Re: XF86Config-4 for 266 MHz iMac

Hi Tara, in order to find the correct modeline for your monitor, xvidtune may help you (but you need at least something on your screen, even distorted, and a working mouse first). The problem with the mouse may come from your kernel not being correctly configured (it was my problem). I'm usi

I have woody installed on my 266MHz iMac and it's running great, except that I cannot for the life of me get XFree86 properly configured. I have done tons of reading and a fair amount of playing (dpkg-reconfigure, trying to compile Xautocfg, looking for precompleted files, etc.) but cannot get

Chris, you were right. It had nothing to do with my mouse. I changed my screen depth from 15 to 8 and that solved the issue. Thanks for steering me away from the mouse. -Steven --- Chris Tillman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Sat, Apr 13, 2002 at 07:06:45AM -0700, Steven > Tomcavage wrote: > >

7;s the issue, can it be fixed without buying a new mouse? I don't have USB ports and I'm guessing that I'd have to mail-order an ADB mouse. -Steven --- eric <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 13 April, 2002 00:58, Steven Tomcavage wrote: > > I've installed woody

I've installed woody on my PowerPC 6360 and I'm having trouble setting up my XF86Config-4 file. When I start X, I get the initial "grey" screen with the X-cursor in the middle, then X shuts down. Any ideas? I get a "Caught Signal 11. Server aborting" right after (or

Help please, I am trying to configure X for my ibook2. This is the little ibook, also known as ibook2001 and icebook. I know X can be configured because I had Yellowdog linux running just fine with kde and it was cool except I missed apt-get and all the wonders of debian. So I grabbed a recent
