I tried with latest snapshot. I still have problems to launch a X server. With vesa and fbdev X drivers, it's OK, I can launch X server but only with depth 8, and resolution 800x600 for vesa and 600x480 for fbdev (framebuffer limit?). The problem is that I need depth 16 and 1024x600 resolution. With XGi driver built in Buildroot, I got an error : "LoadModule: Module xgi does not have a xgiModuleData data object." I don't know how to correct that, I think it's the result of a version compatibility problem. With XGIz driver, download from XGI website, I got another error : "dlopen: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/xgiz_drv.so: undefined symbol: resVgaMemShared" Here again I think it's a problem of version. However I tried with all versions of this driver I found. With SIS driver built in Buildroot, everything seems ok, no errors, but I only get a black screen. I tried a lot of options of the driver which seems to be useful but with no results. I don't know how to resolve this problem. I need a working displaying in 1024x600x16 mode but this chip doesn't seems to be very used with Linux. So if somebody has the begin of an idea to solve this, I accept everything. Thanks Damien.
