Re: [XFree86] X running Blank screen
GEORGIA STENDER wrote: Hello All, I posted this earlier but I didn't know the server could handle attachments so I didn't send anything. I'm attaching my log and config file this time. Again the situation is I'm trying to run XFree86 4.3.0 from my Redhat 9 install on a Compaq Presario. System has a SavagePro graphics card which is probed correctly. Everything I can find looks like it should run but all I get is a blank screen. I switch to console mode to look around and find X running, no errors in log. Something else I didn't include last time is that a fried suggested I pull down KNOPPIX and try that. A default boot won't run but if I supply fb1024x768 at the boot prompt it come up and runs fine. I have looked at the log and conf files from that (available if you want to see them but not included here because of size) but when I try to force my Redhat to use fbdev I get device not found errors even though /dev/fb0 does exist. I would really love to get this working without buying another graphics card. Can anyone suggest something to try or at least make some comments about framebuffers that may get me pointed in the right direction. Anything would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Yes, that seems to be sufficient. I chose the generic LCD and 60Hz entry, then adjusted the Hor and Vert entries. This worked. Regarding the other question: When or how is the list of available monitors being updated? Is there any chance doing this by downloading data or is this automatically delivered with a new release? Not that important, but if someone knows... XFree86 does not have a list of monitors included with it at all. The database of Monitors is something which Red Hat ships with our OS products, and other vendors and distributions might ship with theirs as well however. I maintain the MonitorsDB database in Red Hat Linux, and plan on turning it into a more public project in the future, which hopefully will benefit the entire community rather than every distribution maintaining their own database privately. My goal is for different distributions and/or individual contributors to submit new monitor information into the core hardware database project and then everyone can pull the information from there. Currently this project is video-hwdata on sourceforge, and will include also a more modern replacement for the Cards and other databases as well. The project is in its infancy currently however so there isn't much to see there yet. I'll be working on it over the next 6-8 months and hope to have something useful by the time people are shipping 4.4.0. For the mean time however, to update your MonitorsDB database, submit a bug report to your particular Linux distribution vendor via their bug tracker. In your bug report, include the complete details of your monitor/display, and it is best if you include a copy of the Microsoft Windows .INF file from the manufacturer of the monitor, as we have tools which can scan the .INF file and generate the necessary database lines for all monitors the .INF file lists all at once. Hope this helps. TTYL Can we contribute something? I have some specs of legacy SGI monitors (Hitachi, Mitsubishi, Sony..)
