X server with ASUS all in one motherboard with SiS 630E chipset
Hi Kent, thanks for your effort.

I have tried to look my cd (Debian 2.2r0) but I cannot find
xserver-sis
I am sure it is stored in Debian web site. Could you tell me how
to
download this driver through windows.
(I use Windows 2000 to connect to internet via LAN in office)
By the way, I have another question to ask:
Can more than one device share with one IRQ?
1. I have found my on board LAN adapter details (in Windows
Device Manager):
SiS 900 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter
I/O: D400-D4FF, IRQ: 9
2. And on board SOUND adapter
C-Media CM8738 Audio
I/O: 9800-98FF, IRQ: 9, PCI Bus 0
3. MPU-401 Compatible MIDI Device
I/O: 0330-0331, IRQ: 9, on C-Media CM8738 Audio
I tried to change LAN adapter's IRQ from 9 to 11, but windows did
not
allow me to change to any IRQ. Well, it is another story.

I did that. But after I reboot Debian and type
# startx
X server looks ok apart from the PS/2 mouse pointer does not
move.
So, I just use keyboard to test some programs which all work
fine.
Therefore, I ran XF86Setup again. After I selected PS/2 mouse,
and
pressed "apply", mouse pointer still stayed where it was. Then I
selected any other mouse (not PS/2 of course), then key "apply".
After I have done this, I selected PS/2 mouse again, then it
worked.
It would not work if I restart x server.
I have tried several times, the results were the same.
