XFRee86 3.3.2(.3-2) on an IBM Thinkpad 360
Hi.
I need help...!!
I have an IBM ThinkPad 360Cs, 165 meg hard drive, and 8 megs of ram.
I installed XFree86 3.3.2(.3-2). If I tried to run the XF86Setup, the
screen would go blank, and the only way I can get it back is to reboot my
computer. If I do the CTL+ALT+BKSPC, I get the command prompt, but I can't
see anything anymore. The only way for me to get video back is to reboot
the computer. (I've tried the Fn+F7 trick)...
Anyway, I used XF86Config, and configured my IBM Thinkpad 360 monitor as a
Starndard VGA (640x480) monitor @ 60hz... I set the defaults to 8 bit color,
and 640x480 resolution...Using the SVGA server (3.3.2.3-2)...
The screen comes up, but it looks like it has been shifted too far left and
too far down. As I move the mouse around on the screen, I can see two mouse
cursors... One that is where it should be, and the other that has been
'wrapped' around the screen. if I move my mouse to the right, it comes back
over to the left a short piece, and then stops (like it hit the edge of the
screen...). Same thing if I move the mouse up or down.
I have tried the tpdualscan.elf (this may not be the place to post this...),
and I get an error saying cannot execute binary file....And I haven't been
able to find the libsmapidev packages (debian or rh...)
Can anyone help me??
TIA,
Brant
