I have one of those cards, and it works fine with XFree86 4.3.0 in linux 2.5.68. The only quirk I've noticed is that when switching back to a text console, some colors have been modified. It never bothered me much, so I haven't dug into it. Do you have something strange in your XF86Config? One possible workaround could be to use the framebuffer console. -- Måns Rullgård [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
