Problems starting the X-server
Hi,
I have an iBook 2.2. My problem is, that the X-server does not start. The
screen turns black and stays like this. There is no way to return to the
console. The only way to access the machine is to login via ssh from a
foreign host. I've installed it following the instructions on mij's page. I
have tried out the combinations of two kernels and two versions of Michels
X-server:
- self compiled ben6-kernel
- precompiled ben5-kernel
- Michels X-server version 2002.12.05-4
- Michels X-server version 2003.07.02-2
The effect is allways the same. There must be a problem with the radeon
driver, but I can't fix it. I haven't found any previous posts on this
topic. The log entries and the XF86Config-4 are posted below. Has someone an
idea how to solve this?
Thanks,
Reto
