Re: [XFree86] Problem with resolution
Hi device should probably be /dev/mouse. But as to the 800x600 problem: (II) TRIDENT(0): Clock range: 12.00 to 45.00 MHz (II) TRIDENT(0): Not using default mode 800x600 (bad mode clock/interlace/doublescan) (II) TRIDENT(0): Not using default mode 800x600 (bad mode clock/interlace/doublescan) (II) TRIDENT(0): Not using default mode 800x600 (bad mode clock/interlace/doublescan) It's looks like none of your 800x600 modes fall within the clock range. I'm not sure why that would happen because I clearly see modes builtin to the server (at least in 4.3 servers) that fall within that range. You most likely have bad modes in the XF86Config file. Here are some valid modes I generated with the gtf program that comes with XFree86. I don't have the prgram gtf. Is it important? # 800x600 @ 60.00 Hz (GTF) hsync: 37.32 kHz; pclk: 38.22 MHz Modeline 800x600_60.00 38.22 800 832 912 1024 600 601 604 622 -HSync +Vsync # 800x600 @ 69.00 Hz (GTF) hsync: 43.12 kHz; pclk: 44.85 MHz Modeline 800x600_69.00 44.85 800 840 920 1040 600 601 604 625 -HSync +Vsync The 60 Hz mode is close to the one builtin to the server. The 69 Hz one is about the highest refresh rate you can get and still keep within the video card's clock limits. Though things may look fuzzy up there and a 65 Hz mode like below might look better: # 800x600 @ 65.00 Hz (GTF) hsync: 40.49 kHz; pclk: 42.11 MHz Modeline 800x600_65.00 42.11 800 840 920 1040 600 601 604 623 -HSync +Vsync None of them is working, I still get the same error message (this is why I don't post my log file again). I really have no idea any more now. Thanks for your ideas. Stephan ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
Re: [XFree86] Problem with resolution
Hi all I have installed Xfree 4.1 and my graphics card is supported and also detected. I have got 1 MB videoram (yes, it's a very old card). The problem is that I would like to have 800x600 (as I had it before with 3.3.6) but there is an error message in the log file like: bad mode clock/interlace/doublescan and therefore 640x400 is used instead. What's the problem here?? Attached is my XFree86.0.log file, there are the error messages in it. Stephan This is a pre-release version of XFree86, and is not supported in any way.

Re: [XFree86] Problem with resolution
Hi have a look at the modeline for 800x600. I did notice the reporting of (II) TRIDENT(0): Clock range: 12.00 to 45.00 MHz. This seems like a small range to me, and perhaps the modeline has a clock higher than 45 MHz (most of Also to me this seems quite small.

Re: [XFree86] Problem starting self-compiled program
Hi all I still get this problem. X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation) Major opcode of failed request: 145 (XFree86-VidModeExtension) Minor opcode of failed request: 16 (XF86VidModeGetGamma) Serial number of failed request: 18 Current serial number in output stream: 18 Do you have: Load extmod in your Section Module of your XF86Config file? I didn't have this but I added it now. XFree86-VidModeExtension should show up in the extensions that xdpyinfo prints out. It was there already before I added Load extmod but I attach the output of xpdyinfo. I was thinking about it again and both programs I have probelms with are compiled using the SDL. Might this cause the problem? Thanks Stephan ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
Re: [XFree86] Problem starting self-compiled program
Hi I'm stumped. BadRequest should only be returned if your X-server doesn't support XF86VidModeGetGamma. XF86VidModeGetGamma has been supported for a long time (since the XFree86 3.9 days). Does xgamma work? That calls that function. If I call it user (the same who uses the Xserver) I get the following error message: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ xgamma Xserver is running an old XFree86-VidModeExtension version (0.8) Minimum required version is 2.0 It seems that this is the problem. What can I do against it? Thanks Stephan ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
[XFree86] Problem starting self-compiled program
Hello I read the documentation and have a slight idea now, but I still don't know what to do. My problem is that every time I try to start a self-compiled program I get the following error message: X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation) Major opcode of failed request: 145 (XFree86-VidModeExtension) Minor opcode of failed request: 16 (XF86VidModeGetGamma) Serial number of failed request: 18 Current serial number in output stream: 18 I am using XFree 4.1.0 in the Debian stable version. My graphics card is a Trident with 1024 kB RAM (yes such cards still work). I have no problems with the XServer as such and the installation was absolutely easy. If there is a hit where the RTFM is I am happy to read it there.
