I ran the install last night, things went smoothly, it auto selected
"ATI Rage 128 Mobility" as the card, and I believe this to be
correct. However, when I tried to login for the first time the
screen flickered and it spit up a message about not being able to start
Xserver, or something similar. I've managed to find the
XFree86.0.log file, and it looks like there is definatly some errors in
my configuration. Things like:
(II) R128: not using mode (1264*1024) width too large for virtual screen
(II) R128: virtual height (0) is too small for hardware (min 128)
then it has a list of stuff it 'unloads' and says "screens found but none have a usable configuration".
Also, I'm only getting a small box in the middle of my screen to show
anything, which begins to make sense looking at the setting for virtual
height, however, this prevents me fro getting all the information out
of the log file, and, being a noob, I don't know if there is an option
to pause the scrolling. I have bo idea where to find the
configuration files mentioned, and at the moment, no way of getting the
whole logfile off the laptop to post it here. Any help is
appreciated.
