Graphics mode on my C3000 - close but no cigar
Hi Daniele,
I received and installed the Visualize EG/PCI card. I reloaded Debian from
scratch. I chose monitor resolution 1280x960 at 85Hz since there was no
1280x1024 choice. I chose gdm for the display manager because Grant told me
xdm had problems. I installed kernel-image-2.4.26-32 and did apt-get upgrade
(I had installed X on the original installation). The upgrade returned an
error 1 on installing xfont-scalable and I didn't know how to fix it.
Anyway, I proceeded to reboot (with pa con GRAPHICS(3) type 2) and X failed
to come up. I got a dialog box asking if I wanted to see what was wrong with
the X configuration and I said "Yes". This brought up a window which said
"Process set to nice value 0 instead of -10 as requested" and a bunch of
XFree disclaimers. I have looked at /etx/X11/XF86Config-4 (when X fails, it
brings up the serial console) and I can't see anything obviously wrong. At
this point I am requesting that you tell me exactly what you did to get you
C3000 running in Graphics mode please.
Thank you,
Harry
