I am failing to get the "Zotac Zbox" working on Debian Lenny LTSP, I have
tried various lts.conf settings and even custom Xorg.conf files.
# lspci -vnn :

I think there is an issue with the fact that there are two devices here, and
even with a custom xorg.conf file I am struggling to get them both to behave.
The error message in Xorg.7.log is typically something like:
http://pastebin.com/yUR64Kr9
(WW) intel: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:0:2:1) found
But adding a device card1 quoting that BusID doesn't seem to fix it. I've seen
various suggestions about this device being treated as a laptop with a LVDS
display, but using xrandr to switch off LVDS
My custom xorg.conf looks like this:
http://pastebin.com/cmE8Gngr
And yes, I really don't know my way around Xorg, so I would not be surprised
to hear that this file is incorrect!
My lts.conf for this device looks like this:
[192.168.1.211]
# Zotac ZBOX
X_MODE_0 = 1024x768
X_HORZSYNC = "30-60"
X_VERTREFRESH = "56-75"
XRANDR_OUTPUT_0 = "VGA1 --primary"
XRANDR_MODE_0 = "1024x768"
XRANDR_OUTPUT_1 = "LVDS1 --off"
XF86CONFIG_FILE = "/etc/X11/xorg.conf.zbox"
But I have tried just about everything here, but I have never used the XRANDR
options before, nor the XF86CONFIG_FILE, so I can well imagine that I might
have got these wrong.
This client boots fine on a Debian Squeeze live memory stick (actually
Crunchbang).
Any suggestions gratefully received.
With many thanks,
Chris.
