by Hello,
I'm trying to configure XFree86 on my Linux system, and have been having
severe problems getting the VideoLogic GrafixStar 300 card synchronized
properly. It doesn't appear to be in any of the FAQs or HOWTOs, so I'm
wondering if anyone has any "pre-press" info about it.
It does have the S3 Trio64 chipset, which includes a programmable clock
chip, but I can't seem to tell which one. Anyone know where I can look?
No matter what I do (except run in 320x200 VGA), I get several dozen white
vertical lines on the screen and a corrupted image.
I'm using the XF86Config file as generated by the xf86config script, and
I'll include relevant portions below. (although it'd be much easier to
cut & paste if I had X-Windows... :/)
Any tips on how to figure out the clock chip info or timings would be
greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
-Harlan
