointer" from the mouse0input sectction. And change this lineScreen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 to Screen "Screen0" 0 0 Is it a scrollmouse? If yes: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" Option "Buttons" "5" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection If no: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "PS/2" Option "Buttons" "3" # number of buttons Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false" # If only 2 buttons true, if 3 buttons false EndSection You could also try the savage module for XFree instead of the vesa module. Change Driver "savage" in the device section for Card0. also run 'lspci' and see what the pciid is for you card. I hope this can help! Svein Erik >>> Richard F Freund <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 18/09 7:42 >>> XFree Folks, I am currenlyt having some X-based mouse problems. Svein Erik Kro had a couple preliminary suggestions, but reminded me that I should send the relevant files (which are now attached). To recap: a. I have been using 4.3 with Debian Woody for months now without any problems. b. A few days ago, I started to have two problems: - my color depth was only 8 bits, so I added an Option to the config file to specify 16 as default and this solved that problem - mouse problems. Depending on various settings in the InputDevice section, my mouse either does not respond or is super-accelerated. In either case, it is unusable. The settings I have in the attached config file cause the superaccelerated mouse (also constantly opening/closing menus/panels). Besides the two attached files, you need to know that I have a soft link /dev/mouse -> dev/psaux One other thing, xset q reports 'unable to open display'. Your comments greatly appreciated.
