RE: [XFree86] help
Hello,
You are more likely to get help if you also include a description of
what's wrong. And what distro and version of Linux and Xfree you are using
just for clarity's sake. Maybe what kind of hardware too. :) (For example,
your video card could be considered germane.)
Everything was looking good (to me at least) until here. Maybe you clock
settings. Or your sync settings. Perhaps these are being read automatically
and that's not working properly.

I've seen this in quite a few of these messages in Red Hat XFree logs (might
even be specific to Nvidia drivers), there -may- be a FAQ about it on the
XFree86 website. (http://www.xfree86.org/support.html) Unfortunately I don't
know what the error message signifies, but it's a good place to start
looking. ("could not open default font 'fixed'", maybe add a comma and "Red
Hat 8.0" or whatever your version is.) You can use Google to search the
site, just go to the Advanced Search Options and set the Domain Option (in
the first block of options towards the bottom) to only search
http://www.xfree86.org/.
Also, if you're not already subscribed to the Xfree mailing list you may
want to as that is where most of the help actually takes place.

Your monitor specs are entered incorrectly in your XF86Config file. According to your monitor's EDID you should have: VertRefresh 50 - 160 And I'm guessing HorizSync should be about 30 - 100, but that's only guessing. Your monitor manual will tell you for sure.

I assume it works if you run as root? If so, this is probably not the *correct* solution, but it should work.

(See http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ) This is an important message above: you are about 18 months out of date with the version of XFree86 that you're trying to run and shouldn't report a problem until you've upgraded to XFree86-4.3.X However it looks as though you're running a kernel that came from Mandrake?

It looks like that's not your problem anyhow. You might want to look into upgrading your XFree86 version (4.3 is the newest).

(EE) VGA(0): Given depth (16) is not supported by this driver. (II) UnloadModule: "vga" (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.

While you don't actually need these extensions, it indicates that you likely have other problems with your system. You may be able to reinstall the XFree86 packages (rpm, .deb, whatever) that included them. ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

Re: [XFree86] Help
I think first off you want to be using the native Matrox driver instead of the generic Vesa driver like you are doing currently. In the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file, replace Driver "vesa" with Driver "mga". If problems persist, try using the xtt font module instead of freetype. That is, in the XF86Config file replace Load "freetype" with Load "xtt". Mark. On Wed, 25 Aug 2004, [iso-8859-1] Carlos Pineda wrote: > I am sorry, i thought that i had send you the log > file.

At least on mine, the 1:0:1 is not a real device, but represents the second head on my radeon card. I read somewhere that this is for Windows for some reason.

Does this exist? Usually this is a symbolic link to the *real* device, which in the case of a PS/2 mouse would normally be /dev/psaux (although, if it's a usb mouse it could be /dev/input/mice or /dev/input/mouse0). Possible actions to take: 1) Check to see if the /dev/mouse device is actually there. If not, and you *know* what the *real* device name is, then make the link yourself. 2) Change the X config file to use the *real* device name.

Looks like you've compiled a rather old version of XFree86 with a rather new version of gcc. My guess is you've compiled XFree86 4.1.0 with gcc 3.0 or newer. New versions of gcc, in particular gcc 2.96rh, and gcc 3.0 and higher contain an optimization called merge-constants, which is enabled by default. The X server ELF module loader does not like the new ELF sections that this optimization puts in the modules, and causes it to explode with the errors you see above. To work around this issue, the X modules must be compiled with -fno-merge-constants. Doing this in XFree86 4.1.0 is a bit of an ugly hack, so I wouldn't recommend it. XFree86 4.2.0 and later will autodetect the version of gcc during build time and will make sure the modules are built correctly without extra effort. Hope this helps. -- Mike A.

Re: [XFree86] Help me!
The people at [EMAIL PROTECTED] need just a _little_ more information about your setup. For instance, what ATI card are you using? If it's a Radeon, which one? 9000? 7500? 8500? VE? Please be sure to give the exact model number. Then, which XFree86 server version are you using? This can be tricky to tell most times, but it's safe to assume that it's one of the 4.X servers. It might be easier to tell us if you're using a particular distribution and version of that distribution. For instance, you might say that you are having trouble getting your ATI Radeon 9000 to work on Redhat 8.0 (I pulled this straight out of the air.) From that, they would know what card you are using, and they could even make a good guess as to what server you're using. Even then, they might need to know exactly what problems you're having (problems related to 2-D? 3-D?), but you would have given them more to work with so that they could possibly tell you right away something like "Oh, yeah, we're still working on that. It doesn't work at all right now."

Re: [XFree86] Help Required.
Use NVIDIA's driver, while not being open source(bad), it does provide a much higher frame rate than the xfree driver(good). The driver is available on NVIDIA's website along with fairly simple install instructions. Remeber to download both the kernel module(NVIDIA_kernel) and the xfree86 glx module(NVIDIA_GLX). It should work with your current xfree install. Remeber this is only an alternative to upgrading xfree and using the newer nv driver. Maybe someday nvidia will release the source for the drivers. Reality is but a brief respite between my fantasies. -unknown
Re: [XFree86] Help NVIDIA!!
If you remove NVIDIA's drivers the /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libglx.a from Mesa will get used (instead of the libglx.so of NVIDIA). This is all in software, however, and very slow. NVIDIA's binary drivers should have worked, however. I think with some kernels you need to pass "nopentium" and "noapic" options to the kernel. And of course, you'd want to be using the latest (4496) drivers. Mark.

I attach the err.log file. I think I see the problem in the following lines from your log file: (--) PCI:*(1:0:0) ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 75 00] rev 0, Mem @ 0xe000/27, 0xc010/16, I/O @ 0x3000/8 (II) I810: Driver for Intel Integrated Graphics Chipsets: i810, i810-dc100, i810e, i815, i830M, 845G, 852GM/855GM, 865G (II) Primary Device is: PCI 01:00:0 (EE) No devices detected. I think what is happening is you configured XFree86 to use an Intel driver when you needed to configure it to use the radeon driver. If you edit the Driver line under the Device section of your /etc/X11/XF86Config and make it look something like: Section "Device" ...[Other stuff here]... Driver "radeon" ...[Other stuff here]...

In the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file, replace Driver "vga" with Driver "sis". You are currently using the basic vga (ie. 640x480 in 16 colors) driver rather than the native SiS driver. Mark.

Re: [XFree86] help me
Your XFree86 version (4.2.0) predates your video card and is too old to support it. You have two options: update to XFree86 4.4.0 or newer which comes with an XFree86-supported driver that works with that card, or use NVIDIA's binary Linux driver from NVIDIA's web site. The later is supported by NVIDIA directly and should work with your current X-server. MArk. On Sun, 19 Jun 2005, daniele wrote: > I can't start the graphical server with Red Hat Linux 8.0.

Re: [XFree86] Help Installing
Hi Tad, Good to hear you got X running. Your friend is right in some respect - XFree86 is not a GUI or as they are generally known as in Linux - a Window Manager. KDE is a window manager but it requires XFree86 to run since KDE (like every other Window Manager) is not able to access the your computer's hardware directly. Therefore, XFree86 provides access to your display and control hardware (mouse, keyboard, video card, etc) whilst a window manager is responsible for organising how your windows / programs are displayed. Coming from a Microsoft Windows or MacOS perspective I can understand this may be a little daunting but once you get used to the concept it's not that difficult. Now, since you appear to be quite new I'd suggest you install both KDM and KDE. KDM is a graphical login manager, and can be configured to load X automatically when you boot. Once you login using KDM, it will automatically start your default window manager (which should be KDE). To do this from the linux console type the following as root or a superuser ( means to hit the ENTER key): apt-get update apt-get install kde kdm Be aware, KDE is quite big so it could take some time to get the packages if your internet connection is slow. It's well worth it though since it's quite easy to use. Make sure you choose KDM as the default display manager when prompted by the configuration process. Also, a couple of tips. If you ever need to quit X and don't know how (i.e. you've just got a screen and no mouse pointer or something has gone wrong with your window manager) you can force it to quit by pressing the CONTROL, ALT, and BACKSPACE keys all together. If you started X from the command line, you'll be dropped back there or if it was started by KDM, a new copy should be started for you. Secondly, you can always get back to a console by pressing CONTROL, ALT, and together - where is either the F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, or F6 key. After you've finished with the console and if X is still running you can get back to it by pressing CONTROL, ALT and F7 together. Anyway, I hope that helps you a little, feel free to repost if you need more help. Cheers, Lance Tad Dixon wrote: I figured out how to run those commands.
