*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***
Public security bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-mga
I have the following set up
3 matrox cards -
2 * dual head G450 PCI
1 * Dual Head AGP P650
Dell precision 450 , 4gb ram sata pci raid card 2* 2gb disks
partitioned with dual boot
Problem is - I can not config xorg & lucid install corrupted vista
After many weeks of trying to install linux to the 2nd half of the raid
( vista lives on the first haIf) bought the AGP card & could then
install lucid , however during the install I saw something briefly
flash on te screen that looked like `removing undeeed windows files' or
simmilar - no explanation or log that I can find to say what happened -
anyway result is that windows fails on crcdisk & he windows repair also
does not fix it
2nd issue is thatno way can I seem to get a working xorg.conf or
equivalent , Matrox's drivers are out dated & do not install a
configuration file & the default / auto display setup does not work at
all
I have read & tried so many versions of xorg.conf & related documents -
so far nothing works & I am no expert at writing these - can someone
please post setups that will work on my system - 3 cards, 6 monitors
Also what can I do with the vista short of a full re-install ?( yes I
know some will say delete it;) but its not an option untill all my
software runs in linux ) - past dual boot installs have never touched
the windows partition ? did this one auto-resize it & thereby change the
checksum or do something to make win reject the disk ??
Thanks In Advance
