Hi Michael, this error is not sufficient to stop an X server, it is just a bit of info that states that this card does not have this advanced feature (used for eyecandy). Show us more lines that have EE,WW,II or similar. Cheers, Kev
Hmmm.... THis is worrying because this was the only error I saw on the terminal. MInd you maybe there was one of these other errors elsewhere in the log file that didn't appear on the terminal................
Would the log file be in e.g. /var/log/xorg.0.log or something like that?I could boot up the machine and go in the file and sniff around for more errors.
I will see what I can find and come back at you guys later. Thank you for this advice. Regards Michael Fothergill
