Frame Buffer Query
Hi all Now i am trying to configure X server for the Frame Buffer Device on my S3 card. I did successfully compiled the kernel 2.2.14 i586 with VESA FB and it's booted in 0x318 (1024x768) graphics mode and got a penguin logo. After that I've configured the options on XF86Configure according to the linux/Documentation/fb/vesafb.txt. But when i starting the XF86_FBDev server,the Server mode data base won't mathed with my mode ie shown by fbset and it simply terminates with an error. The fbset will shows $ fbset --xfree86 - Mode 1024x768 # D: 78.653 MHz, H: 59.949 kHz, V: 75.694 Hz DotClock 78.654 HTimings 1024 1056 1184 1312 VTimings 768 772 776 792 Flags-HSync -VSync EndMode - The server output : - XFree86 Version 3.3.6 / X Window System (protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6300) Release Date: January 8 2000 If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is newer than the above date, look for a newer version before reporting problems.

Also the same problem on all the modes like (600x800,..) Anyone have experience with this. -jijo jose -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
