Friends -
I'm doing my first Debian install (woody) on a Compaq Armada 4131T
laptop. All goes well until I try X configuration. The best I have
managed to achieve is a small screen image (centered, with about a 3 cm border
on all sides) containing a GIGANTIC image - so large that only a very small
portion of it is available (e.g., just the graphic KDE in the opening screen as
KDE opens).
I have examined some of the 41xxT XF86Config files available on the web,
and have tried some of them directly, without success. I'm currently using
the vga driver (it's a cirrus chip, but the cirrus driver is incompatible with
this laptop), and specify an image of 800x600 with 8-bit color depth.
Is there something obviously wrong with what I am doing? (Clearly
there is something wrong with it, or I would have beautiful images on the
screen).
Thanks in advance from a novice (4th linux install, 1st Debian) needing
help,
Jeff Wilson
