  I added support for PCI ID 0x0171 "GeForce4 MX 440" on 2001/10/01.
It can't possibly work with 4.1.0, which was released earlier in the
year.  While 0x0171 recognition was in 4.2.0, I only had prelease
boards to run with it.  I know that many modern NV17 boards (maybe most)
do not work with 4.2.0.  Everything should work fine in CVS.  The
"nv" driver doesn't officially support NV17 until after 4.2.0.

Relatively new? - just use the nv driver

I attach my XF86Config if you want to use it (I have a 440mx as well)

It has worked with 4.1 4.2 and cvs - havn't checked 4.0.2 but the nv
driver has been around a while

 This card is relatively new and there has been no official XFree86 release
since that card has come out so there is no official release supporting
it (certainly not 4.0.2 which is two years old).  You either have
to build XFree86 from CVS or install the binary drivers from nvidia's
web site, or *maybe* replacing the /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/nv_drv.o
with the one on my web page http://www.xfree86.org/~mvojkovi/nv_drv.o
will work if you start the server with the -ignoreABI option (ie.
"startx -- -ignoreABI") - that certainly works with 4.2.0, but I don't
know about 4.0.2.

[Xpert]Nvidia GEForce4 Mx440

2002-11-23 Thread George Gopie



I have installed Linux Red Hat Advanced Server 
2.4.9-e.3 on my intel server with a 64MB nvidia #DGeForce4 Mx440 series  
video card. I am unable to get it to work with X. I have down loaded XFRee86 
4.0.2  and installed it., but when I try to start the configuration with 
XFree86  -configure i get that the Following:
Fatal Server error:
XFree86 has found a valid card 
configuration.
Unfortunately the appropriate data has not been 
added to the xf86PciInfo.h.
 
Can someone help.
