Hi Folks,
I have an X problem (I always get nailed with X problems). I did a
new Progeny Debian install (which uses XFree86 4.0, which detected my
Video card - a 3D labs permedia, and, I guess is using that driver.
XF86Config-4 has the right modes, horizontal and vertical refresh for
the monitor (an LCD panel.)
The color once X is started (true of GNOME or KDE) is, well, off. The
gradient background doesn't look right, the mouse is a wierd green
color. About once every 4 times, X gives a blank white screen, and I
have to ssh in and kill X.
So I think that the X driver I am using isn't the right one - but I'm
not sure about how to go about fixing this - the generic VGA driver
does not work.
Suggestions?
Michelle
