Hi all,
In a thread yesterday I went (with much help) to some extraordinary
lengths to get the prosavage card to work with rh9.
I've done it now: Here's how:
* If you can't even get a graphical install (like me) then at the boot
prompt type 'linux text' <Enter>
* Choose a custom install that will ask you at the end if you want a
graphical or text login - Choose text. (and during package selection
make sure you get a copy of Lynx.
* login and use lynx to go to http://rhn.redhat.com and get the
updated ssl stuff
* rpm them into the system
* run up2date and fetch ALL of the errata
* Next, you need to some kind of X system running. I did mine by
swapping the 'Modes' line from "800 600" "600 480" to run the lowest
first - just swap them around. You may need to choose a lower color
depth also (16 works for me)
* startx and run redhat-config-xfree86 or choose 'display' from the K
menu
* Select your desired rez from the first screen then under 'advanced'
choose the 'vesa' driver NOT the 'Savage' which is there already if
you probed the card.
* Restart X and all should be well ;-)
