Framebuffer driver: cat /proc/fb If it's tdfxfb, try disabling acceleration. If it's OFfb, there's no way but to avoid it or fix the X driver. X driver: grep 'drivers/.*_drv' /var/log/XFree86.0.log It's most definitely the tdfx driver, the only other possibility would be fbdev but that's not accelerated so this kind of failure can't really happen. -- Earthling Michel D�nzer (MrCooper)/ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer XFree86 and DRI project member / CS student, Free Software enthusiast
