First read and digest: http://www.chzsoft.com.ar/855patch.html http://www.xfree86.org/~dawes/845driver.html My linux-on-laptops page has some info: http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/staff/cthom/laptop/ That should get you pointed in the right direction. Of course, the easiest thing to do is to avoid the whole mess and install X from the 4.4 release candidates, available at www.xfree86.org. The fixes have been incorporated. cheers chris _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
