Running XF86_S3 (3.1) with the Genoa Phantom 64/PCI causes many problems.
A (temporary) fix for this problems is:
- using loadlin (version 1.5) to boot linux from config.sys
- add some lines
shell c:\genoa\sync .....
before the 'shell c:\loadlin\loadlin c:\loadlin\zimage' line
Get the sync parameters from the genoa utilities under windows.
- get a fixed binary version of the XF86_S3 from
This will fix the problem, that after startx the monitor couldn't syncQuote:> ftp emlserv.ee.TU-Berlin.DE (login as: ftp)
> cd pub/linux/experimental
> dir
(some cntr-alt-+ were necessary to find a working configuration).
And that after exit from X, the monitor won't go blank.
