Cirrus Logic CL-DG624X and XServers
I just discovered last night that my old Extensa-450 Laptop can run X
with Fluxbox just fine despite still only having 12MB of RAM. However,
the xsetup.sh program that Damn Small Linux uses only offers a choice
of 2 servers: Xvesa and Xfbdev.
Xfbdev does not seem to work for me, but Xvesa does. The problem is,
Xvesa only gives me at best, 640x480 - 16 Colors, even though I know
(from the WfW side of the system) that I can get up to 256 colors.
The video controller on the MB is a Cirrus Logic CL-DG 624X. So, what
driver should I modprobe to get this set up properly so that I can get
at least 640x480 - 8-Bit color?
