I tried compiling and installing X on my Toshiba Satellite 490CDT laptop
.. it compiles and installs. I have a S3 ViRGE /MX card with 2MB on the
laptop which is identified by xf86config.
When I to start with any screen resolution > 320 X 200 the machine
hangs. After spending hours trying to trace the cause, I discovered the S3
device driver would hang trying to update the MTRRs for Write Combining.
Tha machine hangs even with all forms of acceleration disabled.
The only fix I could use is to change the driver to VESA.
Has anyone else had similar problems ? Any fixes ??
