Problems with Xfree 4.2.1 in powermac G4 with Nv GeForce 2 MX
I've installed 4.2.1 in a powermac system with Nv GeForce 2 MX with
Twinwiev (Two connectors VGA and ADC output) when I do, the monitor is
an apple studio display 15' TFT:
> xfree86 -configure (or something)
It detects the Nvidia GeForce 2.
Then I get a new XF86config-4 file, The XServer starts with this
configuration but it doesn't does anything, a blue band appears in the
upper part of the screen, then I modify the config file, I add lines
like these (I don't remember exactly the first word):
Mode "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
in every ColorDepth
I'm using the VGA output of the monitor (it seems by default), the ADC
output does't works (black screen)
Now, after adding these lines, it displays a band in the upper part of
the screen, with 5-6 desktops with mixed parts, if I touch the keys, I
can see someting like a window opening or a dialog box moving, like
when you don't enter the right password.
What happens???
Continue with your work, It's wonderful.
P.D: oh my god!!! I can't believe this: macintosh systems only have
three or four graphic cards the same keyboard and mouse. Why there
aren't config options for them and the graphic cards won't work
properly... What happens???
