Help configure XFree 4.0
Does anyone know how to configure a Diamond Speedstar Plus with an
Tseng ET4000 chipset on woody with X 4.0? I have tried all the
possible settings in xf86config that I can think of - with no
luck. The error from the end of /var/log/XFree86.0.log is included
at the end of this message.
Here is what I did :
1) apt-get install task-x-window-system
(to install X Window System (complete))
2) run xf86config and choose above card from the list. I used the same
horizontal and vertical sync settings and resolution that has worked
for me when configuring the display in potato with X 3.6.
The same settings that works in potato simply won't work for me in
woody. I don't understand this because the XFree86 website states that
cards with the ET4000 chipset should work with X 4.0.
I next tried to install the package xserver-svga to see if this was the
problem, but X still wouldn't start.
What is going wrong here? Any ideas to fix this?
Thanks,
Lars.
