Hey guys, I'm in the process of moving my stuff from an old to a new laptop. After the installation, and a bump on making my Xircom Ethernet/Modem combo PC Card to work, things went smooth, at least before I starting using the new docking station.
After docking the laptop, the video went from OK to skewed on the left side. The display would also blink for a moment every 10 seconds or so. I went through possible X Monitor settings but still no dice. At this point, I gave up on XFree4.0 and installed XFree86 3.3.6. Alas, the video was OK again. The problem now is xfs would go into a state where it grabs ~99% of the CPU time. The question now is, does anybody know why a working xfs on XFree4.0 would enter an infinite loop (or looks like in an infinite loop) on XFree86 3.3.6? BTW I noticed that the xfs RPM has a 4.2 version but there's no other xfs package available in the three (3) MDK 8.2 installer CDs. The new laptop has ATI Mobility video card. I'd appreciate any information. stay cool. jeff -- -- Jeff Gutierrez ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Pinoy Ako! May reklamo?
