It is several years old and before cards had video overlays. Matrox didn't add a video overlay until the G200 - two product cycles newer than what you have.

[Xpert]Keyboard ignored without mouse
Hi, I've noticed that with both 4.0.3 and 4.2.0 when I start XFree86 without a mouse (using -AllowMouseOpenFail) the X server starts fine _but_ the X server doesn't respond to keyboard presses. I have tried different mainboard and different keyboard/mouse combinations and they all have the same problem. The keyboard works fine on the console and I'm not using a window manager. If I plug a mouse in before I start the X server everything works fine! Has anyone seen this behaviour before or perhaps give me somewhere to start to debug this? Thanks, Paul. ___ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
[Xpert]Make Install problems...
I put this on the newbie list, but since it sees about as much traffic as an ice-cream shop in a blizzard...I thought Id try here: I was having problems with the rpms for my distro,so I decided to give the source a try...make World went well after I installed the bison and flex that I didnt see needed in the docs,anyhow it stalls on make install with: /usr/bin/ld : cannot find -lncurses so I check and I currently have in /lib: libncurses.so.1 libncurses.so.1.9.9e libncurses.so.3 libncurses.so.3.0 libncurses.so.4 libncurses.so.4.2 libncurses.so.5 libncurses.so.5.0 libncurses.so.5.2 all of these point to the libncurses.so.5.2,and so I look back through the def and cf files and host.def has the some distros dont have termcap, the #define termcap blah blah -lncurses,so I comment it out,because I have libtermcap.so.2 and .so.2.0.8 and it still hangs in the same spot with the cannot find -lncurses..what am I missing?

Re: [Xpert]Make Install problems...
Do you have a symbolic link in /usr/lib/libncurses.so pointing to /lib/libncurses.so.5? The file without the version number is the one that is picked up at link time, whereas the ones with the version numbers get picked up at runtime. If you don't have the neccessary symbolic link, that might be a sign that you also don't have the rest of the development files. As I don't know which distribution you have, I can't tell you how to fix this (on Debian, you'd type apt-get install libncurses5-dev) Markus [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I put this on the newbie list, but since it sees about as much traffic as an ice-cream shop in a blizzard...I thought Id try here: I was having problems with the rpms for my distro,so I decided to give the source a try...make World went well after I installed the bison and flex that I didnt see needed in the docs,anyhow it stalls on make install with: /usr/bin/ld : cannot find -lncurses so I check and I currently have in /lib: libncurses.so.1 libncurses.so.1.9.9e libncurses.so.3 libncurses.so.3.0 libncurses.so.4 libncurses.so.4.2 libncurses.so.5 libncurses.so.5.0 libncurses.so.5.2 all of these point to the libncurses.so.5.2,and so I look back through the def and cf files and host.def has the some distros dont have termcap, the #define termcap blah blah -lncurses,so I comment it out,because I have libtermcap.so.2 and .so.2.0.8 and it still hangs in the same spot with the cannot find -lncurses..what am I missing? -- Markus Gutschke 3637 Fillmore Street #106 San Francisco, CA 94123-1600 +1-415-567-8449 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
[Xpert]Xserver problems with /temp/.esd
Hi, When I try to start Xserver by 'startx', the X hangs after some time. When I kill it (Ctrl+Alt+Bakspace), I see these messages. esd: Esound sound daemon already running or stale Unix socket /tmp/.esd/socket This socket already exists indicating esd is already running. Exiting... I even deleted /tmp/.esd and tried to start x. But I am getting the same problem. Any idea? Thanks, Sadanand __ Outgrown your current e-mail service?
