Hi,
I tried to get XGGI and KGI to work but failed, so here are my
questions:
1. I'm running fb (at least I can use fbset and set the different modes
on my screen) on a matrox card (MGA G200 AGP).
2. when I try to run XGG with something like:
XGGI -bpp 32 -targets fbdev:/dev/fb0;
It runs but I only get 640x400 and can't move the cursor with my ps/2
mouse.
So, I'd like to run X in 1024x768x32 with mouse movement. How do I do
that ? If I add -modes 1024x768 the screen goes black and nothing
happens (I switch to another console and kill XGGI - but sometimes the
console I started XGGI is lost).BTW I can do "fbset 1024x768-75"...
3. I configured kgicon (./configure;make config). It detected my card
and suggested IBM vga drivers (I thought matrox cards are supported
well...). I chose generic monitor driver and none VideoIO.
build kgicon.o; and tried to insert it:
insmod kgicon.o

I thing this is where my vga card lies...hmmm? Should I switch fb off ?
I'm using kernel 2.4.0-test5. Debian package of XGGI (1.6.1) and a
snapshot of ggi from today.
Sorry if these questions have already been answered ...
