Monitores Inves de 14 y Adaptador gráfico S3 Trio3D/2X
Hola a todos, Tratando de configurar el entorno gráfico en woody en un equipo con una tarjeta gráfica S3Trio 3D/2X con 8MB y monitor de 14 estándar no encontré ningún problema para hacerlo funcionar a 1024x780 con profundidad de color de 24 bits. Sin embargo, con un monitor Inves de 14, sólo consigo una resolución de algo parecido a 640x480, y digo algo por que de veras que salen unas letras muy grandes que me parecen excesivas incluso para esa resolución. He rebajado la profundidad del color para intentar solucionarlo (en una ocasión me pasó algo similar con una tarjeta Trident de 1MB, y así se solucionó), pero en esta ocasión no parece funcionar. Creo estar casi seguro que el problema es el monitor, pero no tengo el manual. Si alguien tiene algún monitor Inves de 14, me gustaría que me comentase su experiencia y me diese las frecuencias de refresco vertical y horizontal que utiliza para hacerlo funcionar. Y si me actualizo a testing? funcionaría? Gracias de antemano.
Re: S3 Trio3D/2X
I'm using an S3 Trio3D using the XFree86 3.3.5 FrameBuffer. I used the frame buffer howto at: http://www.uno.edu/~adamico/banshee/files/vesafb.txt to set it. Key to remember is that you use the hex values for command line booting, and decimal values in lilo.conf. I run at 1280 x 1024, 16 bit color. jeff smith James Sasitorn wrote: Well XFree86 3.3.6 has support for the S3 Trio3D/2X under the SVGA server. i have mine setup at an 800x600 display. you need to explicitly set the video memory to 4096 or use the option SW_CURSOR to get a non white block cursor.. james On Fri, 24 Mar 2000, Tolga KIlicli wrote: I know it is still the same problem for you but my card does not work even in 320x200 with 16 colors...

I know it is still the same problem for you but my card does not work even in 320x200 with 16 colors... I have tried framebuffer but it didnot work either... Do you know any driver or anything i could do with it? I've helped someone on irc with this card recently. Basically, if you look in X docs, you'll know that card is not really supported. The only way to get it to work is try VGA server and tweak in there. The most the person I helped got out of it was 320x200. I'd guess buy another card. Andrew - Andrei S.

So you probaby have XFree86 version 3.3.2, or something like that. There's no support for S3 Trio3D in that version of X, but you may upgrade to version 3.3.6, and it'll work fine. J.

Check this for info on supported cards for X 3.3.3: http://www.xfree86.org/3.3.3/README3.html or for 3.3.4: http://www.xfree86.org/3.3.4/README3.html I think that at one time (6 weeks ago?)

Yo no lo he conseguido. Con el servidor SVGA Xwindow arranca a 320x200, y con el VGA16 a 640x480, pero claro, 16 colores. Si alguien lo ha hecho me haría un tremendo favor si me contase cómo. Tengo el XFree86 3.3.2.3-1 de Hamm. Puedes probar con el frame buffer a ver si funciona.
