Re: [XFree86] no screens found !!!
The logfile implies that the XF86Config-4 file is configured to use a framebuffer device (Driver "fbdev"), however, the kernel does not support (or no longer supports) a framebuffer device. You might want to try changing to the i810 driver (Driver "i810" in the Section "Device" in the XF86Config-4 file). The i810 driver that comes with your server version *might* be new enough to support your graphics card. It seems that either your kernel supported a framebuffer device and no longer does after your unclean shutdown, or the XF86Config-4 file got changed to use fbdev since the last time it was working.

I was going to suggest trying to get a copy of the kernel source of the kernel that you're running and build a agpgart.o module, but it looks like you're running 2.2.17, which is pretty ancient. It may work, though if you get a copy of the kernel source for 2.2.17 and configure it to build agpgart support and then build it but only copy out the agpgart.o module. One problem /might/ be that it looks like your build kernel (2.4.x) is pretty significantly different from your running kernel (2.2.x). It might be that XFree86 configured itself for features present on a 2.4 kernel and is now confused by the difference of the 2.2 kernel. Maybe if you rebuild on 2.2.17? And install a agpgart.o module? This sounds like a crazy project, but I understand that it's sometimes necessary and I hope it works out well for you. -Andy ___ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@XFree86.Org http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

I have a few questions for you. Have you configured XFree86 yet? http://xfree86.linuxwiki.org/FAQMiscellaneous#head-91ac81654e284e4b03ba61cff83886b90fdf6570 If you have, where did you put the XF86Config file? It is often placed here, "/etc/X11/XF86Config" and it sometimes has a different name, XF86Config-4. Finally, do you have the permissions set correctly on both the file itself and the directory? You will need to be able to have read permissions. Permissions are set using the chmod command.

I'm on thin ice here, as I have no experience with your setup, but my guess is that since you didn't set up the TV, nor told X that it should use different settings for the two display outputs, it autodetects (through DDC) the ranges, and takes the lowest one (the one for your TV). Disconnect the TV to see if your problems disappear. If so: properly set up the two displays, or else you may be damaging your TV when you have it display an out of range signal.

Usually, but not always, that error means that your video card is too new to be supported by the XFree86 version you have. We need to see your /var/log/XFree86.0.log file to be sure because there could be other causes of that error.

Thanks > > You've got problems with your config file. 1) You are using the "nv" driver that comes with XFree86 but you are trying to load the glx module from NVIDIA's binary release (and an old one at that). Remove /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libglx.so so that it will use the one from Mesa that comes with XFree86 instead. 2) You've specified Option "UseFBDev" "true" indicating that a framebuffer device should be used to setup the card rather than letting the "nv" driver do it, yet you don't have a framebuffer device in your kernel (I wouldn't recommend it either). Remove the UseFBDev option. Alternatively, you could install the binary drivers from NVIDIA's web site. I'd recommend version 3123 because 4191 had some problems.

The automatic detection of the capabilities of the LCD panel doesn't work correctly. Which means that you need to specify this in the configuration file for this to work. In /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, in the "Monitor" section try to specify something like this (taken from my config file here on my Inspiron 8000 with M4 and 1400x1050 panel :)/ You need to fuzz it into the structure in your own configuration file, the important part is specifying something sensible for VertRefresh and HorizSync: Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" VendorName "Monitor Vendor" ModelName"Monitor Model" VertRefresh 40-110 HorizSync 28-90 Option "DPMS" Modeline "1400x1050" 107.85 1400 1450 1500 1999 1050 1058 1070 1150 EndSection The 1400x1050 modeline is probably redundant now, when I first set this up almost two years ago it was needed. :) -Harald -- Harald Nordgård-Hansen, Linpro AS <>< http://www.linpro.no/~hnh/ PB. 375, N-1601 Fredrikstad, NorwayPhone/Fax: +47 6935 2424/25 ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
