I'm trying VMware 3.2 on Red Hat Linux 7.3, custom-compiled kernel. Graphics chip is an integrated Intel 845G.
I am running the very latest (as of one day ago) XFree86 from CVS, main trunk. My XF86Config-4 file is below. Performance with the Win2k guest OS is almost acceptable in the windowed mode, but when switching to full-screen mode, after I get the warning that DGA acceleration isn't supported by my drivers, I then find that performance is essentially okay, with one big BUT: the screen image is shifted up and to the left, quite a bit. It generally wraps at the right edge. I've tried a variety of depth, fbbpp and resolution settings on both the guest os and the linux machine itself. Nothing seems to work. When I have depth 16, I do find that DRI is working (doesn't work in 24), but this doesn't seem to have anything to do with DGA acceleration (I'm new to all this). Any tips? I have read in past posts that there is an open issue about whether the fault here lies with VMware or with driver maintainers who don't feel that DGA acceleration is the part of the driver. Question is: what to do in the meantime? Are there any other options to explore? I'm nowhere smart enough to hack at the driver code myself. _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
