I’ve installed Gentoo on my (new) Dell inspiron
8600. The laptop has a 1680x1050, 15.4” display, and Nvidia Geforce FX
5650 Go card. When I run ‘xf86cfg’, or ‘startx’ with a XF86Config
file made from the example + some copy’n’past from examples that
have gotten the 15.4” display working, the screen get all messed up, can’t
make anything out of it, and if I change to a system console I the screen still
got some light blue (cyane?) small bars over it, but I can read what it says. To
get it away I have to do a reboot. I’ve search through google with almost every
possible search phrase. Found some examples on the config file with the exact
same screen (WXSGA+), only difference that they’re running redhat. I’ve
tried to copy the whole and/or parts of it (device, monitor etc.) Tried to install redhat 9, to see what config file it
made for the installation process. Copied it over to my system and tried
running it, with the same result as above. Have installed the latest nvidia driver. XFree 4.3.0 So if anyone has a solution to my problem I’d
be extremely happy… Hans Dahle |
