[Newbie]60 second delay

[Newbie]60 Second Delay

Apparently it was a hardware problem. I substituted an AGP SiS 305 card, redid xf86config, and now it runs fine. I have an SiS 305 but I am using the lesser SiS 6326 driver. Does any one know if there is a driver for SiS 305 and what it is called? Thanks for all the replies. John Culleton

Re: [Newbie]System hangs sometimes when switching resolution with Trident Blade3D

quared away for it then all my problems disappeared. So I don't know what the problem is but the solution is--use a different card. Truly that ought not be the situation. But apparently it is. John Culleton -- Able Indexers and Typesetters http://wexfordpress.com ___
