[parisc-linux] Help wanted: XF86Config (B2600)

Hi,

since yesterday, I have up and running a B2600 with Debian woody 3.0,
but I can't setup  X11 Configuration for the built in PCI Grafic card,
using framebuffer driver.

The error message in  /etc/XFree86.0.log (XFree86 Version 4.1.0.1) 
says:
(EE) No devices detected.

although I have put in /etc/X11/XF86Config:

Section "Device"
        BoardName       "hp-3D"
        Identifier      "Device[0]"
        BusID           "1:3:0" 
        Driver          "fbdev"
        Option          "UseFBDev"              "true"
        Screen          0
EndSection

The BusID was determined by  "cat /proc/pci" :
  Bus  1, device   3, function  0:
    3D controller: PCI device 103c:108b (Hewlett-Packard Company) (rev 5).
      IRQ 258.
      Master Capable.  Latency=255.
      Prefetchable 64 bit memory at 0xfffffffffb000000 
[0xfffffffffbffffff].
      Non-prefetchable 64 bit memory at 0xfffffffffa000000 
[0xfffffffffaffffff].

If anybody has the same grafic card running, I would very much appreciate
to get a working XF86Config or any tips to resolve that problem.

Regards,
       Joachim

it's a FXE card, unsupported.
Only Vis-EG are.
Support for these cards is planned to be worked on ;)

Would it be possible to plug in a standard PC PCI Grafics card, like lets 
say
a vanilla matrox  mgag550 and use that driver ?

IIRC, some are supported (weren't we talking about Voodoo2 recently ? :)
You should take a look at the m-l archive:
