[XFree86] Sis300 support in XFree86 version 4.3.0 (fwd)

2003-03-14 Thread Melissa Golter
To Whom

Among other cards that XFree86 version 4.3.0 pruports to support (and
which are subsequently listed once the version is installed) the SiS300
video chip is mentioned.

Tho the installation of this version (on RH7.3) of XFree is not without
error on my machine (apparently libglide2x.so is missing --?), tho other
new drivers mentioned on the XFree86.org page do show up on the list of
drivers, mention of the SiS300 (the card I have uses it...;] ) is missing.

Is it *Really* not included (which means I have wasted several days ;P)?

Please note: regardless of support, right now I cannot get even
Xconfigurator (in setup util) to configure even a generic VGA card with my
monitor!!!  Any suggestions?

thanks

mgolter

PS I (just) subscribed to the general list, but for some reason had to
send this using another email address ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). Can I 
change this? Please advise?

If I am reading the filename correctly, that file is 26Mb -- but if that
is OK to
send to you, will do...in the meantime, I put it in
ftp.evl.uic.edu/pub/INcoming/mgolter/xfree/

btw, ver 4.3.0 has libglide3.so but not the 2x.so nec to configure the
system correctly.  I am supposing I can find the libglide2x.so somewhere
(note: the previous version of XFree86 -- the one that came with RH7.3,
did not include it either it seems (a *whereis* did not yield a result
from the saved XFree version directory either). ;P

Thanks for your interest,

mgolter

 Support for the 300 has been included in X since at least 3.3.6. Please send

 figure out why its not working.
