Hi all,
Well, I tried some things, but I am a complete
newbie. I do not know much about Linux (yet). My distribution is Caldera Open
Linux Workstation. From the website of ATI I downloaded (Linux-ix86-glibc22),
and there they say that it is updated for the Radeon8500. I did this
because the original install does not support my Radeon8500. So, after some
(some?) reading I ended up running "sh Xinstall.sh" (as root). Installation goes fine, but after a reboot (I guess this can
be done otherwise, but hey I am from Windows platform ;-) ) I get this
error message:
INIT: rc.gui: /opt/kde2/bin/kdm or X11 startup
problems! For X11, try running "kxconfig" as root
INIT: switching to runlevel 3
INIT: sending processes the term
signal
So, I logged in as root, and ran "kxconfig". But no
Radeon8500 was found in the list of video adapters. And, after shutting down
this kxconfig, my cursor was gone. ??
Anyone?
