Re: cyberblade 7id + XFree 4.2.0



Hi all

	Almost a month later, finally I got the new XFree 4.2, but it's not working 
as I expected... If I configure Xfree with driver "vesa" everything works 
fine, but if I try to use driver "trident" it seems to just turn off the 
LCD!! I can't even use the console anymore (althought it seems to be working, 
since I could blind login and shutdown!).
	What's the trick? 

	I tried to run only Xfree as :

XFree86 -xf86config XF86Config-4-test &>error.log

and got this:

(WW) TRIDENT(0): Failed to set up write-combining range (0xf5000000,0x400000)

ah... the config file has:

 Driver      "trident"
 VendorName  "Trident"
 BoardName   "CyberBlade/DSTN/i7"
 BusID       "PCI:1:0:0"
