Re: X11: HELP for ATI 3DChar 4MB RageIIC AGP
Thank you fpr your reply! We've found the PCI-versions of the VGA card ATI Mach64 GT (Rage II) (rev. 154),ATI 3D-Charger 2MB in the most of the other of 12 PCs, which run fine. Just the AGP version doesn't, but we can live with it.

For an ATI Mach64 3D RAGE II C, I use: ChipId 0x4755 and it seems to work, more or less. I found this in the XFree86 FAQ.

X11: HELP for ATI 3DChar 4MB RageIIC AGP
Who can tell us please any applicable XF86-settings for this Card (7'1998)? The best result we could get was 2 or more time repeated windows. The README.Mach64 file was helpful, but not to the end. ChipID: 0x475a (not recognized) Chip Revision: 58 (??!) Is there any one out there who has this card up and running? thanks. Joerg Bode. -- (signature under construction)

X11 HELP!
Hello help! I hope someone can help me with this problem that is getting worse and worse... I tired to install fvwm95 and all I got was a plain login screen that would log into a plain window with a single xterm. I tried to remvoe the window manager and install another using dserver... Now I CAN NOT LOGIN to the computer at all from the console. When I log in I get a colorful flash and another plain login screen. The only way I can connect to the computer is via a telnet. How do I disable the X11 so I can get my console back? Also any tips on getting a WM working would be greatly appriciated! I should have a pretty much generic installation, so I'm somewhat confused to why I am having all of this trouble.

If so, you can press Control-R to kill it and go back to a text console login screen; alternatively, you can login and press F1 after the password instead of Enter to go into safe mode, which doesn't start a window manager, just an xterm so you can fix things; or, you can press Ctrl-Alt-F1 to switch to a text console and login from there (this last one leaves XDM running; you can switch back to it with (usually, if you haven't modified the number of virtual consoles available) Alt-F7). I don't know how to restart XDM after the Control-R bit except (as root) to run /etc/init.d/xdm stop and then /etc/init.d/xdm start - the person I got the tip from didn't say if there was some way to get the XDM screen back or not. If you haven't changed it, the default is to start the first window manager listed in /etc/X11/window-managers. You could try to edit that file to see if it has been corrupted or if the first window manager listed actually exists. You may also want to check to see if there is a .xsession in your home directory, and if so, what is in it. The window manager should be the last line in it if it does exist. Incidentally, the safe mode login is a good way to test new window managers, because you can start a new window manager from the prompt and kill it if it doesn't work out. i.e. you could login in safe mode, type fvwm95 to start the fvwm95 window manager, and either quit it or kill it if you start having problems.

I think that you are using xdm (from what I do understand), and in that case, using CTRL-ALT-Fx will get your console back... (where Fx is one of the function keys F1-F6, I think that is the default inittab entry?) How do I disable the X11 so I can get my console back? Also any tips on getting a WM working would be greatly appriciated! I should have a pretty much generic installation, so I'm somewhat confused to why I am having all of this trouble. Check the /etc/X11/window-managers file... It must have the paths to the window managers. Mine has: -- # This file contains a list of available window managers. The default # Xsession file will start the first window manager that it can # in this list. #/usr/X11R6/bin/twm #-- afterstep begin /usr/X11R6/bin/afterstep #-- afterstep end /usr/X11R6/bin/fvwm95-2 /usr/X11R6/bin/fvwm2 -- Check that the Xsession file in the same directory has some stuff like this at the end: -- if [ -x $startup ] grep -q ^allow-user-xsession /etc/X11/config then exec $startup else if [ -e /etc/X11/window-managers ] then for i in `sed 's/#.*//' /etc/X11/window-managers` do if [ -x $i ] then exec $i fi done fi if [ -x /usr/X11R6/bin/fvwm ] then exec fvwm fi exec twm fi -- Hope that helps...
