Hello.

Use Debian Woody and I installed X4.1. During the
configuration, it asks for:

1.      SELECT THE DESIRED DEFAULT X SERVER. Among the two
options (xserver-xfree86 and xserver-svga), I select
the xserver-xfree86.

2.      SELECT THE DESIRED X SERVER DRIVER. Several options
exist (vesa, apm, trident, cirrus, cyrix,�, vga). It
doesn't have my video card driver (Diamond Stealth 64
Dram�chip set Trio 64 S3). Therefore, I select the
driver vga.

3.      Enter in the identifier goes your video card. I
leave the default: Generic V�deo Card.

4.      Please enter the video card's bus identifier. I
leave in I don't write anything. I leave default:
emptiness.

5.      Enter of amount of memory... I don't write
anything. I leave default: emptiness.

6.      Do use kernel framebuffer device interfaces? I
answer No.

7.      Please select XKB rule set to uses. I leave the
default: xfree86.

8.      I usually configure the keyboard. He is working
perfectly.

9.      I configure the monitor. He is ok.

10.     Do Write default files section to configuration it
file? I answer Yes.

11.     Write default DRI section to configuration file? I
answer Yes. 

If I choose a resolution above 4 bits (for exemplo16
bits), KDE doesn't start. He begins and when it begins
to configure the peripheral, it happens a mistake and
it returns for it consoles him.

When I select 4 bits of resolution of the video, KDE
usually begins. It is possible to execute programs, to
configure panels, etc. However, the resolution of the
video is very bad. I think 4 bits only correspond to
256 colors.

On the other hand, if in the step 1 I select
xserver-svga, I can use a resolution of 24 bits and
KDE it works perfectly. Only that the menus of KDE are
not readable: the words appear as if they were codes
of bars.

I ask:
Am I making something wrong?
Why doesn't have the option svga in the
xserver-xfree86? Step 2.
Why when I configure how pattern the xserver-svga, do
the words of the menus appear as if they were bar
codes?

Thank you very much for the helps.
