Hi
there I
am trying to set up my ATI Radeon 9000 Pro and Iiyama VisionMaster Pro 400 (701GT) to run successfully under Mandrake Linux 9.2 (XFree86 4.3) and at the
moment the screen flickers so badly that I
have to go back my nice calming Win XP install... Anyway
I installed Mandrake Linux 9.2 spanning a number of mount volumes
on my PC. However, the VisionMaster pro 400 was not recognised during the install and
hence, not referenced in the generated XF86config-4 file so I added a sample "Monitor" section
for VisonMaster Pro (see relevent sections from
XF86Config-4 below) which I obtained by looking through the
web and relevant user
groups. Next, I restarted X server but the screen still flickers. Aaaaahhh!
So
my questions are
a)
Is
their problem with my XF86congig-4 (see
attached XF86Config-4.current), which would resolve my
issue? b) Do I wait for Mandrake Linux 10 or Xfree86 ver 4.4.0 and install this
d)
Do
give up and resign myself to the fact the Linux is really for rocket scientists
with lots of time on their hands! If
someone could point me in the right direction I will hopefully do the rest …
Cheers
Daniel
