Hi, I'm running Linux on an IBM ThinkPad 770z with the 14.1 inch screen (1024x768 res)with Mandrake 7.2. Unfortunately, starting x results only in a black screen. I was told by the Mandrake support staff to switch back to XF86 3.3.6 to use my Trident Cyber 9397/DVD graphic card in XFDrake. I have, and others have configured x on this ThinkPad model without a patch, but my x still doesn't start. Here are my current settings (which do not work): Monitor: Generic:High Frequency SVGA, 1024x768 at 70 Hz Monitor HorizSync: 31.5-57.0 Monitor VertRefresh: 50-90 Graphic Card: Trident Cyber 9397 DVD (generic) Graphic memory: 8192 kB Color depth: 256 colors (8 bits) Resolution: 800x600 XFree86 server: SVGA XFree86 driver: trident Has anyone here configured x on a TP770z under a 770z? Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? I am a complete newbie, and would greatly appreciate any assistance. Thanks, Stephen ___________________________________________________________________________ Visit http://www.visto.com/info, your free web-based communications center. Visto.com. Life on the Dot.
