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...

Re: S3 Trio3D/2X
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.
