Virtual PC 5.2



Hi,

I hope this is the place for newbie questions...

I am trying to install Debian on Virtual PC 5.2 (on a wintel box)

The first part of the install works fine, but I am having trouble
getting X-Windows to work.  I have edited the XF86Config file
to use the s3 driver, but I think I have made a mistake somewhere.

The output from startx (or at least the last part of the output)
is:

    (II) S3VIRGE: driver (version 1.6.13) for S3 ViRGE chipsets: virge,
86C3
           virge vx, 86C988, virge dx, virge gx, 86C375, 86C385, virge
gx2,
           86C357, virge mx, 86C260, virge mx+, 86C280, trio 3d, 86C365,
           trio 3d/2x, 86C362, 86C368
    (--) Assigning device section with no busID to primary device
    (EE) No devices detected.

    Fatal server error:
    no screens found

I can't figure out if this means that the driver is not detecting the
video card, or whether it means I have made a mistake in the
configuration
file.  Any help on this would be appreciated.

Adelle.
