My system configuration: debian running unstable, xfree86 version 4, s3virge chipset.. the FAQ in xfree86 docs say that my chipset (s3virge) is fully supported in xfree86-4 in color depths of 1,4,5,8,16,24. I am currently running at 8 bit mode. I want to run at 16 or 24 bit but when I do that my screen looks like there is static or something...kind of hazy and flickering... I tried adjusting my horizontal/vertical refresh rates thinking that the problem might lie with my monitor..no good...even trying to run at the minimum horizontal/vertical refresh rates doesn't work when I try to run at 16 or 24 bit color depth.
My question is "what's going on here?" -- Sent through GMX FreeMail - http://www.gmx.net
