In 2000, you need to open the display properties, select the right-most
tab ("Settings"), click on "advanced", select "monitor" and select a
different monitor than "generic" or "pnp", such as "legacy" or
"standard". (I only have a swedish version of Windows 2000 running under
vmware here, so the actual wording of the buttons/tabs may not be exact.)
In the area below, you can choose a fixed vertical refresh rate.
By a really strange coincidence, ever since I converted to 4.4 I’ve been fascinated by
what I perceived to be the impossibility of fixing the video driver parameters in _Linux_.
(that was before I discovered the subject problem with Windows).
Thomas, I sent you an E-mail to this effect at the time, probably lost in the cyber fog. I
never expected to be so fortunate to meet you here in this forum, so I’m now taking
the liberty of reproducing in full, unedited, the letter (and the questions included therein,
at the end) below, so you can comment.
The E-mail is dated Aug 25, 2004.
My appologies, but please understand that I am a developer, no call
center. My impression was that you had either config problems or
theoretical questions, both not specifically related to my driver. In
such cases I take the liberty of not responding to each and every mail I

Subject: XF86Config Mode Questions
Dear Dr. Winischhofer,
First and foremost, many thanks for your excellent Linux SiS drivers.
I have an ASUS machine (P4S533-MX) with SiS651 as North Bridge.
I worked with your 4.2 driver (on 2.6.7) and now I'm happily stable on 4.4 and
2.6.8.1.
Also, your Linux/SiS/vga page is absolutely impressive! Good to know there are
still professionals around!
Everything is AOK; however, I'm a little confused about how XFree86 and your
SiS driver handle the "modes" feature.
I'd very much appreciate if you can clear me up on a few questions below (at
your leisure, of course - as I said, everything is just fine, SiS driver-wise).
--
In my '/etc/X11/XF86Config' file there are only two "modes" lines,
one a comment:
# Default "1024x768": 94.5 MHz (Dot Clock), 68.7 kHz (Horiz.), 85 Hz (refresh)
and the other one the "main" line:
ModeLine "1024x768" 94.50 1024 1072 1168 1376 768 769 772 808 +hsync +vsync

Maybe 75dpi or 100dpi. Look at all the subdirs (and if this fails, all other places where you have fonts installed) and scan the contents of fonts.dir file. This file contains the font names, sizes and other such information for the files in the relevant directory. Somewhere you should find information about the font "fixed". Just add that directory to the list (FontPath "/some/directory") In the other case, X gets all of its fonts from a font server, which is entirely different piece of software. It is most probably called xfs and its config file should be somewhere in /etc/X11 - maybe /etc/X11/xfs/xfs.conf or similar. The file syntax is a little bit different, but the idea is the same - find the place on your hard disk, where the fixed font actually is (/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc/ in teh case of Debian) and add that directory to the list.

[XFree86] Losing resources on Geode processor.
We are using XFree 4.4.0 on a system with a 300MHz Geode GX1 processor and the CS5530A companion chip. We have written a small application using Borland's Kylix which draws five bar charts which are updated every second. The program runs fine BUT its using 70% of CPU time to keep the display updated. (The numbers fed to the charts are generated by the program, there is no external factor influencing the generation of these numbers). If we run the same program (re-compiled) on the same hardware running Micro$oft Windoze 98 the program uses about 10% CPU time. The LINUX version of the program running on a 400MHz EDEN processor with a Savage graphics chip takes less than 1% of CPU time. Is it just that the geode driver is not very good or is there some other problem. If windoze drivers can draw the charts quick enough why cant the xfree drivers do the same thing.

[XFree86] X terminal keyboard problem
Hi,
I helped a local school set up a Linux computer lab with X terminals.
Everything is working fine but for one thing: changing keyboard layouts
(I need ee and ru) does not work. In fact, even the keyboard layout
specified in the XF86Config file does not work (falls back to pre XKB
keymap).
The terminals mount / and /usr from a server. I have checked an double
checked, and /usr/X11R6/lib/xkb and related directories (in Debian they
are symlinked to /etc/X11) are visible in the terminal filesystem.
X is version 4.3 and the system is Debian unstable.
Here are some symptoms:
* (run from X client side) setxkbmap ee fails to load the new keymap
with an error along the lines of "Failed to load new keymap"
* (run from X client side) setxkbmap ee -print | xkbcomp -
192.168.0.222:0 however works
* (run from X client side) running setxkbmap -print produces this:
xkb_keymap {
xkb_keycodes { include "xfree86+aliases(qwerty)" };
xkb_types { include "complete" };
xkb_compat{ include "complete" };
xkb_symbols { include "pc/pc(pc105)+pc/ee"};
xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc105)" };
};
which is strange because it claims using an Estonian layout while in
fact it is not (fell back to US)
* running xkbcomp from the terminal (X server side) also works
* XKB extension is loaded (at least the log file says so)
I am very much out of ideas and would be very happy if someone could
offer something to try.
Thank you,
L.

[XFree86] could not open default font 'fixed'
Hi good people, I messed up something in my fonts directories, and now I can't run KDE anymore, not even the graphical login prompt works. I'm on Mandrake 10.0. This is what I get: Fatal Server Error: Could not open default font 'fixed' I have googled a bit but without finding something useful. What do I need to do to reinstall my fonts (if that's what I need to do)?? /Mattias ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

Re: [XFree86] "AllowMouseOpenFail" does not work?
Hi, Vivek thanks for reply. I am not sure if I understood your idea correctly. Do you mean having a mouse is a prerequisite to having a keyboard in starting X window? This can't be the situation of mine because the "AllowMouseOpenFail" option didnot work wether with or without a keyboard. I guess I'd better provide more information of the system: *XFree86 4.3.0 compiled from source code from official xfree86.org ftp *glibc 2.2.5 *kernel 2.4.22 thanks David -- Original Message -- From: Vivek Dasmohapatra <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Tue, 21 Sep 2004 11:32:18 +0100 >On Tue, Sep 21, 2004 at 06:19:57PM +0800, David Sun wrote: > >> Could any body tell me what's possibly the reason of the >> "AllowMouseOpenFail" failure? > >What is happening here (I am informed) is that X is waiting to see >some mouse input before noticing the keyboard.

What is happening here (I am informed) is that X is waiting to see some mouse input before noticing the keyboard. It's really annoying, but recent X seems to suffer from this. When I last checked (which was admittedly a long time ago) allowmouseopenfail was necessary top allow X to start _at all_ if it couldn't open the configured mouse device. ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
[XFree86] "AllowMouseOpenFail" does not work?
Hi, all sorry to put a weird question (at least i think so) here: question in a word: even with the "AllowMouseOpenFail" option, XFree86 can not successfully startup without keyboard/mouse detailed question: I'm working on a Linux-on-256M-CF-card with touch screen, X window works fine. then I would like to use only the touch screen as input device, so I add the "AllowMouseOpenFail" option in XF86Config file, then unplugged my mouse, reboot the system,(without keyboard operation has been successfully tried) but every time I try to startx, the system will hang, keyboard hit unresponded, ping&telnet from other host unanswered. Could any body tell me what's possibly the reason of the "AllowMouseOpenFail" failure? I have walked through XFree86.0.log, finding no explicit warning or error complaining about absence of a mouse, so this log file isn't attached. If anyone think it valuable, I can post it. thanks in advance David ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
Re: [XFree86] Monitor/Driver Problem
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thank you very much for your prompt comments and help. For the record – The monitor is always fully shut off, whether between a switch from Linux to Windows or just before a boot up on Windows. This eliminates the possibility that the monitor (if OK) might not present the proper DDC1 info to Windows. As I mentioned, the only time the problem doesn’t show up is when I leave the monitor off until after Windows has been fully up (thus “simulating” the “switching off of monitor detection in Windows” the hard way.) This raises a few new questions: 1. Is it possible that the Linux driver, once it gets (and maybe stores) the correct info from the monitor on first install, it no longer cares what happens afterwards, while Windows keeps inquiring the now wrong DDC1 data on any boot up? The DDC spec says that as soon as a device is switched to DDC2, it has to stay in this mode until it is switched off. Since your monitor is off, I don't see a connection. (And no driver can switch it back to DDC1, nor "program" or "restore" anything.) Besides, I have no clue about the Windows driver's internals, ie when and how often it queries the monitor for DDC data. > In other words, is it possible that the monitor is now defective (DDC1-wise) with Linux not noticing anything? No. 2. I do not know a way to “switch off the monitor detection in Windows and use a fixed rate there”. I’d appreciate a pointer from you here (even if it might include messing up with system registry). Haven't been using Windows for ages, but I guess you'll find this in the Display properties somewhere. 3. When you say “But then again, this is SiS... you never know...”, I detect a certain unhappiness with SiS651 on your part. Do you think my spending some money on a video card (with a different chip, of course) would fix this annoying problem for sure? Sorry, no idea. (But it is certainly not the "chip's" problem, more a driver problem on the Windows side here.)
