Matrox Millenium II again
Hello Debian-users,
I have installed Debian Linux 1.3.1 (from InfoMagic CD-set dated
Aug 97). Next I would like to have XFree86 running, but with my
Matrox Millenium II I have faced some problems (I have Nokia 447Xpro
terminal with line frequency range from 30 to 96 kHz and refresh
frequency range from 50 to 150 Hz). I have made extensive search for
help through newsgroups and several Linux links. It seems that in this
mailing list there have been discussions about Millenium II as well.
But it seems to me that there are various ways to deal with this
problem and as a new Linux user I am a bit confused. XSuSE servers
have been mentioned, on the other hand somebody says that only latest
version of XFree86 is needed from XFree86 ftp site (they should have
experimental version that supports Millenium II).
I have tried XSuSE-server. I strictly followed the instructions in their
web-page under "Installation of the XSuSE-X-Server", ie. I downloaded the
relevant *.tgz files (both the server and xf86config) and untarred them as
instructed. Then I run xf86config. If I then run XF86Setup, while
selecting card I get an error message. Matrox Millenium II is on the
list, but apparently cannot be selected.
I would be extremely happy if somebody could write down short step by
step instructions for the XFree86 installation with Matrox Millenium II,
either with XSuSE-server or some other valid way.
Best regards,
Antti
