Re: i855GM: New BIOS breaks i810-driver - solved

2004-02-20 Thread Christian Zietz
Hi, Thank you Alain for sorting out this problem and Alan for commiting a patch. Would it be possible to offer binaries or a small, easy to build source package? I think many of the users affected by that problem can't build or don't want to build the whole XFree86 from source. CU Christian ___

Alain, Can you try the int10 emulator ? To do this, (re)move this file out of the way. /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/linux/libint10.a Then XFree86 will use /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/libint10.a Which is the emulator. Does it still lockup with that BIOS call ? Alan. _
