Case Western Reserve University    I can do is a quick patch here and there."
CMPS/EEAP      Linux -- the choice of a GNU generation.       - Erik Green

   I'm trying to get SYSV IPC working on my 0.99.8 kernel. The diffs installed
   nicely for the most part, and I added the ones that didn't by hand.
   The kernel compiled without complaint. However, whenever I run a
   program that uses IPC, I get a `Function not implemented.' error.
   I'm at a loss. Does anyone have any suggestions?

   Many thanks!

For ipcdelta.tar.z

1) The patch in fsync.cd is needed only with linux-0.99.7.
   Back it out with patch -R if you applied it.

2) The diffs in ipc.cd fail in kernel/sys.c
   The patch is trying to delete the stub for sys_ipc()
   present in this file. So edit kernel/sys.c and remove
   the lines

   int sys_ipc (void)
   {
        return -ENOSYS;
   }

Mail me if you have problems.

        Seriously..... I need some help with my Xconfig now that I've gotten
        an SVGA monitor.  (I've been doing great with a basic 640x480 setup...
        but....)

        I've a DELL 486 Performance series.... the VGA chipset on the board is
        a WDC31.  Running in normal vga mode 640x480 with the "pvga1" chipset
        has worked great with the following Xconfig entries, but I can't
        seem to get 1024x768 INTERLACED to work for me.

#######  current (working just dandy) settings
# clock  horzontal timing      vertical timing
 "640x480"   25     640  672  768  800    480  490  492  525
#######

                The new monitor is a "1024x768 i" monitor (from dell as well)
                     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                If anyone has any ideas, I could surely use them
(Mailing me a shrink wrapped Xconfig that works would certainly be a bonus)
:)  ( note: I'm running Xfree-86 1.2 -> it's grrrreat !)
                        Thanks !!

                        -Lance  

(If anyone is interested I'll mail ya anything that I get !)

The WD90Cxx chipset isn't yet supported for interlaced modes.  It should
work in the next release of X386.

Please follow the comp.windows.x.i386unix newsgroup for more information.
