Re: Chrome9 in Slackware 12.1 > When I change the driver VESA to "openchrome", the X don't start.
I don't know what hardware you use and what's inside in xorg.conf, but i had the same experience when i use openchrome for the first time. I'm using P4M900 Chrome 9 HC IGP. It don't have 3D and the hardware acceleration isn't opened for public. The only thing to do to make it to work is by disabling the hardware acceleration. Open your xorg.conf and look for video 'Device' section: Section "Device" BoardName "VIA Technologies, Inc. Chrome9 HC IGP (rev 01)" BusID "1:0:0" Driver "openchrome" Identifier "Device[0]" VendorName "openchrome" EndSection Add this: Option "NoAccel" "on" If you use wine you might have to add this too: Option "SWCursor" "on" Then restart your X. This is my xorg.conf: Section "Device" BoardName "VIA Technologies, Inc. Chrome9 HC IGP (rev 01)" BusID "1:0:0" Driver "openchrome" Identifier "Device[0]" VendorName "openchrome" Option "DisableIRQ" "off" Option "DisableVQ" "off" Option "EnableAGPDMA" "on" Option "NoAccel" "on" Option "NoAGPFor2D" "off" Option "NoXVDMA" "off" Option "ShadowFB" "off" Option "SWCursor" "on" Option "VBEModes" "on" Option "VBESaveRestore" "off" EndSection Good luck ... :) ---- Reply Link: <http://wiki.openchrome.org/tikiwiki/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?forumId=1&comments_reply_threadId=5469&comments_parentId=5468&post_reply=1#form> _______________________________________________ openchrome-users mailing list [email protected] http://wiki.openchrome.org/mailman/listinfo/openchrome-users Main page: http://www.openchrome.org Wiki: http://wiki.openchrome.org User Forum: http://wiki.openchrome.org/tikiwiki/tiki-view_forum.php?forumId=1
