I had the choice for XFree versus Xpmac but no choice for the screen itself only resolution and color depth as when i was under console. result is the same : black screen, XFConfig untouched. but the symlink in /etc/X11 points now to Xfree86 no more to Xpmac. >> Again /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 has nothing to do with Xpmac. > >i knew that point BUT this is mdk installer itself having written this >line speaking about Xpmac into an XF86Config file... >Section "Screen" > Identifier "screen1" > #Device "Xpmac Frame Buffer Driver" > Device "ATI Mach64 1" > Monitor "Apple|iMac/PowerBook 1024x768" > > >>rpm -e XFree86-Xpmac >>urpmi XFree-server i had first to rebuid the rpm db. now, when i reboot i've tried a startx giving another black screen then i had to hardware force reboot. /dev/hdg9 wasn't clean obviously fsck gives a warning : fsck.ext2 for /dev/hdg9 exited with signal 11 how may i recover ? I should mention this is not the first time i've got sig 11 (ximian mailer, gnome ppp dialer, galeon and xhfs) thenb mostly within gnome-like apps. -- Yvon Thoraval
