Dear XF86 users I have an old laptop (AST Ascentia M, year of construction 1996/7). A few weeks ago I have installed Debian linux 2.2 on that machine. This linux distribution uses XF86 version 3.3.6, I assume. Unfortunately, I do not know how to get my video card (which is cirrus logic 7556 with 2 Mb ram) working properly. The configuration program XF86Setpup tells me that it cannot find the server; I need to use a "generic card" instead. This works but I do not get a good screen (ie. it is very small with a bad resolution). Further, XF86Setup recommends to install the right server. What am I to do in a more verbose language? I think that there should be a way to fix my problem (according to the Webpage http://www.xfree86.org/current/Status9.html at least for XF86 3.3.6). -How? Should I install a newer version of XF86? Thank you very much for your attention and your hints. Regards M.
