Now this is the result on Linux 2.2 lug% cat /proc/fb 0 ATY Mach64 and on Linux 2.4 lug% cat /proc/fb 0 OFfb /[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ATY,[EMAIL PROTECTED]/AT| (for the latter, it occurs whether or not I include a yaboot directive "video=atyfb") so ! what can be happening ? should I compile the 2.4 kernel with different options, maybe ? >> [...] and what works with 2.2 kernel does >> not work at all with 2.4 kernel. > >How does it fail?

Well the X server just does not start, or messes up the screen, depending on the refresh values I have entered. Basically it gives me the error message that you analysed earlier. Nothing more, but it does prevent my running kmines ;-) Thanks, Laurent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
