-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello Lionel,
Yes, I have been following the SiS630 thread for a while now and while some have managed to get the VESA driver to sort of work, no one has managed it with RedHat 7.x and XFree86-4.0.3 that I'm aware of. The bottom line has to be, why buy a board/machine based on the SiS chipset when heaps of other hardware is suported 'out of the box'. I fell into the trap because the vendor swore linux would run on the box and it is shown as a supported chip on the XFree website. However the SiS driver in XFree86-4.x doesn't work. Maybe in 4.2 ?? One can live in hope. But if SiS don't give out the specs it's very hard indeed. I do appreciate you help though. Without people like yourself these ngs are useless. Kind Regards, Graeme.
