I installed XFree86 4.2.0 hoping for better S3 support. XFree86 = -configure detects the video card and writes up a XF86Config file with = 60 display adapters! PCI 0:9:0 PCI 16:0:0 PCI 16:0:1 ... PCI 17:27:0 When I try to startx I see the display initializing (The way it does at = boot) over and over I don't know if it would go on forever, but after = about 5 minutes I just pressed the reset button. (CTRL-ALT-Backspace had = no effect.) I trimmed all the extra screens, monitors, and displays from the file, = leaving only Screen0, Monitor0 and Display0. X will load that way, but = the s3 driver leaves a bunch of warnings like "No matching Device = section for instance (Bus ID PCI:17:27:0) found." And I can't seem to = increase the display resolution. The driver thinks the card has = insufficient memory to reach anything over VGA. I have a nice 8 meg ATI card, but it won't work with that old processor. = ;-) So has anyone seen this before? Any suggestions? ------=_NextPart_000_0053_01C1EA64.0915FE30 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META content=3D"text/html; charset=3Diso-8859-1" = http-equiv=3DContent-Type> <META content=3D"MSHTML 5.00.3315.2870" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>I am running Slackware 8.0 on a Pentium = 90 system=20 with a S3 Trio 64 display.
