Hello,
Sorry it's taken so long to get back to the list about this, I've been
really busy over the last few days. It appears that it
isn't 640x840 I can only get but 800x600. When I was running Woody I
would get 1024x768 which was about right for the screen size.
I have bpp set to 15. If I try 16 the colours on the screen get
mangled. If I try 24, X crashes. If I try 8, I get a green screen
display on the left half of the monitor.
A couple of further points. X seems to believe I have only 1M video
RAM, I've got 2M. Also, the 999 errors appear at different places in the
log file each time X is started.
Many thanks
Paul
