Xfree86 3.2A SVGA Server on Xfree86 3.2

Xfree86 3.2A SVGA Server on Xfree86 3.2

Post by Joao Manuel Caroli » Thu, 01 May 1997 04:00:00



        I have istalled in my computer xfree86 3.2 which came with the
Slackware 3.2 distribution of Linux.
        The problem is that the version hi have istalled hasnt got
support for my video card in any of its servers (my card is a SiS6205
) and I found that the version 3.2A had support for it, in the SVGA
server, so I downloaded the SVGA server, but I don't know how to
configure it.
        I would appreciate if some one could help me.
        Thanks in advance

Just downloading the SVGA server won't help!

Read the README and REL_NOTES before downloading anything. All the steps
and details are perfectly described in those files...

1. Can I use XFree86 3.1 Mach64 SVGA server in XFree86 2.1?

Hi,

I'm thinking about getting a Mach64 graphics card.

Now, I know the Mach64 is only supported in unaccelerated mode
right now.  And I don't mind waiting until the accelerated driver
does get finished.

However, I plan to use XFree86 2.1 because it's X11R5 based.  Can
I use the XFree86 3.1 Mach64 SVGA server and the later accelerated
server coming in XFree86 >= 3.2 in XFree86 2.1?

Thanks in advance.
