Matrox is the only company I've ever heard make noise about their 2D performance. The
box from my G400 DualHead billed it as the fastest 2D accelerator
Hi everyone!
One of the computers I use is particularly slow.
So when I start X, I would like it to load in the background on VT7 _without_
changing the current VT.
e.g. I'm happily tapping away on VT1 and then decide that I need to play
Maelstrom. So I "startx" but as soon as I press Enter,

You need that library. XFree's libGL is just an intermediary, it uses that
library to talk to 3Dfx boards to do d

I have a $90 (last-year's price, retail) 16MB 3DFx Voodoo 3000 AGP in my

The main reason I went with the 4.X series is 'cause I'd read on the 'net
that it has the ability to use APM (DPMS?) to darken laptop backlights,
but I haven't seen the ability to do this anywhere.
I've got a ProStar (AKA Sager/Kapok/Clevo/...) laptop with a dumber BIOS
than my Transmonde, so it

Okay.. as is always the way.. 5minutes after posting to this list, I
managed to find the bit of information I was after..
Seriously, I have been searching all day using various combinations

Hiya,
I've been using Xinerama for the past few months happily until yesterday
when I returned from the xmas holidays to find out that my box had been
'broken' by an over ambitous collegue..
After re-installing everything I set to re-configuring XFree86 to enable
xinerama again.. and thats when

after trying about 8 hours, and reading almost everything i could find,
could the matrox g200 agp ( mgag200 ) do sync on green ?
because my working config for the Matrox Millennium won't work with the

Hi,
I am using Xfree86
4x with an Elsa Gladiac 511 Twin graphics adapter. This card has two VGA
outputs. Of course I would like to use two monitors now, but I stumbled into
some configuration problems. In the documentation I found out, that the
BusID is mandatory in such a setting. What I
