The Vesa driver works fine with CentOS 4.4. I have an NVidia 6200 video
adapter. I go to Applications | System Settings | Display | Hardware tab and
find my video adapter in the list and set it. The dialog tells me I have to
log out for it to take effect, so I duly do that. I then getting a message
from a non-graphics screen saying that the attempt to switch to the video
adapter failed. When I view why, amidst all the information given is the
messages:
(EE) No devices detected.
Fatal server error:
No screens found
I am able to switch back to the Vesa driver through the non-graphics screen,
and this brings me back to my graphics login and I am once again successfully
in CentOS 4.4 using the Vesa driver.
Does anybody have any idea what the messages above mean or how I can correct
it so it can successfully load my video adapter specific settings ?
The contents of /var/log/Xorg.0.log would be very useful in debugging this
(read: necessary). If you have somewhere you can put them up for download
(http or ftp), that'd be much preferable to mailing them to the list.
