Kevin I tried your next-to-latest driver (the lastest one 4.1.99 was not compatible with my 4.1.0 server, or so it claimed) and it STILL did not work. Running XFree86 -probeonly locked up the computer as before, yielding no output at all in /var/log/XFree86.0.log.
However, following a suggestion someone sent me, I removed the library libvbe.o and now it works ! now why is that ? is libvbe.o an optional library ? I am skeptical, expecting some kind of performance decrease in exchange. (of course, working at all is a huge performance increase from before ! ;-) Interestingly, when trying the 4.1.99 driver, XF did get past the stage of loading libvde , only to die afterwards when it tried to load the s3virge driver. odd. anyhow, am I courting disaster by removing the libvbe library ? is there something else I should do ?? regards, Marcello > > There have been some recent fixes for MX, you can grab a test driver > from my page below.
