Hello List,
Has anyone managed to get the SiS 6326 chip to work with version 4 of
XFree86?
I installed v4 without drama but, no matter what I do, I cannot get a
normal mouse pointer; rather, I have the big white square that has
featured prominently on the newbie list.
I have read the archives and tried (I think correctly) the Options
"sw_cursor", "noaccel" and "no_bitblt" as appropriate. I have tried to
configure a serial IntelliMouse and a conventional 3-button mouse with
the same unhappy result.
I have reverted to the previous XFree86(3.3.6?) that ships with LM7.0
without problems and have the normal pointer back. Does this suggest a
fault in the "sis" driver in v4 rather than a fault in the SiS chip?
Then again, some people are having problems with the earlier XFree86,
but it seems strange that it will work in my setup but not with v4. I
have an Aopen PA50 AGP card (not flash, I know, and I wish I hadn't
bought it).
Has anyone any ideas to help me run v4 other than "buy a better card"?
Thanks.
