Hi -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- I've installed 4.3.0 now and select a ati driver. There are lots of Radeon Drivers that are not supported by the ati driver. Which card do you have? You best check http://www.ati.com/support/driver.html There you find everything you need from 4.1 -4.3 HTH Regards gebhard ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
AW: [XFree86] server error
Hi, -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- , or I'm not giving you enough information, but if you have any idea how I can fix it, please email me back. what we need to know is: what graphic card and which xfree-version (You probably know what Mandrake 9.2 brings with it) Otherwise you have to check the log. Since you have no GUI you´ll need an Editor like ed (see http://www.delorie.com/gnu/docs/ed/ed_1.html for help) type: ed /var/log/XFree86.log 1,5n will show you the first 5 lines where you should find your xfree-version (or type: g/4.[1-3].0/ which should do that) type: q for quit Look at http://www.xfree86.org/support.html and choose your appropriate xfree-documentation. Then click on your video card and check, if your chip is supported But since I don´t know Mandrake I cannot say how to configure X then.

You don´t get a message like 'no screens found' or 'screens found but none of them have a usable configuration'? Please send your XF86.config and XFree86.0.log. In the latter you can also check your xfree86 version and then have a look at http://www.xfree86.org/current/Status.html to see if your graphic card is supported.

AW: [XFree86] Still cannot get startx/kde to start... ...
Dear Chrissy, sorry for late answer. please send /var/log/XFree86.0.log and version-no. of xfree86 (Woody should provide 4.1.0, I suppose). http://www.xfree86.org/current/Status18.html#18 says that Millenium II is only supported by 3.3.6 and 4.3.0, but http://www.xfree86.org/4.1.0/mga.4.html lists MGA2164W Millennium II as well (don´t understand that). Anyway, 3.3.6 should be on your debian cd-rom. So check out typing at the command line: apt-get install xserver-mga (or mga2164w) or dpkg-reconfigure xserver-mga If that doesn´t work, try Vesa. But Vesa is a generic driver. You probably can only use 256 colors, 800x600 resolution etc. For further details please look at http://osr5doc.ca.caldera.com:457/VidConfigG/XvidD.svga_vesa.html Good luck and regards Gebhard Dettmar p.s. please send messages as plain text.

AW: [XFree86] Samsung Samtron 56V Monitor Display Problem
In your log stands: (EE) VGA(0): Driver can't support depth 24 You should set ist to 8 (running dpkg-reconfigure) Also you should look, if vga is the appropriate server for your card (on xfree/support. On http://www.xfree86.org/4.1.0/vga.4.html you read, that: vga is an XFree86 driver for generic VGA video cards. It can drive most VGA-compatible video cards, but only makes use of the basic standard VGA core that is common to these cards. The driver supports depths 1, 4 and 8. All relevant visual types are supported at each depth. Multi-head configurations are supported in combination with some other drivers, but only when the vga driver is driving the primary head. What video card do you have? According to your card you can look in http://www.xfree86.org/4.1.0/manindex4.html which server to use.

[XFree86] Xfree86_3.3.6 vs. 4.3.0 to get s3-module
Title: Xfree86_3.3.6 vs. 4.3.0 to get s3-module Hello everybody, I´m a newby so forgive me if I ask stupid questions. I have debian woody with xfree86 version 4.1.0 and S3 Trio V64+ graphic card (765 Chip) on a Pentium I Board. Unfortunately, version 4.1.0 only supports savage and virge, which means I have either to upgrade to 4.3.0 or downgrade to 3.3.6 to get the s3 module. Which alternative would you prefer? However, is there any difference, since I just need the s3 module? When I run the PreInstall-script of 3.3.6, what will happen if I have a newer glibc version than this script assumes? I mean downgrading makes me a bit suspicious. Thanks in advance and regards gebhard
