graphic system setup
Hi.
/* Sorry if you get this more than once.
I was also struggling with email configuration,
and list subscription requests and confirmation
seem to have gotten a bit out of sync. */
I've installed Debian over the network from the default server
(Woody I think). It's my first time.
I cannot get X to work properly.
"startx" runs but shows in a 320x200 mode
even though I select a higher mode in the configuration.
Also, it shows only in the bottom half of the screen.
The input devices seem to work. The problem is just the graphics.
I've been configuring with xf86config and also hand editing.
Is there another way?
I don't know my monitor frequencies exactly.
The tag on the back says:
Model 14A
14" color monitor
100-240 V 50/60 Hz 1.0 A
LEO Systems Inc.
It's a terribly common monitor.
My card is a S3 TrioV64+, but I don't know the memory size. I've tried
from 256k to 2M.
I've tried S3 TrioV64+ as well as "generic" entries in sf86config.
I copy the result of xf86config to the "/etc/X11/XF86Config-4" file.
The log (see below) does not show any error, but indicates that the
320x200 mode is being used despite my configuration.
What am I missing?
Must I use another configuration tool? Which one?
Must I upgrade the system? How?
(apt-get install x-window-system says I'm up-to-date,
but the log says it's a pre-release)
Must I disable "framebuffer"? How?
Thanks a lot.
