Re: [XFree86] Mandrake 10 Install
I don't known whether this is still the case: there used to be a logic in the madness: X 4.x would first look for a config file in a file given in the command line if not found then (I believe, not sure anymore) in the home directory, then in /etc/X11 for XF86Config-4, if this did not exist for XF86Config. If you already have an XF86Config-4 and make your changes in XF86Config then you are out of luck...

[XFree86] can't open X from a terminal.
Hello there, I am able to run the X from the Linux machine itself (I am using Redhat Enterprise Linux Advanced Server 2.1) but not from the remote machines. I am using a software called "X-manager" from the remote machine. I can work with the Linux server from the remote machine in text mode. Also I am able to run X applications like for example "xclock" from the remote machine. But I can't run "startx". The error message when I tried to run "startx" command is below: - Fatal Server error: PAM authentication failed, cannot start X server. Perhaps you do not have console ownership? giving up. xinit: No such file or directory (errorno 2): unable to connect to X server xinit: No such process (errorno 3): Server error. --- Eagerly waiting for your kind suggestions.

I'm on thin ice here, as I have no experience with your setup, but my guess is that since you didn't set up the TV, nor told X that it should use different settings for the two display outputs, it autodetects (through DDC) the ranges, and takes the lowest one (the one for your TV). Disconnect the TV to see if your problems disappear. If so: properly set up the two displays, or else you may be damaging your TV when you have it display an out of range signal.

Re: [XFree86] No Screens Found, Problem with Setup
Well yes I have a TV attached also. But I was just trying to get the Monitor working first before I tried the TV. I thought I told it to use the View Port for the monitor. - Original Message - From: "Pieter Hulshoff" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: "Patrick Hampton" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, March 14, 2004 3:49 AM Subject: Re: [XFree86] No Screens Found, Problem with Setup > On Sunday 14 March 2004 01:46, Patrick Hampton wrote: > > I have been having problems setting up my X configuration file.

Hmmm, with a 10 year old monitor I don't know if I'd be willing to chance the trial and error method of increasing your range. You might damage it if you force it beyond spec. > I dno;t know why XFree86Config says it is using VESA drivers ... i > How can i make it use ATI drivers? This should help a bit: http://www2.ati.com/drivers/firegl/readme0325.txt although RH might have a better installation guide for you somewhere. If you don't need 3D you might also consider using the radeon drivers. Just replace the vesa driver with radeon in your Device Section. Mine for instance reads: Section "Device" BoardName"RV250 If" BusID"1:0:0" Driver "radeon" Identifier "Device[0]" Screen 0 VendorName "ATI" Option "AGPMode" "4" Option "AGPFastWrite" "True" EndSection and I use a radeon AIW 9000 card. Considering this line in your logfile: (--) PCI:*(1:0:0) ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R200 QL [Radeon 8500 LE] you may have to change the BoardName to R200 QL, and perhaps not use the options I do (depending on your card). Hope this helps. Regards, Pieter Hulshoff ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
Re: [XFree86] Problems After Upgrade to 4.4
Newbie myself, I'm not sure I can help. But I can share! I also went to 4.4.0 quite fast because of res./color problems with my Intel chipset (laptop). Tne install went well but I kept on getting error messages of various natures (fontpath, etc...). So, my experience is 1- When you get to that screen type exit at the prompt and it'l tell you what caused the server to crash 2- 4.4.0, as I understand changes directories from 1 location to another and rewrites links but and it seems that a bunch of those get forgotten in the process. 3- On Mandrake 9.2 (mine) the config file is XF86Config-4 and 4.4.0 seems to be creating a XF86Config, which seems to bring some confusion to the loading process. 4- I noticed that I was getting better results by running 'xf86config' after the install. 5- Eventually, I reverted to the older version, 'cause I don't have the experience to correct/rewrite all that needs to be done to have 4.4.0 work on my Mdrk 9.2.

Re: [XFree86] Slackware Screee Resolution Problems
My monitor is a 10yr old Hitachi 20" ... no, I am not crawling round the back of it to look for model numbers (not just yet ...). I dno;t know why XFree86Config says it is using VESA drivers ... i downloaded and installed the ATI rpm (rpm2tgz, installpkg), and thougth that would do it. Being pretty new to this "Linux" stuff, i am struggling to underdstand what is happening. How can i make it use ATI drivers?

Is 50 MHz really the maximum your 20" monitor can do? Btw, where are your modelines defined, or are you just using the default ones?

[XFree86] Problems After Upgrade to 4.4
I jumped into the upgrade with both feet without taking the time to really understand what I was doing and now can’t seem to get to my Gnome desktop. I am new to Linux and haven’t quite got the startup process figured out. My problem is I now boot into a light green low resolution screen with what looks to be a rectangular menu bar and a terminal screen. So I now wonder what I did (I accepted the default install prompts) and how I can get back to my normal desktop. I have an AMD64 machine with an ATI RADEON 9600 graphics card (the reason I upgraded to 4.4). Anyone know how to get back to my Gnome desktop on startup? Thanks, Richard
