Re: Power Mac G5 Debian Wheezy / Problem with GeForce FX 5200 Ultra

Risto,

Thanks for your help.

The port I am using is DVI (DVI-I-2)

When booting I ran with this line and the display came up.

boot: Linux video=TV-1:d

My xorg.conf is:

Section "Device"
    Identifier    "FX5200"
    BusID        "PCI:240:16:0"
    Driver          "nouveau"
    Option	"Monitor-DVI-I-1" "ADC_Port"
    Option	"Monitor-DVI-I-2" "DVI_Port"
    Option	"Monitor-TV-1" "TV_Port"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier    "DVI_Port"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier	"ADC_Port"
    Option	"Ignore" "true"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier    "TV_Port"
    Option	"Ignore" "true"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
    Identifier    "Default Screen"
    Device        "FX5200"
        DefaultDepth    24
           SubSection       "Display"
             Depth            24
	     Virtual 1280 1024
           EndSubSection
EndSection

Section "ServerLayout"
	Identifier	"Default Layout"
	Screen		"Default Screen"
EndSection

Can you please post what your xorg.conf file is?

Is there a solution where I don't need to run this line.

boot: Linux video=TV-1:d

I am using Debian Wheezy.

Thanks again for pointing me in the correct place.

Aaron
