Mark -- 

i installed a Radeon 9K, it seems that completely fixed the video problem.
FYI -- this is a Dell Precision 410 WS, two 450MHz cpus, 512MB DRam,
Quantum Viking 10K (9GB) drive.  the Dell box will only support 2x AGP,
but that's okay for now.

i have a few small issues with RH9 installation, and am pursuing that 
through usenet.

thanks for the help.

   Intergraph did high end PC workstation cards before 3Dlabs bought
them years ago.  I don't believe XFree86 ever supported any of
their cards natively, though it looks like there's a cheap cirrus logic
chip on the board for VGA compatibility.  You can probably get that
working with some low resolution 8 bit modes using the CIRRUS driver
(try 800x600 in 8 bits per pixel), but that's about it.

   Really you're probably better off getting a newer video card.
While that card was probably pretty hot in its day, it's not likely
to hold up too well against modern video cards.  www.xig.com might
have a commercial X-server that still supports this card, but I
suspect that for the cost of a commercial X-server you could buy a
card that's faster than the 3410T and is supported by XFree86.

Mark.

[XFree86] Linux 9 and video card

2003-06-10 Thread jmw
hi --

i successfully installed Linux 9 on my Dell Precision 410 WS, and it seems 
that everything works except Graphics mode.  a copy of the log is attached.  
from that, it seems that Linux cannot recognize the card.  Linux was installed 
on its own disk.  am i reading the log correctly? can you offer any suggestions?

the video card is Integraph Intense 3D 3410T Pro, 16MB ram.
