Is there an X Server for Indy?
Is there an X Server for Indy? If so where? I assume a full Gnome install
would be too slow (and Gnome likes more than 256 colors), but I would like to
see X up for grins and oooohs since this is a spare work machine (which dual
boots with IRIX 6.5). Maybe a gtk-step install? that would be slick on an
Indy.
Is there a framebuffer console driver? I assume not, as, if there was, you
could run Xfbdev on it.
Is there docs for the two graphics devices the newer Linux kernels support on
it? /dev/gfx and /dev/graphics ... these are for the newport graphics
device, which I have ... I haven't experimented with them yet. Hmmm ..
anyone know of any mesa ports/patches to use SGI hardware rendering? Then
again, this is an OLD box with crappy 8-bit color. 3D isn't gonna be very
kewl.
I'm attempting to configure kernel 2.4.0-test12 now
Cya,
Evan Langlois
