- I recently upgraded my vga ultra et4000 videocard to another vga ultra
- et4000 that has hiclock & hicolor (65k colors) chips . After the upgrade
- when I exit X it doesn't restore text mode properly there is some wierd
- lines and when I try hard enought I can figure out that it is some sort of
- text. Linux stays up and when I type something it goes ok. I can even start
- X again and it comes up ok, but when I quit the text isn't ok.
-
- heres' my configuration:
-
- machine : forex 486dx 33Mhz 8Mb
- v-card : vga ultra + hiclock & hicolor (65k colors)
- monitor : TVM md-17 mediascan 6a digital
- i/o : chicony ch-101b multi i/o ( 2xfloppy 2xhd 2xserial 1x parallel)
- disks : a: 1.2M b: 1.44M hda maxtor 7213at hdb wdac2200 caviar
-
- Linux 0.99 pl2
- XFree86 Version 1.1
-
- when starting X it gives:
-
-
- no SIOCGIFCONF
- XFree86 Version 1.1 / X Window System
- (protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 5000)
- Configured drivers:
- VGA256 (256 colour SVGA):
- et4000, et3000, pvga1, gvga, ati, tvga8900
- VGA256: et4000 (mem: 1024k numclocks: 16)
- VGA256: clocks: 25 28 32 36 40 45 0 37 50 57 65 72 80 90 63 75
- VGA256: SpeedUp code selection modified because virtualX != 1024
- VGA256: SpeedUp mode selected (Flags=0xf)
