RE: trouble: not appropiate data in xf86PciInfo.h (old graphic card)

Well, I don't think downgradding will work, because of previous versions of 
xfree support ALI cards since ALI2101, but mine is ALI1300 >_< so, any help 
with fbdev? Thanks again!

that wont help you. &gt; &gt;read 
http://www.xfree86.org/4.1.0/Status7.html &gt; &gt;so the only 
possibility is to use either fbdev or vesa or downgrade to

work. &gt; &gt; If just somebody could tell me how to. What can I do 
with &gt; &gt; 'scanpci -v' &gt; &gt; output? Is that output related 
with the data I should put in &gt; &gt; xf86PciInfo.h? &gt; &gt; (I

13:00:35 -0700 (PDT)&lt;br&gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;gt; I don't think 
there &gt; &gt; are any avance &gt; &gt; logic drivers for XFree86 
4.x&lt;br&gt;&amp;gt;X-servers. There were &gt; &gt; some back 
in &gt; &gt; XFree86 3.3.6, but nobody seemed&lt;br&gt;&amp;gt;interested 
in porting &gt; &gt; these to &gt; &gt; XFree86 4.0. You'll probably 
have&lt;br&gt;&amp;gt;to go back to &gt; &gt; XFree86 3.3.6 if 
you &gt; &gt; want native XFree86 support 
for&lt;br&gt;&amp;gt;that &gt; &gt; 
card.&lt;br&gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;gt;http://www.xfree86.org/4.1.0/Status7.html &gt; 
&gt; &lt;br&gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;gt; &gt; &gt; Another option 
would be to see if there is kernel framebuffer &gt; &gt; 
device&lt;br&gt;&amp;gt;for that card and try using the fbdev driver &gt; 
&gt; with a later &gt; &gt; XFree86&lt;br&gt;&amp;gt;server. You should 
probably do a Google &gt; &gt; search to look for &gt; &gt; 
other&lt;br&gt;&amp;gt;options.&lt;br&gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;gt; &gt;
