by Hello,
I just installed Linux (Slackware 96) for the first time, on our new
PC. We have a Dell Dimension XPS133S, configured with their
UltraScan 17TX monitor and a Number Nine Reality 332 video
card (S3 764/Trio64 chipset).
I'm trying to get a runnable XF86Config file using the xf86config
utility, and things aren't working. I've selected the
accelerated server for S3 cards. Everything goes well until
I get to the X -probeonly part. I get a "cannot find clocks in
server output" message from the x -probeonly test.
I quit and tried starting X with the output redirected to a file
so I can look at it. X gets to the point where it looks for the video
card, then says it cannot locate any configured device.
I'm worried that I should be setting clock information, even
though the files in the XreeF86 doc directory say this should not be
the case.
What am I doing wrong? Can someone out there running the same or a
similar setup help me with the XF86Config file?
Thanks for any help you can give!!!!
