RE: Graphics mode on my C3000 - still no joy
Thanks Helge and Joel,
I edited /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 according to your recommendations. It now
reads:
Section "Screen"
Identifer "Default Screen"
Device "Generic Video Card"
Monitor "Generic Monitor"
DefaultDepth 8
SubSection "Display"
Depth 8
Modes "1280x1024"
EndSubSection
EndSection
On reboot, I get the same error as before. 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. It feels like the changes
I'm making to XF86Config-4 aren't making any difference. Is the process
xinit goes through reading XFConfig-4 dynamic on every boot?
Also, does anyone have any idea about the error:
"Setting up xfonts-scalable (4.3.0.dfsg.1-5) ...
fmt: invalid line number increment: '0'
dpkg: error processing xfonts-scalable (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Best regards,
Harry

Please try this one _only_ (remove all other resolutions):
SubSection "Display"
Depth 8
Modes "1280x1024"
EndSubSection

But the clue here, is that hppa fb doesn't support switching and so just
change Modes as :
Modes "1280x1024"
would be enough to fix your pb and make sure the default depth is well 8 :)
hth,
