Hello.
You are probably all getting tired of hearing the problems that I am
having with XFree86 v4.
The problem I am having is that X isn't properly recognizing the
internal video to my 8500 -- /chaos/control. I did get my XF86Config
file set up to work on it (as far as I'm aware) and xinerama works, to
some extent. (the problem I was having before with xinerama wound up
being that miboot assumes ATI hardware and likewise passes video=atyfb
kernel arguments.)
symptoms:
Screen is rotated about 40% to the left (the left portion wraps around
to the right). Despite XF86Config args, it will only do 640x480@60Hz.
Additionally, it appears that it is running in 16 colors, even though it
won't do 16 colors in MacOS and my voodoo is running in millions.
Additionally, as enlightenment is xinerama aware, I can get windows to
pop up on the /chaos/control screen (bad colors), but when I save the
session with enlightenment as my default wm, my gnome toolbars
permanently dissapear--unless I delete all of my .gnome* directories.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hank
ps I have a qt/OpenGL version of breakout (very simple) I've been
working on for school. Anyone interested in playing it?
