Kgicon calculates its own timing, so there isn't much point in having this file for kgicon. You can build a simple file using the format information from fb.modes.5 . > EVEN MORE there is no /etc/ggi/kgicon.mon at all... Take one of the sample.* files (sample.multisync at best) from the setmon directory. > THERE IS NO /etc/ggi/ further more... Yeah - either create it or link it to /usr/local/etc/ggi. > So I assume I have to create directory like /etc/ggi/ Yes and copy one of the samples there. > SO could you send me some examples about the /etc/ggi/kgicon.mon and > /etc/fb.modes PLEASE? I can send you mine when I'm back home. > all of 8MBY of video memory and like it is fully operative... only that I do not see >anything of it... Hmm - I'll forward to the GGI list to see if anyone else runs the riva driver. Maybe it's simply broken ... CU, ANdy -- Andreas Beck | Email : <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
