RE: [Newbie]Setting up ATI Rage LT Pro card under XFree86

Is it crashing on you, or just not getting the proper resolution?  Posting details about your X installation (e.g. version, XF86config) would help.   John Supplee -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Evan Horne Sent: Wednesday, February 27, 2002 3:13 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Newbie]Setting up ATI Rage LT Pro card under XFree86 Thanks for the help.

Now I should be able to finally get a decent resolution (i.e. 1600 x 1200). However, I haven't been able to. I installed FreeBSD the other day to try it out. The XFree86 setup had my card, an old ATI Rage LT Pro, which allowed me to go up to 1600 x 1200 res. I uninstalled FreeBSD today to go back to Linux. Before I never had to bother reconfiguring my video card, as my monitor sucked so bad I wouldn't be able to tell a difference. I first ran 'xf86config' but only one ATI card showed up. So I decided to update. I managed to update Xfreee86 all by myself the first try. I reran xf86config and to my dismay the ATI Rage LT Pro wasn't listen. I tried using some other drivers in some vein attempt to be able to run at 1600 x 1200 res, but to no avail. Anyone have any suggestions as to what to do? I would love to actually be able to multitask without watching everything come tumbling down due to a shoddy OS (aka Windows ;). Your help is very much appreciated. Thanks. -<a href="mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]">Oooska</A>
